If there already is a folder /home/user/.tb/tor-browser, rename the old /home/user/.tb/tor-browser to something else. home/user/.tb/tor-browser/Browser/TorBrowser/Data/Browser/fault/preferences/30_download_folder.js pref("", "/home/user/Downloads") Pref("", "/home/user/Downloads") alone is not enough. Choose a directory location that you'll remember easily, and once the download finishes you should see a Tor Browser folder there. Click the Change button and choose a new location for the downloads. One would think this is not so hard, but… If you can't find it in either of those folders, download it again and look for the prompt that asks you to choose a directory to download it in. Scroll down until you see the View advanced settings button and click on that.
