Most antivirus or malware protection allows the user to "allowlist" certain processes that would otherwise be blocked.
|
|
Please open your antivirus or malware protection software and look in the settings for an "allowlist" or something similar.
|
|
Next, include the following processes:
|
|
|
|
* For Windows
|
|
* firefox.exe
|
|
* tor.exe
|
|
* lyrebird.exe (if you use bridges)
|
|
* snowflake-client.exe
|
|
|
|
|
|
* For macOS
|
|
* TorBrowser
|
|
* tor.real
|
|
* lyrebird (if you use bridges)
|
|
* snowflake-client
|
|
|
|
Finally, restart Tor Browser.
|
|
This should fix the issues you're experiencing.
|
|
Please note that some antivirus clients, like Kaspersky, may also be blocking Tor at the firewall level.
