  3. (Aanbevolen) Controleer de handtekening van het bestand.

  4. Now follow either the graphical or the command-line method:

Graphical method

  • When the download is complete, extract the archive using an archive manager.

  • You'll need to tell your GNU/Linux that you want the ability to execute shell scripts. Navigeer naar de nieuw uitgepakte Tor Browser map. Klik met de rechtermuisknop op start-tor-browser.desktop, open Eigenschappen of Voorkeuren en wijzig de toestemming om het bestand als programma uit te voeren. Dubbelklik op het pictogram om Tor Browser voor het eerst op te starten.

Make the .desktop file executable in Linux

Note: On Ubuntu and some other distros if you try to launch start-tor-browser.desktop a text file might open up. To change this behavior and launch Tor Browser instead, follow this:

  • Launch "Files" (GNOME Files/Nautilus)
  • Click on Preferences.
  • Navigate to the 'Behavior' Tab.
  • Select "Run them" or "Ask what to do" under "Executable Text Files".
  • If you choose the latter click on "Run" after launching the start-tor-browser.desktop file.

Change behavior of executable text file to always run in Linux

Command-line method

  • When the download is complete, extract the archive with the command tar -xf [TB archive].

  • From inside the Tor Browser directory, you can launch Tor Browser by running:

    ./start-tor-browser.desktop

    Note: If this command fails to run, you probably need to make the file executable. From within this directory run: chmod +x start-tor-browser.desktop

Some additional flags that can be used with start-tor-browser.desktop from the command-line:

Flag Description
--register-app To register Tor Browser as a desktop application.
--verbose To display Tor and Firefox output in the terminal.
--log [file] To record Tor and Firefox output in file (default: tor-browser.log).
--detach To detach from terminal and run Tor Browser in the background.
--unregister-app To unregister Tor Browser as a desktop application.
