Comment (by arlolra): Tor Messenger on Windows is a portable application, meaning the profile is installed in the directory alongside the rest of the application, and thus requiring those permissions to modify it. My suggestion would be to uninstall what your currently have (ie. remove the directory) and then reinstall the application, not as administrator, but as a regular user in a directory it has access to, like the desktop. It's the same procedure as for Tor Browser, https://www.torproject.org/projects/torbrowser.html.en#windows -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/21870#comment:2> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online _______________________________________________ tor-bugs mailing list tor-bugs@lists.torproject.org https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-bugs
