 Unfortunately, it may be a lot of work to modify the Firefox code that Tor
 Browser is based on to queue open file requests rather than processing
 them right away.

 I think an extra window is something we can live with: it's not a security
 issue any more, because opening links and documents with Tor Browser as
 the default browser works in 7.0.1.

 Do you want to close this ticket, mcs?

 What is happening in this case is that the first window (the one that
 contains the "Open With" file) is opened before Tor Launcher has finished
 setting up the Tor network connection. Tor Launcher tries to block startup
 of the browser until bootstrapping completes, but another part of the
 browser handles the open request anyway.


 The right fix is probably to do what teor said at the end of comment:2.
 Unfortunately, it may be a lot of work to modify the Firefox code that Tor
 Browser is based on to queue open file requests rather than processing
 them right away.

Comment (by cypherpunks):

 This behaviour appears to be fixed in 7.0.1 on macOS 10.12.5, but it now
 also opens a second TorBrowser window when you open a local file in
 TorBrowser.
