I've got a small question, can one run DOSBox without installing it? Say from a thumb/flash drive? I'd like to make it a bit more portable and be able to play my DOSGames around without having to install DOSBox and then the games on foreign computers.

Is this possible?

I think it should run without problems as long as config file is writeable.

Intel i7 5960X
Gigabye GA-X99-Gaming 5
8 GB DDR4 (2100)
8 GB GeForce GTX 1070 G1 Gaming (Gigabyte)
