I don't run Windows any longer, but could you put the Aspell stuff in
the same directory as the Lyx code on a USB stick? Many programs will
look first in the directory the program is running in before seeking
an external location, after all.
Anyway, just an idle thought about a (rather messy!) wo

Copy the C:\Aspell zip file from the J: device over to

rnatively, create a directory on your desktop called (e.g.
PortableLyX) install everything in there (msys, python, lyx, etc.) and drag the
