I'm using now the latest TB version with multiple profiles.
Unfortunately I downloaded and installed an english version. After recognizing
my error, i tried to install the french version without uninstalling the english
version. It seemed to work until I restarted TB again - it reappeared in english
again in all the profiles.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Installing the english TB-Version 1.0.6 (over an elder TB-version in french
1.0.4)
2. Installing the french Version 1.0.6
3. TB starts with the Profile Window in french.
4. TB opens in french language.
5. Close TB (fichier -> fermer => engl. file -> close)
6. Restart TB - everything appears again in english.

Actual Results:  
Still is everything in english.

Expected Results:  
It should accept the french version.

Reporter, does the issue still occur in the latest supported 2.0.0.x / Shredder trunk nightlies?

(1.5.0.x is now end-of-life and the latest supported 2.0.0.x is 2.0.0.16)
