Hi, I have changed to root user and deleted the folder in the workaround,
rebooted and still have the same problem as described in the symptoms. If I
use the previous version of Tails it works as expect using the same
Bridges. I don't believe I am using faulty bridges. Ever since I upgraded
to new release I have had this problem. I have tried making a new used
stick from scratch and still the same result. I am at a loss, can you
please advise. The Tor browser still works,  when I check Valida I can see
the bridges are loaded in the network configuration tab, but the Tor
network configuration wizard is still on screen and stuck.

Kind Regards
