I am using Qubes. If I run Tor Browser from a disposable qube it starts.
If I run it from a template vm it gives error:
ERROR: User home folder permission issue?
Failed to run the following command:
cp --verbose --recursive --no-clobber /var/cache/tb-binary/.cache /home/user/
Tip: If something does not work, do not arbitrarily try to use sudo / root without indication that this would be appropriate.
That only risks messing up user home folder permissions.To fix this, you could try:
Start Menu → System → Xfce Terminalsudo chown --recursive “user”:“user” “/home/user”
Then try starting Tor Browser again.
If I try to run Tor Browser downloader from Whonix template vm it gives this error:
ERROR: GPG download signature could NOT be verified.
Tor Browser update failed! Try again later.

Tor browser only starts from disposable vm qube but it show that an update is available.
