Hi,

I used the following script but it does not enable "New Identity" button:

  #!/bin/bash
  TOR_CONTROL_PORT="9051"
  TOR_CONTROL_COOKIE_AUTH_FILE="$HOME/.tor/control_auth_cookie"
  /path/to/App/Firefox/firefox -profile /path/to/profile -no-remote

Tor cntrol port is 9051 and cookie auth is enabled, Tor is running.
Any idea?

Best regards
Karsten N.
