 If communication between firefox.exe and tor.exe was intercepted for some
 reason during start, then
 > The error message "Could not connect to Tor control port." is displayed
 after Tor Launcher (part of Tor Browser) fails to connect to the Tor
 control port for 30 seconds.
 But it usually happens when security suite asks users for permissions for
 these applications. And often 30 sec are not enough to create rules. So,
 Tor Launcher needs an option to manually continue the startup process
 instead of showing "Waiting for Tor to start...".
