#13150: Windows Tor Launcher trying to connect 9151 control port always, instead of

Comment (by VasiliyPetrov):
The main problem of #13150 ticket (Tor Launcher problem) is because of
control port is put (and not changed) in the extension .xpi archive:
.\Data\Browser\profile.default\extensions\tor-launcher@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
and the file inside this (zip) archive:
:\defaults\preferences
pref("extensions.torlauncher.control_host", "127.0.0.1");
pref("extensions.torlauncher.control_port", 9151);
(!)
And this setting is not overrided by any other possible way.
So, when TBB starting first time, it is reading a ControlPort from... xpi
file!
Why it cannot be overrided?
Something like extension-overrides.js, I do not know.
I'm sure that it is can be fixed.
So you will be able to configure all ports without so long and difficult
story...
(For example, currently I'm sure, that if I will make a default
installation, then change a files like I wrote in the ticket/first
comments and *then change a port inside .xpi archive*, it will work. I did
not checked, but I'm sure that it will work).
