 Torchat is an instant messenger. It is one of the rare tools which allows
 to communicate easily without leaving more traces than Tor Browser.
 It is no more maintened, but there isn't any credible alternative. Link to
 Torchat: https://github.com/prof7bit/TorChat

 Torchat is capricious.
 This is due to the functioning of the tor version with which it runs. On
 windows, it runs with tor 0.2.2.x.
 On other OS it has more recent versions.
 On windows, the 0.2.6.x can be put.
  Some windows users update the Tor version for Torchat manually, to
 improve stability and safety.
 Support022hiddenservice was a good palliative. However it was suppressed
 with the commit b3bd7a736c7a54406c087bfaa2bae3dec03ec7bd. Problems
 returned.

 I ask for the return of Support022hiddenservice, until there isn't any
 good alternative or that torchat is not updated.
