Comment(by mo):

 Again, if you point to a tor.exe in a different bundle, it will use the
 other bundle's torrc (and likely get confused over it). This is not what
 you want.

 I still don't fully understand what you're after. There is a new alpha
 bundle, 2.4.10-alpha-2, that brings the same Tor Browser as 2.3.25-4. If
 you want to use other Tor versions for whatever reason, copy the tor.exe
 to "App" inside the bundle you want to use.

 If you want to do more experiments, start over with newly extracted
 bundles. Looks like you did change stuff, otherwise there would not be any
 torrc.orig.1.

 Your original report describes exactly this: Tor Browser is configured to
 use a different port than the tor.exe/torrc pair you point Vidalia at. Not
 a bug.
