So you shouldn't manually (have to) edit this file; I expect trying to get your problem fixed using this route won't work. 
This file is located in /Program files (x86)/Arduino .
But the file i need to replace is the per-user version preferences.txt file located in /Users/Username/Local/AppData/Arduino15 .Which i think i've missed up with it.

The preferences inside portable isn't what i really look for .
Idk, Where can i find files which prepare Serial and Network ports to show it in Arduino IDE ?
The upload via network port is working well using command prompt.
