From #4336:
> I usually run Tor in a Win7 user account and have been running a
0.2.2.33 relay without any problems. Now the updated 0.2.2.34 Tor crashes
after running for about a minute.
>
> To upgrade I shut down the running 0.2.2.33 relay and switched to the
system's admin account. I uninstalled the existing Vidalia Bundle and
installed vidalia-relay-bundle-0.2.2.34-0.2.15.exe.
>
> I switched back to the user account and ran Vidalia, using the existing
Tor and Vidalia config files. First problem: Vidalia can't find the Tor
executable because the installation location has changed. I pointed
Vidalia to the correct location.
We may have a ticket or three dozen open for this already, but we
''really'' need the system-wide installable bundles to really be installed
system-wide.
