Comment (by mackey):

 I should clarify that I was creating a virtual drive within that USB but
 never had this issue on previous Tor versions. Also, I was using the 64bit
 version, however, this all applies to the 32bit version as well.

 I directly installed Tor onto the virtual drive and copied it directly
 from the local c: drive as well. Same issue. Randomly, it may open and
 connect to Tor a couple times but eventually the same issue occurred and
 would stay permanent unless I install the entire Tor folder again from
 scratch. Tested it by leaving Tor at default settings and also changing
 settings, same issue.

 Tried it on the local drive and directly onto the USB (non-virtual). The
 issue does not appear. So it seems that using Tor on virtual drive is the
 problem.
