This is just an example, you may not have all these emulators installed and as well there will of course be many more files and directories than those listed above inside the F:\EmulationStation-DE directory.
This is just an example as you may of course not use these specific emulators. There are also many more emulators supported as described below. As well there will be many more files and directories than those listed above inside the F:\EmulationStation-DE directory.
How the portable setup works is that when ES-DE finds a file named portable.txt in its executable directory, it will by default locate the .emulationstation directory directly inside this folder. It's also possible to modify portable.txt with a path relative to the ES-DE executable directory. For instance if two dots `..` are placed inside the portable.txt file, then the .emulationstation directory will be located in the parent folder, which would be directly under F:\ in this example.

If the --home command line parameter is passed when starting ES-DE, that will override the portable.txt file.
