portable version vs installer version

When you try to download something you may find the Portable version and the Extended version,
and you will ask the difference between them.
alright, we will tell you the difference between them in good points and bad points.

Before that let me give a little introduction about this.
The extended versions create a folder in programs files and will put the DLL files in "C:\Windows\System32\etc" path, creating a desktop icon and in start menu also.
The portable versions can be started without to be installed and no modification will be applied to your computer.

Good Points:

► Portable Version:
- Don't need to be installed.
- Don't take a lot of time to start.
- Can be used on any computer.
- Can be put on a USB.
- Portable version package already contains the needed DLLs into the app.
- You can run it in a VM (Virtual Machine).
- Friendly to weak computers.

► Extended Version:
- Can be updated and this is the most important thing.
- You don't lose your work and you can save it anytime.
- Don't use big space from RAM.

Bad Points:

► Portable Version:
- Don't get updates.
- Saving the work in temp folder and you lose all your work after closing the software.
- Use the big part of the RAM.

► Extended Version:
- Even when you uninstall it, the program will leave trash on your computer.
