TB 3 beta does not run in different directory then default install

Hi,

I was wondering why my TB3 beta did not run after installation into my email directory (F:\E_M_L). After I installed it into default subdir

f:\E_M_L\ThunderbirdPortableTest\

it worked o.k. Is it done for purpose or is there bug in installer or Thunderbird portable.exe?

Conflicting files?

Do you have any conflicting files in there which could have made it not work properly? App? Data? Other? ThunderbirdPortable.exe?

Hello, There is no message at

Hello,

There is no message at all. It just flashes for a moment window of the portable launcher and then it does nothing. when looking for TB in services there is no TB service running. It looks like TB portable launcher did not launched the TB.

Addition

I have tried to run as well Thunderbird.exe by clicking on the exe in \app\thunderbird but it did not run either.
