Natively Portable, Enhancements 3k3x3u

While Isotoxin is natively portable, our package contains a few enhancements. In addition to being in portableapps.isosite.org Format for easy backups and upgrades, this package is designed to keep its profile backups, temporary message handling directory, and temporary image send directories self-contained within the Data directory instead of stored on the local machine's TEMP path, enhancing privacy and security. The paths are automatically adjusted as the app is moved.

I chose Isotoxin as our first Tox app as both qTox and uTox have issues with their portable implementation and can leak data to the local machine. We can clean it up afterwards with our launcher in both cases, but Isotoxin allowed for a cleaner implementation.

Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!

A bit far from the ideal 1o391r

This application has a built-in update that can not be used in the portable version (wants to install into programfiles, writes data to the profile, after restarting the data of some s are broken). And still it falls while saving some settings, although this is more likely a claim to the authors of the application (it reminds the crooked ekiga product).
I apologize for criticism.
