New description:

 When testing the Windows nightly builds I got greeted with an error page
 on first start
 {{{
      <title>&aboutTor.title;</title>
 ------------^
 }}}
 This happened with a 32bit de bundle and I can't reproduce this on Linux.
 Moreover if I open `about:tor` in a new tab it works. From the second
 start on the `about:tor` page is shown as well.

 Furthermore, after the second session Tor Browser is stuck on an endless
 reload cycle when visiting websites and other extensions are broken.

Comment:

 So, it turns out that the endless reload cycle and broken extensions
 (#27261) are very likely caused by the same underlying issue as this bug:
 they don't appear once I set `security.sandbox.content.level` to `2` but
 appear as soon again as I set it to `3` or above.

 So, I closed #27261 as duplicate.
