Comment (by arlolra):

 Tor Messenger on Windows is a portable application, meaning the profile is
 installed in the directory alongside the rest of the application, and thus
 requiring those permissions to modify it.

 My suggestion would be to uninstall what your currently have (ie. remove
 the directory) and then reinstall the application, not as administrator,
 but as a regular user in a directory it has access to, like the desktop.

 It's the same procedure as for Tor Browser,
