What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.

[When enabling portable mode by putting portable.txt in the folder where the exe is stored, Dolphin fails to start up correctly and hangs with a blank window that isn't responding to messages or interactions]

What steps will reproduce the problem?

[Be on 5.0-17762 and try to enable portable mode by putting a empty txt file named portable.txt in the folder where you have Dolphin.exe. Try to start the program and notice that the program fails to start up correctly and instead hangs with a empty window]

Is the issue present in the latest development version? For future reference, please also write down the version number of the latest development version.

[Version number here]

Is the issue present in the latest stable version?

[5.0-17762]

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

[First broken version number here (if applicable)]

If your issue is a graphical issue, please attach screenshots and record a three frame fifolog of the issue if possible. Screenshots showing what it is supposed to look like from either console or older builds of Dolphin will help too. For more information on how to use the fifoplayer, please check here: https://wiki.dolphin-emu.org/index.php?title=FifoPlayer

[Attach any fifologs if possible, write a description of fifologs and screenshots here to assist people unfamiliar with the game.]

What are your PC specifications? (CPU, GPU, Operating System, more)

[Ryzen 7 5700X, Radeon RX 5700XT, Windows 11 22621.675]

Is there anything else that can help developers narrow down the issue? (e.g. logs, screenshots,
configuration files, savefiles, savestates)
