How to install scikit-learn for Portable Python?

While I am trying to install scikit-learn for my portable python, its saying " Python 2.7 is not found in the registry". In the next window, it does ask for an installation path but neither am I able to copy-paste the path nor write it manually. Otherwise please suggest some other alternative for portable python which has numpy, scipy and scikit-learn by default. Please note that I don't have administrative rights of the system so a portable version is preferred.

From my other answer:

Since you are using Portable Python, the best way to install modules is to use easy install. Go to your Portable Python folder directory: Portable Python 2.7.6.1.

Next open a command prompt in that location by Shift + Right Click.

Then type the following:

App\Scripts\easy_install.exe YourModuleNameHere

Example to install scikit-learn:

App\Scripts\easy_install.exe scikit-learn 

enter code here`enter code here`enter code here`

In case you're on Windows, WinPython is a 64bit portable distribution that contains scikit-learn as an optional component. Afaik, this is the only 64 bit distribution with the scipy stack for Windows.

you can easily download SciKit executable, extract it with python, copy SciKit folder and content to c:\Portable Python 2.7.5.1\App\Lib\site-packages\ and you'll have SciKit in your portable python. I just had this problem and solved this way.

you can download the new portable python setup from the http://koen.me/research/teaching-asci/PortablePython.zip . This setup already contains the scikit-learn.
