Running your code from external Drive(maybe USB) needs to take care about the OS mapping letter to your external drive.
Which is for sure different per OS
If it is H:\ in Windows 7 for example that does not mean it will be H:\ again in Windows 8 and so on
You must know your drive assigning letter before past it to your code
hi RASHAD , i think i solved it with PureBasic's PathRequester ( Browse for Folder )
PathRequester seems to work in Vista , Win7, Win8.0, Win10 tested so far with Jump Drives and External Drives
will test more today with Win-XP Computers ... but so far so good !

ScreenShot : i let User choose "PathRequester" Browse for Folder / Path as 1st choice
