A tiny launcher that runs Creality Print in portable mode.

Instead of storing your configuration in the Windows user profile (%APPDATA%), all profile settings are saved in a profile folder right next to the application — perfect for USB sticks, shared machines, or keeping multiple independent Creality Print setups side by side.

Features

  • ✅ Truly portable: all settings live in a local profile folder
  • ✅ No installation, no registry entries, no admin rights required
  • ✅ Take your printer profiles, filament presets, and settings with you on a USB drive
  • ✅ Run multiple independent Creality Print configurations on the same PC

Executable for running CrealityPrint in portable mode Profile settings will be saved in profile folder

Installation

  1. Download and unzip Creality Print from the official releases page: https://github.com/CrealityOfficial/CrealityPrint/releases
  2. Copy CrealityPrintPortableStarter.exe into your Creality Print folder (next to the original CrealityPrint.exe)
  3. Run CrealityPrintPortableStarter.exe

That's it — Creality Print starts in portable mode, and a profile folder is created next to the executable to hold all of your settings.

How it works

The starter simply launches Creality Print with the --datadir command line argument:

CrealityPrint.exe --datadir profile

This tells Creality Print to read and write all configuration data to the local profile folder instead of the current user's %APPDATA% directory.

Building from source

  1. Open CrealityPrintPortable.sln in Visual Studio (2017 or newer)
  2. Select the Release configuration and build the solution
  3. The executable is created in CrealityPrintPortable\bin\Release\
