What are grey bars on resized Tor Browser window?
What are grey bars on resized Tor Browser window? Tor Browser in its default mode is starting with a content window rounded to a multiple of 200px x 100px to prevent fingerprinting the screen dimensions. The strategy here is to put all users in a couple of buckets to make it harder to single them out.
Why is Tor Browser not working?
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 is Tor not full screen?
That concern is secondary and not a strong reason for keeping the window small, basically websites can see your screen resolution and if you're having a different resolution than other users they can narrow down there search results. Thats why it is not recommended to run tor in full screen.
How do I maximize a window in Tor Browser?
