Federico,Thank you for the info.I have been using USB to install lilypond. But 
I have not try to use it an another computer. I will try to use it on another 
computer to check it out.I have lilypond v2.19.49, to v2.19.56 on my USB drive 
and there is no problem to do the frecobaldi lilypond preference.  I installed 
v2.19.57 on the same USB, it said install complete. I assume every thing is OK. 
 When try to do frecobaldi lilypond preference, it failed. Later I check the 
directory of the USB, v2.19.57 is there, but there is no content it it.  That 
is why doing frecobaldi lilypond preference failed. I seems that the USB is 
full. I plan to unstall older version, say v2.19.49, v2.19.50, v2.19.51 and 
install v2.19.57 again onto the USB to check if the frecobalri lilypond 
preference fails or not. Ming.

I had the same problem years ago. I wanted to have LilyPond and 
Frescobaldi installed on a USB stick because I needed to use in a 
computer where I could not install any software.

I think I asked for help on lilypond-user, bat cannot find it in the 
archive.
I vaguely remember that the error was due to lilypond "relocation".
