I'd like to start the habit of sharing the music that I am listening to while writing up my posts. I would be happy to read them in the comments. Let me know if you have any alternative solutions.
I have also posted this information on the nvm-windows issue requesting for a portable version #363

If you are still reading then here is my working (very hacky) solution to get NodeJS portable!

Or maybe just in a non-restricted directory? So you want to use NodeJS on a portable flash drive?
