Comment (by pospeselr):
Updated patch now explicitly checking for the 'active' pref and deleting
an existing jumplist if so: https://gitweb.torproject.org/user/richard
/tor-
browser.git/diff/?h=bug_12885_v2&id2=8bc2ca14f51f4b57efcadd6f7405e0a4d48f2204&context=8&ignorews=0&dt=0
This patch should also partially fix the disk leak associated with Jump
Lists; jump list entries are stored in a binary file in
%APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent\CustomDestinations which contain
identifying strings. It would seem the existing _deleteActiveJumpList()
function at least 'clears' the file, and the filename of the store is
dependent on install location (so there's not a globally unique Tor
Browser jumplist store file you can look for).
