 I wasn't thinking in my re-test, it helps to **not** leave the original
 dir lying around **:facepalm:** - on Windows with `9.0` (and I did not
 delete any files)

 First run after dir rename
 - the extension icons are gone in customize and about:addons
 - console errors eg `Error while loading
 'jar:file:///D:/TBTest/TB1/Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Browser/profile.default/extensions/...`
 - `torcc` file shows the original path `TB1`, not the new path `TB2`

 Second (and subsequent) run after dir rename:
 - NoScript seems fine: no console errors, icons present, test with safest
 setting did not execute JS
 - **HTTPS-E is not**: same console error, missing icon in customize and
 about:addons
 - `torcc` file updated to new path `TB2`

 see below the first line is looking for `TB1`, but `TB2`
