Comment:

 bug_13558 in my public tor-browser repo should have a fix for this issue.
 I tested it with a modified build on a Windows 7 machine and both without
 a patch and with Jacek's first patch the Tor Browser was crashing on
 changing the download folder while that was not the case anymore with the
 patch that landed on mozilla-central.
