you know that is it possible create an official "Portable Arduino IDE Edition" simply by create a directory named "portable" inside the Arduino directory.

But in this case when you try to locate your sketch location we have 3 different behavior on the 3 supported operating systems.

Go under: File > Preferences > Sketchbook location, and whit the Browse button try to locate your Sketch folder, this is the results:

  • On Linux (Xubuntu 15.10)
    . you can choose every directory you need, everywhere in the file systems
  • On Windows (Win7)
    . you can choose every directory BUT only on the same partition where is the Arduino IDE (if you have it on C:\ is it not possible select a sketchbook dir present on D:)
  • On Mac (OS X 10.11.1)
    . you can choose ONLY a dir inside the "portable" folder, if you try to change the selection you receive error like explained in this topic by gpb01
