 I am not a tech person so I can only provide basic info.
 I was using the browser just fine until yesterday afternoon - July 28 -
 after that when I attempted to open it I always received the message that
 I could not as it was already open - which it wasn't.  I ended up deleting
 Tor and attempted to start with a fresh download - that was a no go.

 In restarting my computer today I got a message that there was some
 unauthorized access that was stopped by Windows Defender.  In checking out
 Defender I found that if I granted app access for Tor I could get it to
 download and reinstall.  However I still cannot use it - Whenever I try to
 start it I get the message "Tor unexpectedly exited" - and with the
 message to send a copy of the log - but when I click the button to copy
 Tor log to clipboard - nothing happens.

 I'm running Windows 10
