Comment:

 It sounds like the tor process did not exit when your browser did (it is
 supposed to do so). Please use Activity Monitor to make sure no firefox or
 tor.real processes are running. Then open Tor Browser and let us know what
 happens.

 Also, please explain what you mean by "Tor Browser suddenly unlogged my
 user mid-session." Did you actually get logged out of your macOS account?
 Or did the browser exit?
