No portable version available.
You could create a batch file to run TextPad from a USB stick. But it involves writing to the registry. Set all the paths in the configuration to the USB location.
Run the batch file from the USB stick, to write to the registry, run TextPad from the stick. Undo the registry settings to leave no trail, occupy no space on the target machine.
I am sure there have been some more detailed recommendations over the past few years.... Search here for "portable" to see many earlier discussions.
