How can I force BitMessage to use Portable Mode by DEFAULT?

opened this issue · comments

Portable Mode should be default; if not, BM will create BM files to the system itself(when first run). Forensics will know the user is using BM from these files/write to the system.

You can create a basic keys.dat in the same directory as Bitmessage.exe and then run it.

@verycrypt, this is the wiki article about keys.dat. Not sure what basic means here.

I don't know off the top of my head what the minimal requirements for portable mode keys.dat are. Maybe creating an empty one is sufficient but I'm not sure.
