Tor Browser 6.0 is released
The Tor Browser Team is proud to announce the first stable release in the 6.0 series. This release is available from the Tor Browser Project page and also from our distribution directory.
This release brings us up to date with Firefox 45-ESR, which should mean a better support for HTML5 video on Youtube, as well as a host of other improvements.
Beginning with the 6.0 series code-signing for OS X systems is introduced. This should help our users who had trouble with getting Tor Browser to work on their Mac due to Gatekeeper interference. There were bundle layout changes necessary to adhere to code signing requirements but the transition to the new Tor Browser layout on disk should go smoothly.
The release also features new privacy enhancements and disables features where we either did not have the time to write a proper fix or where we decided they are rather potentially harmful in a Tor Browser context.
On the security side this release makes sure that SHA1 certificate support is disabled and our updater is not only relying on the signature alone but is checking the hash of the downloaded update file as well before applying it. Moreover, we provide a fix for a Windows installer related DLL hijacking vulnerability.
A note on our search engine situation: Lately, we got a couple of comments on our blog and via email wondering why we are now using DuckDuckGo as the default search engine and not Disconnect anymore. Well, we still use Disconnect. But for a while now Disconnect has no access to Google search results anymore which we used in Tor Browser. Disconnect being more a meta search engine which allows users to choose between different search providers fell back to delivering Bing search results which were basically unacceptable quality-wise. While Disconnect is still trying to fix the situation we asked them to change the fallback to DuckDuckGo as their search results are strictly better than the ones Bing delivers.
Update: We plan to post instructions for removing the OS X code signing parts on our website soon. This should make it easier to compare the OS X bundles we build with the actual bundles we ship.

Tor 6.0 & the latest Beta (6.0a5) won't start. W10x64 Pro non-domain.
Have tried different folders, removed and re-ran but the browser just won't open. Disabling AVG makes no difference. Tried running as admin but didn't make any difference. Restarted system, removed FireFox and so on but still won't open. Some previous versions still work but could do with prominent links to previous versions as I don't like using a really old version.

One thing: when restarting after upgrade, TorBrowser did not take care of the window size. ie: it started taking all my screen, and not the usual size.
Restarted TBB again, and everything seems fine.

*Important*
I think this new version (6.0) is dangerously giving away the user's screen resolution when JavaScript is enabled (the default behavior).
New behavior (you can easily test this on the console):
Old behavior (this is the "right behavior", where window size and screen resolution the same and standardized):

Well, you can test what real
Well, you can test what real websites are seeing if they try to extract the above values by visiting http://browserspy.dk/screen.php. And there I still see the rounded values with a fresh 6.0 on a Windows 7 box for example.
You're right: real websites
You're right: real websites only can access the standardized Tor window size values. Only browser pages (like blank or about:tor) are showing the real resolution values.
That's one odd behavior compared to previous versions, but it is not giving away the revolution as I was supposing before. I checked with https://www.browserleaks.com/javascript

Sure, Tor Browser on Windows 10 is rather pointless for most use cases of tor.
...How exactly is a VPN any better? You're still going to leak the same info. If you've got to use Windows 10 securely, I'd suggest using it behind a firewall that blocks access to most/all of Microsoft. Then you can use Tor Browser without fear (at least from Win10's tracking.)

Is there currently no way to
Is there currently no way to view my cookies?
Tor Button used to have a nice list where I could "protect" certain cookies and have them last across sessions, while others were ephemeral. Is that feature gone for good?
Also, recent previous versions of Tor Browser have no had a "show cookies" button in the standard place firefox does (unless I'm mistaken?) but this new version does have the button. Unfortunately, it shows a window with no cookies.
This is particularly misleading! Many Tor Browser users I've talked to assume that Tor Browser completely "disables cookies". Showing them an empty list of cookies reenforces this incorrect belief.
Thanks for all your hard work! Other than the cookie thing this seems like a great release.

You go post this answer because your system wouldn't let me!
"When 5.5 and 5.5.5 came out I updated within hours or less and went to panopticlick and I was amazed at the improvement. I must have been one of the first few and it was down to 5xx something. With 6 it is more than double. I redownloaded 5.5.5 again and it is still the same rating I got back ... a month or more ago. So your theory does not hold water. eff can't tell what browser you are using in specific just a version of FF and your OS.
One thing to watch for is your plugins, most will reveal identity information (identifiers) which group you with users with same FF plugins.
Based on the same use though why would 6 be inferior to 5.5.5?"

tyvm for the reply. as far as i can tell the installation is self contained in the one directory and not in the registry? there was no uninstall that i could find...Tor Browser isnt listed in Programs.

Meek pluggable transport not
Meek pluggable transport not working on OS X. meek-client-torbrowser proxy is not launching.
Probably due to new directory structure, noted /Applications/TorBrowser.app/Contents/Resources/TorBrowser/Tor/PluggableTransports/template-profile.meek-http-helper

/Applications/TorBrowser.app/Contents/MacOS/Tor/PluggableTransports/meek-client-torbrowser
Maybe the link to the transport has not been updated for the new setup or in torrc.
Other proxies work.
In 5.5, meek was only located in /Applications/TorBrowser.app/TorBrowser/Tor/PluggableTransports/meek-client-torbrowser and worked.
This error occurs on a fresh install of 6.0.

In Tor Browser 6.0, the template-profile.meek-http-helper directory contents should be copied to TorBrowser-Data/Tor/PluggableTransports/profile.meek-http-helper by the meek client when it starts up. If the original commenter is still having problems, they should open a trac ticket so we can discuss this problem and investigate further.

Note to all OSX users
Note to all OSX users encountering similar error: make sure before upgrade/clean install for 6.0+ that user installing has sudo privileges.

Maybe we should think
Maybe we should think carefully when consulting ip-check.info.
Since with TOR 6.0, when checking on ip-check.info, I was getting an orange and a red rating for Signature and User-Agent respectively I decided to reinstall TOR 5.5.5 and check the results again.
The Signature ‘Orange’ rating for TOR 6.0 becomes a ‘Green’ rating for TOR 5.5.5 showing EXACTLY the SAME ‘Value’.
In the case of User Agent the only difference between the Green rating for TOR 5.5.5 and a Red rating for TOR 6.0 is that for TOR 5.5.5 38.0 appears under Value and for TOR 6.0 that changes to 45.0.
Keep up the good work.

This isn't a Tor bug, but a
This isn't a Tor bug, but a Youtube one.
I was using 5.5.5 to surf Youtube without issue (each time using a fresh Tor extraction), then a few days ago HTML5 started to crash reliably after watching a few videos (does the same with v6.0).
Getting a "new identity" didn't fix the issue. You have to shut it down, kill Firefox in task manager, and restart in order to view HTML5 videos again (non-video websites still work).
Obviously Youtube made a change that is crashing Tor (since I used a fresh Tor extraction each time for weeks without issue).
For security reasons it's probably a good idea to restart as much as possible when getting a new identity, especially HTML5, so settings/cache/bugs/and other data aren't retained, and this would provide a fix to not only this issue, but countless others.

Tor browser now fullscreens
Tor browser now fullscreens itself rather than keeping to a standard size for greater anonymity.
I imagine this isn't seen in most common setups (unless it's a deliberate change). But I'm using a tiling WM (XMonad), and the behaviour I have always seen before is TB keeping itself to those fixed proportions to the left of the screen. If you start moving "tiles" about, it ends up losing track and fullscreening itself, but not if left alone. Now with 6.0, it is always fullscreen, though it does briefly display the initial tab at the smaller size on first opening, just for a split second before expanding to fill the whole screen..

Duckduckgo is owned by Gabriel Weinberg who earlier ran the site The Names Database, a community portal created for the purpose of data mining.
The Names Database was exceptionally underhanded in that it did not mine only its users, but offered them community perks if they exposed personal information of friends and relatives who could then be profiled with no say of their own.
If anyone thinks his stripes have faded you only have to look at his profile here, where he lists himself as a current a board member of Locality, which is a company that by its own words specializes in user data mining.

I used to be able to use a version of Tor on a flash drive and carry it across computers (IE: copying it to my work computer) and all my preferences (No script whitelist, addons, etc) would remain. Now, it behaves like a clean install every single time. It's VERY annoying/time consuming.

Hard to tell what is going wrong. Could you open a ticket in our bug tracker (trac.torproject.org) giving us some details on what worked and what is broken now so that we can investigate further? Thanks!
If this is OS X, this is no
If this is OS X, this is no doubt because of the hasty decision to move profile files to Application Support folder vs having them in the Application itself simply to satisfy Gatekeeper which is easy for an attacker to bypass anyway.
Just an FYI: It only puts it
Just an FYI: It only puts it in the application support folder if you put Tor in the Application folder. If you put Tor anywhere else (IE: a flash drive or the Desktop - which I do for a portable Tor browser and at work), it creates the data file in that directory - which makes it easy to find later for deleting purposes.
I wouldn't mind this change if they provided an easy way for me to point to the location of the profile information as I copy/paste tor.app across computers. But, as far as I could find, that doesn't exist right now.
A messy work-around:
1) Open the DMG and put Tor.app in the file you want it (I used my flash drive for this)
2) Open it so that it creates the TorBrowser-Data file
3) Set up Tor as desired
4) On new device, open DMG and put Tor.App in file you want
5) Open it so that it creates the TorBrowser-Data file
6) Quit Tor
7) Copy files from TorBrowser-Data file old device to same folder on the new device.
8) Open Tor (and your settings should all be there).
This is a messy fix (for some reason, some of my NoScript settings went a little wonky), but not as time consuming as how I had to do it before.
I'd love to do that, but it
I'd love to do that, but it keeps rejecting my registration as spam no matter what browser I use.
So here are additional details:
All computers running OSX 10.9.5
Under 5.5.5 and earlier, I could save Tor.app to whatever folder I like, set up all my preferences/addons (IE: ghostery, adblock plus, disconnect for social media, bookmarks, etc) load addon specific details (IE my noscript whitelist) and then exit out of Tor, copy the Tor.app to a flash drive and then either use Tor from the flash drive, or copy it to other computers as needed with all preferences/settings in tact.
Now, even if I copy the Tor-Data folder along with the Tor.app to a flash drive, Tor always behaves as a 'clean version', so I have to reload all these preferences for every individual computer.
I figured that was because the data was unpackaged from the rest of Tor (as mentioned in the bug fixes), but then I didn't see a place where I could easily change the setting in Tor to point to the location of the "Tor-Data" file.
It would be nice to know all
It would be nice to know all file locations for version 6.0 vs 5.5.5 in OS X. If you uninstall version 5.5.5 by removing the .app file is there anything else to remove before installing 6.0 to achieve a clean install?
For 5.5.5, removing the .app
For 5.5.5, removing the .app folder should be enough.
For 6.0, you also need to remove the TorBrowser-Data folder which will either be next to the .app or, if you place the .app bundle in /Applications, it will be at ~/Library/Application Support/TorBrower-Data.
With Tor Browser 6.x on Mac
With Tor Browser 6.x on Mac OS, if you move or copy the TorBrowser-Data folder and make sure it is next to TorBrowser.app, the browser profile, Tor data, and other settings should be used. It works for me. The data folder name is important; you should not rename it.
This doesn't work across
This doesn't work across file systems.
My work computer profile is "TorWork", then the file structure is Torwork/...
My Home computers are Mini/...
Laptop/...
My flash drive is Flash/...
The only way to get Tor to copy/paste somewhat cleanly across systems is how I described above. Just copy pasting Tor.app and Tor-Data wasn't good enough. Tor.app is somehow linked to how it creates Tor-Data.
Terrible. I clicked to
Terrible. I clicked to update, it got to the connecting to the Tor network and it did nothing for 3 hours. I exited and now cannot access the browser at all. I then downloaded the new version and when I click to install it freezes Windows Explorer. I have to manually restart that process. The browser is unusable now when it was perfect. Now it sucks and reminds me of IE.
I am running Windows 8.1 No error messages nothing. Just does nothing.
If anyone has any ideas? I am open to suggestion.
Do you have any
Do you have any antivirus/firewall software running on your system? The symptoms you mentioned fit well to such a software trying to protect you and while doing so is interfering with Tor Browser. If so, could you uninstall it for testing purposes (disabling is often not enough).

It cannot be resolved easily. My guess is that it would require the rendering engine itself to be thoroughly changed, something Tor Browser devs are not very likely to do. If you want a more precise answer, be yourself more precise about what you mean with "maximize issue".
>Can someone say whether maximizing is a fingerprinting risk now or not?
It has always been and it continues to be.
>Also does using fullscreen mode (F11) represent a risk?
Yes.

What kind of identifying
What kind of identifying information do you have in mind that twhere not in 5.5.5 but are in 6.0?
