***WARNING*** As of this writing only the standard build available. No portable or slim.
I am not downloading this until a portable version is available.

“The devs have decided to delay the portable version until the slim release. it is unclear if this is just for this version or going forward but this is a test trial of this policy.”
I am considering switching to Privacy Eraser. If anyone is/has used this please chime in.
