# New features

## Closing a Tor circuit from _Onion Circuits_

You can now close a given Tor circuit from the _Onion Circuits_ interface.
This can help replace a particularly slow Tor circuit or troubleshoot issues
on the Tor network.

![](https://tails.boum.org/news/version_5.19/close_circuit.png)

To close a Tor circuit:

1. [Connect to the Tor network.](https://tails.boum.org/doc/anonymous_internet/tor/index.en.html)

2. Choose ![Tor status menu](https://tails.boum.org/lib/symbolic/tor-connected.png) ▸ **Open Onion Circuits** in the top navigation bar.

3. Right-click (on Mac, click with two fingers) on the circuit that you want to close.

4. Choose **Close this circuit** in the shortcut menu.

When you close a circuit that is being used by an application, your
application gets disconnected from this destination service.

For example, when you close a circuit while _Tor Browser_ is downloading a
file, the download fails.

5. If you connect to the same destination server again, Tor uses a different circuit to replace the circuit that you closed.

For example, if you download the same file again, Tor uses a new circuit.

## Addition of sq-keyring-linter

At the request of people who use [SecureDrop](https://securedrop.org/) to
provide secure whistleblowing platforms across the world, we added the [`sq-
keyring-linter`](https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/rust-sequoia-keyring-linter)
package. `sq-keyring-linter` improves the cryptographic parameters of PGP keys
stored in their airgapped machines.

# Get Tails 5.19

## To upgrade your Tails USB stick and keep your Persistent Storage

* Automatic upgrades are available from Tails 5.0 or later to 5.19.

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

Follow our installation instructions:

* [Install from Windows](https://tails.boum.org/install/windows/index.en.html)
* [Install from macOS](https://tails.boum.org/install/mac/index.en.html)

* [Install from Debian or Ubuntu using the command line and GnuPG](https://tails.boum.org/install/expert/index.en.html)

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