Comment (by denial):

 Hello,

 i have same error:

 Torbutton: Unexpected error on new identity: [Exception... "Component
 returned failure code: 0x80520015 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED)
 [nsIPrefService.savePrefFile]"  nsresult: "0x80520015
 (NS_ERROR_FILE_ACCESS_DENIED)"  location: "JS frame ::
 chrome://torbutton/content/torbutton.js :: torbutton_do_new_identity ::
 line 1202"  data: no]

 when i try to create a New Identity.
 However i found out, that also no settings are saved.

 I'm using Windows 7 SP1 64-bit, latest patches, and latest TorBrowser
 7.0.11

 I deleted whole torbrowser folder and downloaded fresh installation file
 and installed it and same issue.
 I downloaded zipped torbrowser from another computer where it works and on
 my computer - same issue.

 I ran procmon and i think this is the related error:

 13:18:42,3674148        firefox.exe     6840    SetRenameInformationFile
 C:\Run\Tor
 Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\profile.default\prefs-1.js
 ACCESS DENIED   ReplaceIfExists: True, FileName: C:\Run\Tor
 Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\profile.default\prefs.js



 This is from a working computer:

 1:22:11.4822217 PM      firefox.exe     3404    SetRenameInformationFile
 C:\Run\Tor
 Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\profile.default\prefs-1.js
 SUCCESS ReplaceIfExists: True, FileName: C:\Run\Tor
 Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\profile.default\prefs.js



 Please note:
 i have no antivirus, i'm logged in/running all apps as administrator, the
 folder is writable, the disk is not full.

 Thanks.



 EDIT:
 I have just found out that when i disable malwarebytes antiransomware
 0.9.18.807-1.1.129 ... then it is working.
