In Tails 4.22, we focused on solving the most important issues in the _Tor
Connection_ assistant to make it more robust and easier to use.

# Changes and updates

## Included software and hardware support

* Update _Tor Browser_ to [10.5.6](https://blog.torproject.org/new-release-tor-browser-1056).

* Update _Thunderbird_ to [78.13](https://www.thunderbird.net/en-US/thunderbird/78.13.0/releasenotes/).

* Update the AMD graphics firmware to 20210818. This should improve the support for some AMD graphics cards.

## _Tor Connection_

* Change the custom bridge interface to only allow entering 1 bridge. ([#18550](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18550))

People had troubles knowing how to enter their custom bridges when the widget
was a textarea and only the first bridge is used anyway.

* Allow saving 1 custom bridge in the Persistent Storage. ([#5461](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/5461))

* Allow fixing the clock manually when connecting to Tor using bridges fails. ([#15548](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/15548))

This helps people East from London connect to Tor using obfs4 bridges and
makes connecting to Tor more robust in general.

* Reduce the timeout that determines whether we can connect to Tor at all from 30 seconds to 10 seconds. Increase the timeout to start Tor entirely from 120 seconds to 600 seconds. ([#18501](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18501)).

_Tor Connection_ now fails quicker when it's impossible to connect to Tor,
while being more robust on slow Internet connections.

* Allow trying again to connect to Tor from the error screen. ([#18539](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18539))

## _Unsafe Browser_

* Stop restarting Tor when exiting the _Unsafe Browser_. ([#18562](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18562))

* Only mention the Persistent Storage in the _Unsafe Browser_ warning when there is already a Persistent Storage. ([#18551](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18551))

## Others

* Make sure that automatic upgrades are downloaded from a working mirror. ([#15755](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/15755))

* Add Russian to the offline documentation included in Tails.

# Fixed problems

## _Tor Connection_

* Fix connecting to Tor using the default bridges. ([#18462](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18462))

* Fix connecting to Tor when the Wi-Fi settings are saved in the Persistent Storage. ([#18532](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18532))

* Stop trying to connect to Tor in the background when _Tor Connection_ reaches the error screen. ([#18740](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/issues/18740))

[changelog](https://gitlab.tails.boum.org/tails/tails/-/blob/master/debian/changelog).

# Get Tails 4.22

## To upgrade your Tails USB stick and keep your persistent storage

4.16, Tails 4.17, or Tails
4.18](https://tails.boum.org/doc/upgrade/error/check/index.en.html#4.18).

* Automatic upgrades are available from Tails 4.19 or later to 4.22.

You can [reduce the size of the
download](https://tails.boum.org/doc/upgrade/index.en.html#reduce) of future
automatic upgrades by doing a manual upgrade to the latest version.

* If you cannot do an automatic upgrade or if Tails fails to start after an automatic upgrade, please try to do a [manual upgrade](https://tails.boum.org/doc/upgrade/index.en.html#manual).

## To install Tails on a new USB stick

The Persistent Storage on the USB stick will be lost if you install instead of
