Please help me.
I did not have this installed. So, I installed and everything works OK.
You may want to try deleting or moving ~/.local/share/torbrowser and see if you can start from the beginning.
Hi Ed: Maybe a stupid question I can remove the tor browser with dnf ( see the option installed and then uninstall tor , tor launcher , tor socks ) and then reinstall with dnf install , but I get the same result the torbrowser-launcher crashes , so I think I have to delete all of the in the past installed tor issues. How do I delete or move the whole bunch as you suggest ?
Before updating I got the message "The browser has to be updated and maybe has been hacked".
As Paul pointed out a mismatch in the update version or a python problem ?

Did you try my suggestion of doing either
rm -rf ~/.local/share/torbrowser
or
mv ~/.local/share/torbrowser someplace
That should clean up a given user's area and allow you to start over.
Or, you could even try tor browser as a newly created "test" user.
