 From #4336:

 > I usually run Tor in a Win7 user account and have been running a
 0.2.2.33 relay without any problems. Now the updated 0.2.2.34 Tor crashes
 after running for about a minute.
 >
 > To upgrade I shut down the running 0.2.2.33 relay and switched to the
 system's admin account. I uninstalled the existing Vidalia Bundle and
 installed vidalia-relay-bundle-0.2.2.34-0.2.15.exe.
 >
 > I switched back to the user account and ran Vidalia, using the existing
 Tor and Vidalia config files. First problem: Vidalia can't find the Tor
 executable because the installation location has changed. I pointed
 Vidalia to the correct location.

 We may have a ticket or three dozen open for this already, but we
 ''really'' need the system-wide installable bundles to really be installed
 system-wide.
