Finally I found a super detailed guide that made things so easy even if I am not the "computer guy" Subbed and liked! Thank you CryptoDad!

I hope that the Thank Yous don’t get old, because here is another one. It is so very lovely to have help with something that you need to do but don’t know how. You make the world a better place. Might you consider adding a link to a site where people can send you donations? ❤

THANK YOU. I'm challenged when it comes to this stuff and you made it soo easy. Again THANK YOU KINGG

[LennyinFlorida]

Thank you for the GnuPG refresher. Great content.

Thank you for your explanations ! I must say that I didn't expect the ending
On my computer, Kleopatra didn't want to work, the software asked me to certify the signature I was trying to certify. I found two other ways to do it with cmd.exe
The easiest is to use the directions in the support of the official website, you have to add cd Downloads (I learn how to do today after searching for a long hour haha, usually I don't use cmd) and when you are to the step "confirmed signature", remove the two Downloads\ that are before the names of the signature file and the launcher and it should work (I don't know if my explanations are really understandable, but read them, it might help you ^^)

Man you made this easy. Deeply appreciate it!

You can also use Tor in Brave, if you don't want to lose your Brave rewards.

Would a VPN in combination with TOR increase privacy or is it redundant? Thanks, Rex. Love the show.

can you help me with my laptop? i downed tor browser but it wont start due to a missing api file or something like that, used to work on vista but now i got win 8.1 and it gives me this problem every time i try to delete and down it again, just wont work because of this missing file, a while back i tried installing the missing file but it did not work

[sheetalchaudhary]

Sir, i have been trying to open particular sites on tor, i saw your tutorial to download and use it but there is an issue that I can’t seem to be able to solve . I have some info on it but cannot solve it i guess the site i want to visit is v3 protected and it says that the public key is invalid and almost all sites are becoming like that pls help .

[shaned]

Does Tor uses security keys or 2FA? Is there any option for that?

[nathanyoung]

Great video but at the importing the TOR certificate into kleopatra its asking me to "certify" the certificate which I see it did not do that on your vif

[dogbyte]

Thank you for the video, you really made it easy for us older farts ;)

[ancapguitarrista]

The firewall, some FortiGuard, from the place I live already blocked tor website and other vpn, how can I get the tor browser withou accessing the official website ?
Does tor bypass it ?

[Tom-gfjs]

Is actually safe to use ONION as every-day internet user? I heard once using onion exposes the user to hackers if Windows isn’t configured right …

[MrCODEmaster]

What is the point of the signature thing? Couldn't you instead scan the installer file using anti-malware/spyware to verify it has not been tampered with?

[thomasmorrison]

Since the last XMR fork the Coinomi wallet has not been able to see or do anything with your XMR balance. I think it would be a big help if you made a video on how to import your XMR wallet to a XMR wallet that is actually working. It is not as easily done because it only gives you a 24 word phrase and you need a 25 word phrase for the other wallets that are actually working.

[heefbrz]

Wouldn't recommend downloading Tor from the website. There are rumors that your I.P. is noted by Intelligence agencies if you do that.
My recommendation would be:
1) Get it from a repository, brew on Mac, Microsoft store on windows, distro repo on Linux.
2) Pull the source code and build it from source.
3) Download from the official site but use a reliable VPN while doing so.

What about Apple users? Is it all basically the same process?
