+
+## Portable User Configuration
+
+If you want OrcaSlicer to use a custom user configuration folder (e.g., for a portable installation), you can simply place a folder named `data_dir` next to the OrcaSlicer executable. OrcaSlicer will automatically use this folder as its configuration directory.
+
+This allows for multiple self-contained installations with separate user data.
+
+> [!TIP]
+> This feature is especially useful if you want to run OrcaSlicer from a USB stick or keep different profiles isolated.
+
+### Example folder structure
+
+```shell
+OrcaSlicer.exe
+data_dir/
+```
+
+You don’t need to recompile or modify any settings — this works out of the box as long as `data_dir` exists in the same folder as the executable.
