This was caused by the portable update url pointing to the portable zip instead of installer. I have updated the repository and my test now did download deskshell portable and then installed it.
I have produced an updated application you can test: http://deskshell.org/downloads/portable-hello-world.zip
from appjs-deskshell.
Yes, now it works, after download it starts the setup.
Thx

Great, good it now works!

This keeps happening to me as well.
Can you please describe explicitly what needs to be done to prevent this?
I even tried using the app.nsi file from the hello-world demo, but this did not help.
The resulting EXE is meant to be self-contained without the supporting src files, correct?
Thank you.
from appjs-deskshell.
The resulting EXE still uses deskshell to access chrome (chrome takes up around 100 meg), the exe looks for deskshell in a number of locations and it is even possible to pop up a message box if the user does not have deskshell installed and ask them to install it.
If you want to have everything self contained then put deskshell portable in the directory beside your application. There are various options for exactly how you want to lay everything out, take a look in app.nsi file, it is a plain text file, NSIS has a little strange syntax but is quite usable and hackable if you want to do something custom for your app (http://nsis.sourceforge.net/). It is meant as an installer technology but I am using it to create an exe that launches deskshell and gives it the files in the src directory.
