New Release: Tor Browser 8.0.3
Tor Browser 8.0.3 is now available from the Tor Browser Project page and also from our distribution directory.
This release features important security updates to Firefox.
Tor Browser 8.0.3 includes newer NoScript and HTTPS Everywhere versions. Moreover, it ships with a donation banner for our end of the year campaign and includes another round of smaller fixes for Tor Browser 8 issues on Linux systems. We also switched to a newer API for our NoScript <-> Torbutton communication, which we need for the Security Slider.
The full changelog since Tor Browser 8.0.2 is:
- All platforms
- Update Firefox to 60.3.0esr
- Update Torbutton to 2.0.8
- Update HTTPS Everywhere to 2018.9.19

privacy.resistFingerprinting=false **mouse gestures and the extension works properly
As I do not know what this preference does, nor it's impact on privacy/TOR, I have set it back to default. So, once again gestures do not work. If someone can find out what exactly this preference is doing to the extension, that'd be great.
There are several other privacy.resistFingerprinting(.xxx) preferences, all of which were left on default (TRUE) during testing.

"Orange" is number one (ISP) in france
ISP = FAI in french
CBF means that he can't log in his ISP mailbox/client service.
afaik, it is not related at tor but it's related at the isp which does not allow anonymous log in (javascript required & cookies maybe) even with a vpn, it could be refused ...
first you must connect at home second allow javascript & cooky third call the client service (or by chat) if you cannot anymore. i mean it is more a server problem than a tor one.
contactez votre service client en cas 'de diffilculté de connection : c'est plus un probleme de serveur côté fai qu'un probleme avec tor (n'oubliez pas d'activez javascript et d'autorisez les cookies).
la surveillance est très forte en france : the update does not block the connection but the government maybe.

By "blocking", do you mean an almost blank page, with message something like, "bandwidth too high" ? (I don't recall words)

same prob as others. McAfee reports the 64bit ESR Firefox update this installs as a virus. TOR 8.0.3 installs / updates earlier version fine, it updates Firefox to Firefox to 60.3.0 esr and then requests a restart. When you do, McAfee quarantines it. Did clean installs of other earlier 64bit TOR versions, same thing happened ever time after the Firefox upgrade.
Did several new installs of 8.0.3 32bit and NPF.

I had violetmonkey installed. After the 8..0.3 updated, it is disabled. Clicking on the icon, it shows 'scripts disabled'.

If you know of any way to get back userscript support, please let know.
Thanks.

GK
Thanks for your response of the 15th re my concerns about the information I got when trying to verify the 8.0.2 bundle signature.
I have just tried to verify 8.0.3. and whilst I understand what you have said regarding 8.0.2 and the GnuPG configuration, there is still one aspect of the divergence that I get versus what your instructions say I should get that still confuses/worries me.
It is in relation to the RSA key. You say that what I should get is:
“using RSA key 0xD1483FA6C3C07136””
Whereas what I do get (again) is:
RSA key EB774491D9FF06E2
I rather thought (assumed) that something as important as the RSA key should not vary, so why does it?
Thanks

suggestion : could you add at the standard toolbar the icon "home" & the icon "https everywhere" please ?
i feel it should be better with these 2 icons (https is in blue/red easily and home is helpful).
of course, the option "customize" helps but a toolbar including these ones per default should be nicer.
Not showing the HTTPS…
Not showing the HTTPS-Everywhere icon on first start is actually a bug (https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/23359), but we are in the process of redesigning our security controls and the HTTPS-Everywhere icon will be removed from the toolbar in that process.

Not sure it is ok but I have had this many times. And from older versions of Tor blogs ive seen posts saying this is safe, albeit a bit unsettling in my view.
Yes, it's the best option…
Yes, it's the best option. If it refused to build circuits like that, then somebody who knows your exit can narrow out what country your entry guard is in -- and if they see a bunch of connections from you, they would be able to quite quickly learn exactly which country your entry guard is in. That wouldn't be good.
More generally, don't just think of the relay locations, but also think of the network links between the relays. It gets messy quickly:
https://ocewjwkdco.tudasnich.de/improving-tors-anonymity-changing-guard-par…
Tor automatically avoids using more than one relay in a given network /16 in any circuit. I think there could be a bit more room for complexity in path selection, but complexity is bad news for anonymity (see e.g. the attack at the beginning of this comment) so we need to tread carefully.

8.0.3 resolution should be 1000x1000, as in Tor Browser 7.5.6, with saved bookmarks and saved bookmarks folders visible in the horizontal Bookmarks Toolbar visible beneath the Address Bar, and all other settings affecting resolution have their standard-default settings.
This defect, resolution:1000x998, in 8.0.3 duplicates the identical defect, resolution:1000x998, present in 8.0, 8.0.1, and 8.0.2.

Can someone please help me. McAfee had quarenteed an object when I installed the new TBB update (Windows 10 64-bit). I now lost all my bookmarks when I thought by deleting the entire Tor browser off my desktop that I could do a new TBB install thinking bookmarks would still be there but it's not. I went to the Firefox user profile for bookmark backups but they only show the bookmarks I have for Firefox. Did me uninstalling the entire Tor browser delete any chance of me retrieving my bookmarks or is there another way to find them on my system? Thank You!

Starting with version 8, 90% OF THE TIME when I start Tor I get the error page that says "Something is wrong" and complaining that Tor is not connected. I quit Tor and restart it and 100% of the time Tor connects on the second try.
It looks like the initial connection on the first startup is either being refused or is timing out prematurely. Is there a workaround for this behavior?
I dont get the "Something is…
I dont get the "Something is wrong" part however Tor often does hang on first boot, restarting always works, so far.

So it looks like the first start of Tor 8.0.3 is hanging in your case and immediately failing in my case. This might reflect a TCP timeout issue. You are hanging waiting for a connection. I am displaying the "Something is wrong" red error startup tab in Tor because my connection is immediately failing. But what is common to both our cases is that the first start of Tor 8.0.3 fails to connect properly. The second connection seems to work.
No chance that this is some kind of man-in-the-middle attack?

It is reproducible for me. I close the browser simply by clicking the close button in the browser's window frame.
start-tor-browser.desktop does not start the browser, but start-tor-browser does.
When I close the browser the output first mentions a JavaScript error in tor-circuit-display.js (myController is null) and then there are some warnings which look a bit like this:
[Parent ..., Gecko_IOThread] WARNING: pipe error ... Connection reset by peer: file /var/.../ipc_channel_posix.cc, line 353

Catching signal TERM, exiting cleanly.

A big problem with Tor…
A big problem with Tor Browser is that many image and file downloading web sites don't work!
These web sites request captcha's and/ or clicking trough multiple layers of javascript links to get into the stuff but they load the final thing (image, or file, or page) from a different sub-domain, sometimes even different domains! And then present the error that the IP is wrong... because Tor Browser is using different paths to different sub-domains and different domains.
There should be a way to allow, at least for some sessions to allow the Tor Browser to use the same path at the very least in the same tab, and maybe even give that option to the all session and all tabs existent or new or to the actual tab and any new tab or windows it opens... from the web site point of view the IP should always seem the same no matter what sub-domains/ different domains it loads to find out if the user is really coming from that IP or using Onion network.
This is extremely danger when not used carefully so some UI should warn visually the user when that is being done... and should be explicitly activated by the user for that "Identity session", and the user should be able to disable it.
Otherwise there exists web sites that can't be used at all because of this way of working of Tor Browser.

It happen to me one time a web site I was in is blocked in Russia, the problem is the redirect the domain to another and I couldn't ask for a new onion path since the domain was redirected before I could do that.
Can you add a manual mode in the options to ask for a new path for a specific domain/ sub-domain without having to enter in a tab such that the Tor makes a new path to it and allow the current tabs to get the new path and keep/ start using the page.
How would that work in…
How would that work in practice? You would get a question in every redirect case asking whether you want to have the redirect over a new circuit?
Another way might be to have…
Another way might be to have a circuits/domains tab that you can open which displays all of the active circuits/domains, similar to how the downloads tab displays a list of downloaded files. You could order the circuits by most recent attempted connection and a display a "new circuit" button next to each circuit, similar to how there is a "pause/resume/retry" button next to each incomplete download on the downloads tab.
It should be enough some UI…
It should be enough some UI to enter the domain/ sub-domain and ask Tor manually for a new path to it.
For example, bellow "New Tor Circuit for this Site" option you could add "New Tor Circuit for user provided URL". And explain in help section that in case TOR is making you exit in a server that is redirecting the domain to some other domain/ sub-domain (ex.: country's that censor some contents like Russia and many others) some times to show a message that you were trying to access a forbidden domain, the user should request manually for a new circuit so that it doesn't keep ending in the same censored server.
I would add there is another…
I would add there is another problem/bug closely related to the problem Loook describes. If a website fails to load due to a timeout, the circuit is displayed but clicking on "new circuit" only reloads the page but does not provide a new circuit! "New circuit" only works as expected if a connection is already established. I am using the linux 8.0.3 version.

That website is using the CDN services by Akamai and they have a Tor blocklist installed by default. Chances are high that the site owner either does not know about and is just running with the default settings. Please ask them to get rid of that Tor ban, thanks!

So Akamai is just as bad as Cloudflare then! How sad. I recall reading a blog post some time ago which discussed the problem with Cloudflare and it referenced a report by Akamai which found the proportion of legitimate web traffic to be the same for Tor and non-Tor users, so I can't see why they think a default Tor blocklist is a good idea, it just deprives users of content and site owners of traffic!

When I right click a link to open in a new private window, the new window opens against the top of my screen. It will resize itself to full screen almost spontaneously, and quite unpredictably. I try to place the mouse cursor at the top of the browser window to click and drag the window down. Sometimes I make it before "Full Screening", and other times ... BOOM! There it goes. Also, when the browser resizes, there is no yellow warning banner at the top anymore advising against resizing the browser. That's different. This is a TBB 8.0.3_x64bit on a Windows 7-x64bit machine. Thank you for helping all of us users with your continuous dedication to Tor Project.

Thanks gk. I have gone through 2 or three new mice trying to remedy some odd mouse performance (all of them the same brand from the same retailer ... not my first choice, but they were what was for sale). My last selection has been a different and well known brand (the last one in my reserves). The erratic TBB window resizing has ceased. Other problems with highlight-copy-paste seem solved, too. The warning still does not appear if I deliberately resize though. My trouble may have been defective hardware, i.e.: the computer mice.

Aha! Thanks for the report back. I am closing the ticket then. Please reopen if this does not seem like a hardware issue on your side.
When I read this and think…
When I read this and think of the times when I have accidentally resized to full screen with a slip of the mouse, I would think it better for the browser to catch a resize event and warn the user before it goes ahead with the resize rather than after when it is too late. "Are you sure you want to do this?" seems a better question than "did you really mean to do that?" But maybe it is more challenging to implement this way, I don't know.

I recently downloaded Tor 8.0.3 64-bit to my new computer that has Windows 10 64-bit.

Does an update to 8.0.4 help? Do you have some antivirus/firewall software installed that could interfere with Tor Browser? Does your issue go away if you uninstall it (just for testing as disabling is often not enough to stop this kind of software from messing with other applications)?

If you mark the folder where you store your Tor Browser as read-only there is not much what we can do. I recently read:
