Comment:

 The data directory answer doesn't cover all the possible data directory
 locations.
 For example, it's missing the macOS TBB location.
 Please provide the data directory location for every torrc location
 mentioned in the torrc section.

 You also added the $HOME/.tor data directory location, but there's no
 corresponding torrc location.

 But if you duplicate all the TBB information, it might get out of sync.

 It might be better to update each torrc alternative so that it covers the
 data directory as well.

 For example:
 * If you installed Tor Browser on Windows or Linux, the torrc file is in
 the data directory, which is Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Tor inside your Tor
 Browser directory.
 * Otherwise, if you are using Tor without Tor Browser … package. For most
 systems, the data directory is /var/lib/tor/.

 Please also consistently use code tags throughout the answer, rather than
 using car tags for new content.
