#9558: Windows: Tor browser bundle fails to start if working directory isn't set
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 Reporter:  ericlaw  |          Owner:  chiiph       
     Type:  defect   |         Status:  new          
 Priority:  normal   |      Milestone:               
Component:  Vidalia  |        Version:  Tor: 0.2.3.25
 Keywords:           |         Parent:               
   Points:           |   Actualpoints:               
---------------------+------------------------------------------------------
 If you start the Tor browser bundle directly (e.g.
 ShellExecute("c:\tools\tor browser\start tor browser.exe") without setting
 the working directory, an error message is shown:

 ---------------------------
 Error Starting Tor
 ---------------------------
 <p>Vidalia was unable to start Tor. Check your settings to ensure the
 correct name and location of your Tor executable is specified.</p>
 ---------------------------
 Show Settings   Cancel   Help

 StartTorBrowser.exe should be smart enough to use its own directory as the
 default path.

 C:\tools\tor-browser-2.3.25-12_en-US.exe
