Installing Tor Browser

Dec 13 2025

Use Tor Browser to download and setup Tails and/or Whonix. Tor Browser outside of Tails or Whonix should be used sparingly. If you have installed Debian and enabled 'contrib' in your apt sources.list, you should be able to install Tor Browser using the following command:

sudo apt install torbrowser-launcher

Launch it, this will download Tor Browser over Tor if you choose. Once complete, run:

sudo apt remove tor

Open your config and set up an obfs4 or webtunnel bridge, adjust the security slider to the safest setting.
