 My tor browser auto-upgraded yesterday 2017 Friday Nov 03 to 7.0.9 but the
 restart gave me the error "The proxy server is refusing connections" for
 any URL. I cannot use the browser.

 I'm on Ubuntu 16.04. How do I fix this issue. I normally do not change any
 of Tor's settings.

 About Tor Borowser: 7.0.9 (based on Mozilla Firefox 52.4.1) (64-bit)

 Any help to get Tor browser working again would be appreciated. Thank you.
