nemyax, I'm not sure about need to play with boot.start file (I also don't think it's a good idea)
I have many Wings3d installs running in a pen-drive. I just copied the install dir from HD to the pen-drive and changed the erl.ini file (found in the same place as boot.start)
About the preferences, it's easy to change the preferences location by using a custom shortcut. Just create shortcut for Wings3d in the new location using the Windows Explorer as usual and then edit it by replacing the Destination by the werl.exe (into the bin folder) and append the parameters "-extra" like pointed by dgud in this post - it's the preferences file location.
Just note that if your preferences is already pointing to a preference_subset it will refer to its original location. In this case, you can edit your relocated preferences.txt and update the file path in it.
