--------------------+------------------------------
 In Windows, Tor can be on a floppy drive, and installs in a separate
 folder.

 On Macintosh, Tor goes in the Applications directory and writes data to
 user/Library and other places.

 On Windows, I use both Tor and Tor Alpha.

 On Macintosh, I was using Tor Standard, I installed Tor Alpha, and it
 broke Tor on my Mac. Now Tor Standard cannot comment on Disqus (it could
 before I installed Tor Alpha), and cannot connect to trac.torproject.ort
 (I am using Tor Alpha on Windows).

 I deleted the Tor files in user/Library, re-installed Tor Standard, but it
 no longer runs. At first, I could not comment on Disqus, and now Tor on my
 copy of El Capitan stopped working, it seems to be blocked, and is blocked
 even with Obfs4 or Meek turned on.

 I tried deleting Tor Alpha and re-installing Tor Standard, but it does not
 work.

 Where does Tor write its files? How can I go back to Tor standard on the
 Mac?
