 I've alwasys had both Stable and Experimental Tor Browsers installed on my
 MacBook Pro OS Sierra 10.12.1 but recently 6.5a changed that

 6.0.5 opens and works fine although ...

 When I installed and opened 6.5a3 I got this message: "Tor exited during
 startup. This might be due to an error in your torrc file, a bug in Tor or
 another program on your system, or faulty hardware. Until you fix the
 underlying problem and restart Tor, Tor Browser will not start."

 When I got back to open 6.0.5 I got the same message.

 If I completely uninstall and erase all files (including preferces files)
 related to both TorBrowsers using AppleCleaner I can use 6.0.5 and 6.5a3
 seperately.

 Any issues to fix here? How can I help you to fix this?
