thank you for your tests!

I cannot reproduce this. Would you confirm that what you do is:
- connect to a network
- TCA open
- you select "Hide to my local network..."
- you click on "Connect to Tor"
- you click on "Back"
- now you cannot click on "Configure Tor automatically"

?

If so, I'd ask you if you could provide us some logs:
- open Terminal
- run this command:
sudo journalctl -t tca > tca-logs.txt
- from the top panel, open Places → Home
- you'll find a file named tca-logs.txt right there. please send it (or
its contents) to us!

thanks for reporting!
