If you click "Learn more...", you'll be taken to https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems which tells users to reset Firefox with the "Reset Firefox..." button on the about:support page. We REEEALLY don't want Tor Browser users to reset their browser, ever, because it deletes all add-ons, including Torbutton and TorLauncher. You can permanently prevent the "Tor Browser seems slow... to... start" information bar from popping up by setting the browser.slowStartup.notificationDisabled pref in about:config to true; default is false.
Firefox determines whether or not the browser is slow to start up by storing information about browser startup times to disk. To prevent this information from being stored at all, we should also set both browser.slowStartup.maxSamples and browser.slowStartup.samples to 0.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/42282"Tor Browser" entry created in registry Editor under HKLM and HKCR2024-01-09T13:58:23Zcypherpunks"Tor Browser" entry created in registry Editor under HKLM and HKCR"Tor Browser" entry created in registry Editor under HKLM and HKCR"Tor Browser" entry created in registry Editor under HKLM and HKCRcypherpunkscypherpunkshttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/issues/20306"Tor cannot connect to the Internet if ReachableAddresses, ReachableORAddress...2020-06-27T13:58:05ZRoger Dingledine"Tor cannot connect to the Internet if ReachableAddresses, ReachableORAddresses, or ReachableDirAddresses reject all addresses.

It seems to me that having an empty pass phrase should work; but if we want it to not work, we should say that as an error message.
(Found by tech-exorcist on #tor)
In fact, I just tried it with short passphrases, and they also fail with these cryptic error messages. So it sounds like maybe we have a secret minimum passphrase length or something?Tor: 0.4.6.x-freezeNeel Chauhanneel@neelc.orgNeel Chauhanneel@neelc.orghttps://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/core/tor/-/issues/295"Tor.exe -remove" appears to not be waiting for service to stop.2020-06-27T14:10:55ZTrac"Tor.exe -remove" appears to not be waiting for service to stop.C:\Program Files\Tor>tor -remove

I wonder how this could have happened? I clicked sometimes on the update button to look at the log the days before. If that is the issue then I wonder what triggered the dialog today and not, say, yesterday.
Apart from that one nit: the dialog was talking about the "TorBrowser" while the about:tor page in the background was talking about "Tor Browser". Not sure which one is better but it should be only one we use.https://gitlab.torproject.org/tpo/applications/tor-browser/-/issues/34091"torrc" error message plus2020-06-27T14:31:39ZTrac"torrc" error message plusI, am doing my best to learn what I can about using Tor, but it is causing problems that knows, now, what ignorant feels like.

I, no longer can connect to the Internet with a regular browser, and is necessary for day to day usage utilizing bookmarks, and saved passwords for certain accounts. I, do not run Tor when using other browsers, nor do I, want, or can I, use Tor to access sites used on a daily basis. Neither, Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, or Google for that matter will allow me to do _anything_ saying I, am not connected to the Internet, when most definitely, am connected.
I, receive different messages about the DNS, router, or unable to diagnose the problem. The browser opens, but that is as far I, can get. I, cannot even log into my Google account, of which my problems began, meaning when I, logged out of Google everything stopped. Tor was doing the same, opening to the home page, and allowing me to access the blog, and email, only, but using DuckDuckGo returned one message:
"Error 1016 Ray ID: 58cbdadddaeebb46 • 2020-05-01 19:19:35 UTC
Origin DNS error"
and one saying "torrc error." I, cannot recall each error message received, sorry. Apparently, Tor grants me access, now, but when my computer completely shut down, because of an "At Risk" message never, ever seen in my life popped up disabling use, and froze, forcing me to shut my device off. I, realized feeling more vulnerable, now to a virus, malware, etc.
What is going on?

Domain admins set up Group Policy Objects configuring Firefox to use a proxy auto-configuration script.
That setting from GPO overrides automatic Tor Browser setting to use localhost:9150 and when I try to navigate I get "Unable to connect" error page.
Tor Browser connection settings are locked by the GPO, as it is in the installed version of Firefox, and I cannot change them manually.
