These are UNOFFICIAL portable builds of Obsidian for Windows.
NOTE: This will not allow you to run multiple versions of Obsidian alongside each other on the same machine. All Obsidian instances, whether installed or portable will share the same %AppData%
folder, and can therefore conflict with each other. This is designed for use by people who cannot or do not want to install the normal Obsidian on their machine.
If you don't want to trust an internet stranger, you can create your own portable build of Obsidian in about 5 minutes.
You must already have Obsidian installed to create a portable version of it.
