If so, can you re-test 9.0 now on your macOS so we can rule out some macOS related software update that fixed this. (old bundles are at: https://archive.torproject.org/tor-package- archive/torbrowser/9.0) > > I am unable to load 9.0 on my Mac. I downloaded it from archive.torproject.org, but when I opened it, when it opened, it announced that it had upgraded itself to 9.0.1. > > This happens after starting it a second time, yes. But if you just start a fresh version and keep using it you should still have 9.0 because *using* 9.0.1 requires a restart (the update is applied in the background, though). I vaguely remember I still got the problem with 9.0, but now, as soon as 9.0 starts, it says that 9.0.1 has been added, restart to finish installation, and, with 9.0.1 added (but without a restart) when I try to reach Dilbert and cannot connect, I get the "New Circuit for this Site" button and I can keep clicking until I connect. I don't know if any changes in 9.0 occur after 9.0.1 is added but no restart, and there doesn't seem to be any way to check. I might have not gotten a 'timed out unable to connect' on OSX Capitan and so didn't notice that 9.0 had the "New Circuit for this Site" since it was not very long from 9.0 until 9.0.1 I first noticed the problem in 9.0a, and it was when 9.0.1 came out, that the 9.xa version also had the "New Circuit for this Site" when it was unable to connect because of a blocked Exit node. I had trouble going back to 8.5 because I installed 9.0a in my Applications folder, and this is NOT a good idea on OSX if one tries to go back and forth between the alpha version and the regular version (I now have both in separate folders on my Desktop). -- Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/32297#comment:16> Tor Bug Tracker & Wiki <https://trac.torproject.org/> The Tor Project: anonymity online
