I haven't tried it, but a google for "portable apps lyx" gave me: http://portableapps.com/node/9772 The page is hard to read, but it appears that it changes the registry and then changes it back afterwards. The are also Linux Live CDs that you could boot which would presumably have zero interest in the windows registry http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/LiveCDs -- John C.
