Vidalia/tor not working after a forced close

Using: tor-browser-2.3.25-2_en-USI

was using the tor browser bundle succesfully.

When I restarted my windows 8 pc before manually closing it, it forced closed vidalia/tor.After the reboot I was no longer able to run tor browser.

Here is the log:``` jan 28 14:46:13.082 [Notice] Tor v0.2.3.25 (git-17c24b3118224d65) running on Windows 8. jan 28 14:46:13.082 [Notice] Tor can't help you if you use it wrong!

 * I have never installed tor as a service or used it in any other way except as part of the bundle.
 * I have checked running processes and also services in task manager and tor is not there.
 * I have tried rebooting once more.
 * I have tried deleting the tor browser folder and downloading it again.
 * I have tried changing port settings in vidalia.
 * I have tried starting the bundle with windows firewall disabled
 * I have tried the alpha version tor-browser-2.4.7-alpha-1_en-US

None of the above worked.At this point the browser bundle is unusable for me, very strange for a portable application to not recover after a machine reboot.
