[tor-relays] tor relay issue on windows 10

[William Kane]

Hi,

first of all, don't run it as admin, create a dedicated user and strip
privileges.

Usually if something goes horribly wrong, i.e. an app crashes, Windows
will write to the event log (Windows Logs -> Application).

Look for events with an event source of "Application Error" such as:

"Faulting application name: <binary>, version: <version>, time stamp: <stamp>"

If such an entry is created, please include the following four fields
in your reply:

Exception code, Fault offset, Faulting application path, Faulting module path.

If no such entry is created and the process closes anyway, then you
might have to debug it yourself - I'll explain how once you confirmed
it's not crashing.
