Tor Browser Bundle 4.0: updater fails on Windows
Tor Browser Updates works fine on Windows 7 32-bit, but fails on Win XP sp3 32 bit
Steps to reproduce:
-
Download and install "torbrowser-install-4.0-alpha-3_es-ES.exe" or "torbrowser-install-4.0-alpha-3_en-US.exe" in a clean directory from https://archive.torproject.org/tor-package-archive/torbrowser/4.0-alpha-3/
-
Run installed Tor Browser from created shortcut
-
Go to Help ... About Tor Browser and press "Check for updates"
-
When download finishes, click on restart to apply update
Actual results:
Tor Browser won't update and also will not start anymore.
Update files are leaved on \Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\Caches\firefox\updates\0
Expected Results:
Tor Browser should update from 4.0-aplha-3 to 4.0 stable as it does on Windows 7
Workaround: Remove update files from "...\Tor Browser\Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Browser\Caches\firefox" to let non-updated TBB run again.
