I didn't delete or do anything special, just renamed the dir. After the
rename, I tried several times but it just continued to skip the tor
connection part/dialog completely. I ended up just deleting those TB
instances, and set up two (64/32bit) brand new legacy 8.5.5's with updates
disabled. I also set up two version 9 stables, and I have my two alphas.
FWIW, on all six, I cannot replicate: make a copy, rename dir, start, and
I always get success (i.e tor connection dialog etc, browsing works).
Maybe I'm weird, because the extensions (NS, HTTPS-E) also load and work
the first time.
So IDK what went on, and I no longer have the originals which were
initially clean v8.0 setups with updates. Chalk it up to experience :)
