This is where the specific version V16 becomes critical. TIA Portal Dependency: Toolbox V16 requires TIA Portal V16
If you download this, you may find it useless even if it works. Industrial software has strict Firmware Compatibility Matrices.
Do not try to make TIA Portal itself portable. Instead, make the operating system portable.
Now, you can plug that SSD into any laptop with 16GB+ RAM and VMware Player, and you have a fully functional, portable 840D sl engineering environment.
For those who prefer local installation rather than VMs, you can create a silent install batch file.
Place the Toolbox_SINUMERIK_840D_sl_V16.exe on a USB drive with a install.bat file containing:
Toolbox_SINUMERIK_840D_sl_V16.exe /quiet /norestart
Note: This requires that TIA Portal V16 is already present on the target machine.
