Am I the only one who keeps having issues with Tor in Brave on OSX? I have had to uninstall/delete app data/reinstall at least 3-4 times now, it will work fine for a few months then just BOOM never works after some unknown events
Posted something on this before, never found answers except for the painful workaround everytime?
@kneel23 ,
Oh yes, sorry
OSX Big Sur 11.2.3 - unable to update to 11.4 currently due to an OSX issue downloading the update file
Brave Version 1.25.68 Chromium: 91.0.4472.77 (Official Build) (x86_64) (latest)
I just uninstalled and deleted Brave Application Data again, and re-installed with the latest Brave but this time, it did not fix Tor. Still shows Tor disconnected

General Info:
```
Tor Version:
Tor Process Id: 11772
Tor Proxy URI:
Tor Connection Status: Disconnected
Tor Initialization Progress:
```
## Expected result:
Should say `Initializing %` until it's ready, at which point it'll read `Connected` under `Tor Status`
## Reproduces how often:
It's not 100%, but it's pretty prevalent - @kjozwiak can give better insight as to how often this happens for him, as he's dogfooding on Windows
## Brave version (brave://version info)
Brave | 1.26.22 Chromium: 91.0.4472.57 (Official Build) nightly (64-bit)

Thanks - I finally got around the Big Sur 11.4 update issue today and now that the update finished, Brave is working again shrug
