I have that problem too, with a bridge running in the tor browser under
windows. I have to is to save the torrc,  delete the tor browser,
reinstall it anew, replace torrc, and restart. This is really a pain, I
lose bridge flags whenever I install a browser or OS update.

This doesn't happen when I run a tor client. There the browser updates
go fine, the browser restarts itself as expected. - eliaz
