Why is my Tor Browser not connecting to Internet?
If Tor Browser was working before and is not working now your system may have been hibernating. A reboot of your system will solve the issue. Delete Tor Browser and install it again. If updating, do not just overwrite your previous Tor Browser files; ensure they are fully deleted beforehand.

Why does it keep saying unable to connect to internet?
Check for Physical Connectivity Issues

What is Tor Browser bundle?

Is Tor legal or illegal?
Accessing the dark web is legal in India. The Indian government does not recognize it as an illegal activity, because it is just another part of the internet that you are surfing, through TOR, Freenet, etc. However, this doesn't mean you are free to do whatever you want.
Can you be tracked over Tor?
Although your internet traffic is encrypted on Tor, your ISP can still see that you're connected to Tor. Plus, Tor cannot protect against tracking at the entry and exit nodes of its network. Anyone who owns and operates the entry node will see your real IP address.
Can you combine Tor with VPN?
Yes! Using Tor and a VPN together provides maximum security. Should I use a VPN to connect to Tor, or use Tor to connect to a VPN? Connect to a VPN first, then Tor.
Is ISP blocking Tor?
Because Tor has been used for illegal activities, some ISP might throttle or block Tor traffic. Thanks to onion routing, your ISP can't know which site you're visiting or read your traffic. However, ISP will know that you're using Tor. This is because the IP addresses of Tor's nodes are publicly available.
Why is Tor disconnected?
Check network admin settings: It is possible that your network admin is blocking Tor access. Check with your network administrator or, if you are the admin, check your network settings to see if access to the tor network is blocked.
How do I fix Tor proxy server refused connections?
Try a different port from the one currently in use, such as 9050 or 9150. When all else fails, reinstall the browser. This time, make sure to install Tor Browser in a new directory, not over a previously installed browser.
How do I stop my ISP from blocking?
How do I unblock a website from my ISP? You can bypass ISP blocks with the help of specific software, such as the Tor browser, Smart DNS, proxy server, or virtual private network (VPN). These tools spoof your IP address and redirect your traffic to a remote server. We recommend you to unblock websites with VPN.
Can ISP see Tor through VPN?
Will the Tor browser hide activities from ISPs? Yes, the Tor browser hides activities from ISPs. However, VPNs encrypt traffic before it even reaches your ISP. So while Tor may make it more difficult for your ISP to see what you're doing online, a VPN will make it impossible.
Should I use VPN with Tor?
Generally speaking, we don't recommend using a VPN with Tor unless you're an advanced user who knows how to configure both in a way that doesn't compromise your privacy. You can find more detailed information about Tor + VPN at our wiki.
