[liberationtech] Help test the new Tor Browser!

[Masayuki Hatta]

Hi,

I tried torbrowser-install-3.0-alpha-1_en-US.exe on Windows 7 Home Premium
64bit (Japan edition), but it doesn't run at all.  Installation went well,
but double-clicking on "Start Tor Browser" icon doesn't start things off,
nothing happens (seems trying something for a while, but crashes
silently).  Is this known problem or am I the only one? I have two 64bit
Win7 machines, and suffer from the same problem.  Things from the current
tor-browser-2.3.25-8_en-US.exe is working nicely for a long time, so I
guess something wrong in the new Tor Browser Launcher...

Please let me know if there's something I can try.

Best regards,
MH
