----------------------------+------------------------------------------
 Following upgrade to Tor Browser 9.0, extensions fail to load if Tor
 Browser is used as a portable application i.e. when launch directory path
 changes. Event occurs on Windows 10 1903 update with all extensions,
 including NoScript and EFF-HTTPS Everywhere. Disabling/Enabling extensions
 has no effect. Extensions can be re-added under new path; extension
 settings do not carry over, and extensions fail again upon subsequent path
 change.

 Issue tested on separate Windows 10 device with 1903, extensions also fail
 to load. When path is changed back to original setting from before
 upgrade, extensions load normally again.

 about:debugging displays the Extension ID for all previously installed
 extensions, but no other information is available. Issue cannot be
 recreated in Tor Browser 8.5.5.
