vaskOLD 0 Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Hello staff and all, I would like to ask if the message from the screenshot (Tor exited during startup. This might be due to an error in your torrc file, a bug in Tor, or another program on your system, or faulty hardware) is due to settings in NOD32. Additionally, please tell me how to check if NOD32 is blocking the tor.exe file, so I can be sure it's not because of the antivirus program. IMG Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Marcos 5,228 Posted October 27, 2023 Administrators Share Posted October 27, 2023 Does the issue go away after temporarily uninstalling ESET and returns as soon as you install the latest version 16.2.15 with default settings?

vaskOLD 0 Posted October 27, 2023 Author Share Posted October 27, 2023 I will test and report back soon. 1. I will try to uninstall the antivirus (accordingly, I will try to install TOR browser and thus we will find out whether the antivirus program blocks the browser or not) and then I will install it again with the latest version 2. currently the NOD32 version is 16.2.15 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itman 1,739 Posted October 27, 2023 Share Posted October 27, 2023 Also, it's possible that where ever you downloaded Tor from is using a compromised Tor installer: https://www.darkreading.com/attacks-breaches/trojan-rigged-tor-browser-bundle-drops-malware .

vaskOLD 0 Posted October 30, 2023 Author Share Posted October 30, 2023 it's possible, I eliminated the nod32 problem, it doesn't goblock, but the problem still exists I will be glad if someone can help, my os: Windows 8 my tor v browser 13,0.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itman 1,739 Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 If you search the forum, most of the postings in regards to the Tor browser are that Eset is not blocking access to it as specified. As such, I doubt your Tor browser issue is due to NOD32. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Make sure you download it from a legit source like: https://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/tor_browser_bundle_64.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
