Let's address the sensitive part. Adobe has never officially released a portable version of Photoshop. The "Lite Portable" releases available online are almost always unauthorized repacks created by third-party groups.
Assuming you have acquired the legitimate latest package (or are a developer testing it), here is the standard deployment:
Pro Tip: Create a PortableSettings folder inside the same directory. This stores your custom keyboard shortcuts (Photoshop Keyboard Shortcuts.psp), saving you from reconfiguring each time.

"Photoshop Lite" or "Photoshop Portable" refers to unauthorized variants of Adobe Photoshop that have been "portablized"—modified to run directly from a USB drive or folder without a traditional installation.

Independent tests comparing the latest Photoshop CC Lite Portable against the full CC 2025 installation on the same mid-range laptop (Intel i5-1135G7, 8 GB RAM, Intel Iris Xe graphics) yielded surprising results:
