Tor does not start at boot on Windows Vista

Tor does not start at boot on Windows Vista. Vidalia beeps and says that Tor has not started. There is nothing in Vidalia's event log on either side. Starting Tor Browser works.

This is about Tor Browser Bundle that I installed.

Was this the Vidalia Bundle, or the Tor Browser Bundle? Tor in TBB isn't supposed to start at boot. Your report has too many contradictions for me to guess whether there's something wrong or you're just misunderstanding things.

I think it's TBB, and the bug is that Vidalia's "start me on boot" checkbox is not removed for TBB. But when Vidalia gets started on boot, it doesn't have the TBB launch script, so the world breaks.

It's unclear what bundle used, but Vidalia is deprecated and Tor in TBB isn't supposed to start at boot. 3 years since question was asked, no answer.
