## APIE TOR NARŠYKLĘ

Tam, kad apsaugotų jūsų privatumą ir anonimiškumą, Tor Naršyklė naudoja Tor tinklą. Tor tinklo naudojimas turi dvi pagrindines savybes:

- Jūsų interneto paslaugų teikėjas ir bet kas, stebintis jūsų ryšį vietiniame lygmenyje, negalės sekti jūsų veiklos internete, įskaitant jūsų lankomų internetinių svetainių pavadinimų ir adresų.

- Svetainių operatoriai bei paslaugos, kuriomis naudojatės, ir visi kiti, kas jas stebi, vietoj jūsų tikrojo internetinio (IP) adreso, matys ryšį ateinantį iš Tor tinklo, ir jie nežinos kas jūs esate, nebent patys aiškiai leisite jiems save atpažinti.

Be to, Tor Naršyklė yra sukurta taip, kad neleistų svetainėms imti jūsų "pirštų atspaudų" ar atpažinti jus pagal jūsų naršyklės konfigūraciją.

Pagal numatymą, Tor Naršyklė nesaugo jokio naršymo žurnalo. Slapukai galioja tik vienam seansui (tol, kol nebus išeita iš Tor Naršyklės arba nebus užklausta Nauja tapatybė).

### KAIP VEIKIA TOR

Tor yra virtualių tunelių tinklas, leidžiantis jums pagerinti savo privatumą ir saugumą internete. Tor veikia, siųsdamas jūsų duomenų srautą per tris atsitiktinius serverius (kurie dar žinomi kaip retransliavimai) Tor tinkle. Po viso to, paskutinis grandinėje esantis retransliavimas ("išėjimo retransliavimas") siunčia duomenų srautą į viešąjį internetą.

The image above illustrates a user browsing a website over Tor where the traffic goes over multiple hops or relays, represented by the slices of onion, and is encrypted and decrypted at each hop.

## ATSISIUNTIMAS

Saugiausias ir paprasčiausias būdas atsisiųsti Tor Naršyklę - iš oficialios Tor Project internetinės svetainės, adresu https://www.torproject.org/download. Jūsų ryšys su svetaine bus apsaugotas naudojant HTTPS protokolą, kuris apsunkins kitiems asmenims galimybę klastoti duomenis.

Vis dėlto, kartais, galite neturėti prieigos prie Tor Project internetinės svetainės, pavyzdžiui, ši svetainė jūsų tinkle gali būti užblokuota. Jeigu taip nutiktų, galite naudotis vienu iš alternatyviųjų žemiau išvardytų atsisiuntimo metodų:

### TINKLAVIETĖS

Jeigu negalite parsisiųsti Tor Naršyklės iš oficialios Tor Project svetainės, galite pabandyti vieną iš mūsų oficialių veidrodžių, kaip EFF arba La Cebolla.

### GetTor

GetTor tai paslauga, kuri automatiškai atsako į el. laiškus ir atsiunčia nuorodas į naujausią Tor Naršyklės versiją, kuri saugoma įvairiose vietose, tokiose kaip Dropbox, Google diskas ir GitHub.

### NORĖDAMI NAUDOTIS GETTOR EL. PAŠTU

Išsiųskite el. laišką gettor@torproject.org laiške parašydami "windows", "osx" ar "linux" (be kabučių), priklausomai nuo to, kokią operacinę sistemą naudojate. For example, to get links for downloading Tor Browser for Windows, send an email to gettor@torproject.org with the word "windows" in it.

GetTor atsakys el. laišku, kuriame bus nuorodos, iš kurių galėsite atsisiųsti Tor Naršyklės paketą, kriptografinį parašą (reikalingą atsisiuntimo patikrinimui), parašui naudojamo rakto kontrolinį kodą bei paketo kontrolinę sumą. Jums gali būti siūloma pasirinkti "32-bitų" arba "64-bitų" programinę įrangą: tai priklauso nuo jūsų naudojamo kompiuterio modelio.

### TO USE GETTOR VIA TELEGRAM

Send a message to @GetTor_Bot on Telegram.

- Tap on 'Start' or write `/start` in the chat.

- Pasirinkite kalbą.

- There are two options to download Tor Browser.

  - Tap on 'Send me Tor Browser' and choose your operating system. GetTor will respond with a downloadable Tor Browser file and the signature which can be used to verify the download.
  - Tap on 'Send me other mirrors for Tor Browser' to download from one of the official mirrors.

## ĮDIEGIMAS

## Sistemos reikalavimai

Tor Browser is based on Mozilla Firefox's ESR (Extended Support Release), which periodically updates to include critical security updates from Firefox's main version. Due to these updates, older operating systems may eventually become incompatibile with newer versions of software dependencies that are only available in more recent OS versions. Maintaining support for outdated systems would compromise the security of Tor Browser, as it would require disabling newer security features and mechanisms that are crucial for protecting users' online anonymity.

Note: Support for Windows 7, 8, and 8.1 and macOS 10.12 to 10.14 is discontinued with Tor Browser 14. Users on these legacy operating systems will continue to receive security updates for Tor Browser 13.5 for until at least September of 2025. Please follow the instructions on this Tor Forum post to download Tor Browser 13.5 legacy. We strongly advise users to update in order to maintain access to the most recent updates and security features provided by Tor Browser.

## TOR NARŠYKLĖS PALEIDIMAS PIRMĄ KARTĄ

### CHOOSE DISPLAY LANGUAGE

When you launch Tor Browser the display language is set to the default language of your system. Tor Browser is available in multiple languages and you can change the display language by clicking on "Change Language".

In the "Language" settings, select your desired display language from the dropdown menu.

### PRISIJUNGTI

When you start Tor Browser, you will see the Connect to Tor window. Jame bus siūloma jungtis prie Tor tinklo tiesiogiai arba sukonfigūruoti Tor Naršyklę savo ryšiui. Toggle on "Always connect automatically" to allow Tor Browser connect to the Tor network automatically with the previously saved connection settings, everytime the browser is launched.

Daugeliu atvejų, pasirinkus "Prisijungti", jums bus leista prisijungti prie Tor tinklo be jokios tolimesnės konfigūracijos.

Spustelėjus, atsiras būsenos juosta, rodanti Tor prisijungimo eigą. If you are on a relatively fast connection, but this bar seems to get stuck at a certain point, try the 'Connection Assist' or see the Troubleshooting page for help solving the problem. Or, if you know that your connection is censored or uses a proxy, you should click on "Configure Connection".

### CONNECTION ASSIST

If Tor is blocked in your location, trying a bridge may help. Connection Assist can choose one for you using your location.

If Connection Assist is unable to determine your location you can select your region from the dropdown menu and click on 'Try a Bridge'.

### KONFIGŪRUOTI

Tor Naršyklė parodys daugybę konfigūravimo parinkčių.

The Connection Assist informs you about the state of your Internet connection and your connection to the Tor network.

The first toggle is 'Always connect automatically'. If toggled on, every time you open Tor Browser, it will try to connect with your previously saved connection settings.

If you know your connection is censored, or you have tried and failed to connect to the Tor network and no other solutions have worked, you can configure Tor Browser to use a pluggable transport. 'Bridges' will display the Circumvention section to configure a pluggable transport or to connect using Bridges.

### KITOS PARINKTYS

If your connection uses a proxy you can configure it by clicking on 'Settings ...' against 'Configure how Tor Browser connects to the Internet'. In most cases, this is not necessary. You will usually know if you need to select this checkbox because the same settings will be used for other browsers on your system. Jei įmanoma, paprašykite savo tinklo administratoriaus patarimo. Jei jūsų ryšys nenaudoja tarpinio serverio, spustelėkite „Prisijungti“.

## ANTI-FINGERPRINTING

## Understanding browser fingerprinting

Browser fingerprinting is the systematic collection of information about the web browser to make educated guesses about its identity or characteristics. Each browser's settings and features create a "browser fingerprint". Most browsers inadvertently create a unique fingerprint for each user, which can be tracked across the internet. For more in-depth information on browser fingerprinting, refer to these articles on the Tor Blog: Browser Fingerprinting: An Introduction and the Challenges Ahead and Tor Browser: a legacy of advancing private browsing innovation.

## Why browser fingerprinting threatens online privacy?

First, there is no need to ask for permissions from the user to collect this information. Any script running in the browser can silently build a fingerprint of the device without users even knowing about it.

Second, if one attribute of the browser fingerprint is unique or if the combination of several attributes is unique, the device can be identified and tracked online. This means that even without cookies, a device can be tracked using its fingerprint.

## How Tor Browser mitigates fingerprinting

Tor Browser is specifically engineered to minimize the uniqueness of each user's fingerprint across various metrics. While it is practically impossible to make all Tor Browser users identical, the goal is to reduce the number of distinguishable "buckets" for each metric. This approach makes it harder to track individual users effectively.

Certain attributes, like the operating system and language, are necessary for functionality and cannot be completely hidden or spoofed. Instead, Tor Browser limits the variety within these attributes to reduce distinctiveness. For example, it limits font enumeration and applies character fallback, standardizes screen and window sizes using letterboxing, and restricts the variety of requested languages to a small, predefined set.

The key goal of Tor Browser's anti-fingerprinting protections is to make it significantly more challenging to gather enough information to uniquely identify users, thereby enhancing privacy without compromising necessary functionality.

## Anti-fingerprinting features in Tor Browser

### Letterboxing

To prevent fingerprinting based on screen dimensions, Tor Browser starts with a content window rounded to a multiple of 200px x 100px. The strategy here is to put all users in a couple of buckets to make it harder to single them out. That works so far until users start to resize their windows (e.g. by maximizing them or going into fullscreen mode). Tor Browser ships with a fingerprinting defense for those scenarios as well, which is called Letterboxing, a technique developed by Mozilla and presented in 2019. It works by adding margins to a browser window so that the window is as close as possible to the desired size while users are still in a couple of screen size buckets that prevent singling them out with the help of screen dimensions.

In simple words, this technique makes groups of users of certain screen sizes and this makes it harder to single out users on basis of screen size, as many users will have same screen size.

### User-Agent and Operating System spoofing

The User-Agent string is a value websites can use to identify details about your browser, operating system (OS), CPU architecture, vendor, and version. Since this information can reveal which OS or device a user is using, it has been a vector for browser fingerprinting, allowing websites or trackers to potentially single out users.

Tor Browser addresses this by spoofing the User-Agent. Users cannot choose a specific operating system or attempt to imitate every possible platform. Instead, Tor Browser standardizes User-Agent values to reduce uniqueness and avoid creating a false sense of privacy:

- All Windows appear as Windows 10.
- All macOS appear as OS X 10.15.
- All Android as Android 10.
- All other systems like all Linux distributions (including Tails and Qubes), *BSD and other operating systems are grouped together and reported as "Linux running X11".
- All the other details (such as the architecture) are also normalized per-platform.

In this case, the fingerprint resistance strategy in Tor Browser is to protect real values of the User-Agent by spoofing, but also have a large enough user set.

User-Agent is sent to websites as an HTTP header, and it is available to JavaScript as `navigator.userAgent`. Inconsistencies in these values can trigger anti-bot and anti-fraud systems into categorizing Tor users as a bot, and deny their requests, which in turn affects usability for Tor Browser users.

Some privacy tools or users suggest that making all users appear as Windows would offer the best cover. However, perfectly spoofing across all browser contexts is not possible and active fingerprinting methods (using fonts, features, behavior, with or without JavaScript, etc.) can often be used to infer aspects of the hardware or operating system.

Tor Browser does not let users select which OS they appear to be. This is intentional: any option to choose would only make users more unique and thus easier to fingerprint. The small set of standardized options is key to keeping users blended together, maximizing privacy for everyone.

## Other anti-fingerprinting features

In addition to letterboxing, Tor Browser employs many other features to mitigate browser fingerprinting and protect user privacy. These features include Canvas image extraction blocking, NoScript integration, and first-party isolation. For a complete list of features, please read the Tor Browser design and implementation document.

## APĖJIMAS

Kartais, tiesioginę prieigą prie Tor tinklo gali blokuoti jūsų interneto paslaugų teikėjas arba vyriausybė. Tor Naršyklėje yra keli apėjimo įrankiai, skirti apeiti šiuos blokavimus. Šie įrankiai yra vadinami "keičiamaisiais perdavimais".

### KEIČIAMŲJŲ PERDAVIMŲ TIPAI

Currently there are four pluggable transports available, but more are being developed.

obfs4 | Dėl obf4 Tor srautas atrodo atsitiktinis, taip pat neleidžia cenzoriams rasti tiltų nuskaitant internetą. obfs4 tiltai yra mažiau blokuojami nei jo pirmtakai, obfs3 tiltai.
meek | meek perdavimai padaro taip, jog atrodo, kad naršote po didžiulę internetinę svetainę, o ne naudojatės Tor. meek-azure padaro taip, jog atrodo, kad naudojatės Microsoft internetine svetaine.
Snowflake | Snowflake routes your connection through volunteer-operated proxies to make it look like you're placing a video call instead of using Tor.
WebTunnel | WebTunnel masks your Tor connection, making it appear as if you're accessing a website via HTTPS.

### KEIČIAMŲJŲ PERDAVIMŲ NAUDOJIMAS

To use a pluggable transport, click "Configure Connection" when starting Tor Browser for the first time. Under the "Bridges" section, locate the option "Choose from one of Tor Browser's built-in bridges" and click on "Select a Built-In Bridge" option. From the menu, select whichever pluggable transport you'd like to use.

Once you've selected the pluggable transport, click on "Connect" to save your settings.

Or, if you have Tor Browser running, click on "Settings" in the hamburger menu (≡) and then on "Connection" in the sidebar. Under the "Bridges" section, locate the option "Choose from one of Tor Browser's built-in bridges" and click on "Select a Built-In Bridge" option. Choose whichever pluggable transport you'd like to use from the menu and click on "OK". Jūsų nustatymai bus automatiškai išsaugoti, kai uždarysite skirtuką.

### KURĮ PERDAVIMĄ TURĖČIAU NAUDOTI?

Each of the transports listed in Tor Bridge's menu works in a different way, and their effectiveness depends on your individual circumstances.

If you are trying to circumvent a blocked connection for the first time, you should try the different transports: obfs4, snowflake, or meek-azure.

If you try all of these options, and none of them gets you online, you will need to request a bridge or manually enter bridge addresses.

Users in China will likely have to connect with a private and unlisted obfs4 bridge. Contact our Telegram Bot @GetBridgesBot and type `/bridges`. Or send an email to frontdesk@torproject.org with the phrase "private bridge cn" in the subject of the email. If you're connecting from other country, please remember to include your country or country code in the subject of the email.

Read the Bridges section to learn what bridges are and how to obtain them.

## TINKLŲ TILTAI

Most Pluggable Transports, such as obfs4, rely on the use of "bridge" relays. Kaip ir įprasti Tor retransliavimai, tinklų tiltai veikia savanorių dėka. Vis dėlto, kitaip nei įprasti retransliavimai, tinklų tiltai nėra išvardyti viešai, todėl priešininkas nėgali jų lengvai atpažinti.

Using bridges in combination with pluggable transports helps to conceal the fact that you are using Tor, but may slow down the connection compared to using ordinary Tor relays.

Other pluggable transports, like meek and Snowflake, use different anti-censorship techniques that do not rely on finding bridge addresses. You do not need to obtain bridge addresses in order to use these transports.

### TINKLŲ TILTŲ ADRESŲ GAVIMAS

Kadangi tinklų tiltų adresai nėra vieši, turėsite užklausti jų patys. Turite keletą pasirinkimų:

#### Request bridges from within Tor Browser

If you're starting Tor Browser for the first time, click on "Configure Connection" to open the Tor settings window. In the "Bridges" section, locate the option to "Find more bridges" and click on "Request bridges" for Tor Project to provide a bridge. Complete the Captcha and click "Submit". Click "Connect" to save your settings.

Or, if you have Tor Browser running, click on "Settings" in the hamburger menu (≡) and then on "Connection" in the sidebar. In the "Bridges" section, locate the option to "Find more bridges" and click on "Request bridges" for Tor Project to provide a bridge. Complete the Captcha and click "Submit". Jūsų nustatymai bus automatiškai išsaugoti, kai uždarysite skirtuką.

#### Obtain bridges from the Bridges website

Visit our bridges website. Click on 'Just give me bridges!' and copy the bridge lines. Or use advanced options to select the type of pluggable transport and only get bridges with a IPv6 address.

#### Obtain bridges via Email

Email bridges@torproject.org from a Gmail or Riseup email address and copy the bridge addresses received in the email.

#### Obtain bridges via Telegram

Send a message to @GetBridgesBot on Telegram. Tap on 'Start' or write `/start` in the chat. To get bridges, type `/obfs4` or `/webtunnel`. Copy the bridge addresses.

### TINKLŲ TILTŲ ADRESŲ ĮVEDIMAS

#### Tor Browser Desktop

If you're starting Tor Browser for the first time, click on "Configure Connection" to open the Tor settings window. In the "Bridges" section, from the option "Enter bridge addresses you already know" click on "Add new bridges" and enter each bridge address on a separate line. Click "Connect" to save your settings.

Or, if you have Tor Browser running, click on "Settings" in the hamburger menu (≡) and then on "Connection" in the sidebar. In the "Bridges" section, from the option "Enter bridge addresses you already know" click on "Add new bridges" and enter each bridge address on a separate line. Jūsų nustatymai bus automatiškai išsaugoti, kai uždarysite skirtuką.

#### Tor Naršyklė Android sistemai

Tap on 'Settings' (⚙️) and then scroll to the 'Connection' section of the settings. Tap on 'Config Bridge'. Toggle on 'Use a Bridge' and select 'Provide a Bridge I know'. Enter the bridge address.

Jei ryšys patiria nesėkmę, gali būti, kad jūsų gauti tinklų tiltai nebeveikia. Norėdami gauti daugiau tinklų tiltų adresų, naudokite vieną iš aukščiau aprašytų metodų ir bandykite dar kartą.

### BRIDGE-MOJI

Each bridge address is represented by a string of emoji characters called Bridge-mojis. The Bridge-mojis can be used to validate that the intended bridge has been added successfully.

Bridge-mojis are human-readable bridge identifiers and do not represent the quality of connection to the Tor network or the state of the bridge. The string of emoji characters cannot be used as input. Users are required to provide the complete bridge address to be able to connect with a bridge.

The bridge addresses can be shared using the QR code or by copying the entire address.

## TAPATYBIŲ TVARKYMAS

Kai prisijungiate prie internetinės svetainės, informaciją apie jūsų apsilankymą toje svetainėje gali rinkti ne tik tos svetainės operatoriai. Dabar, daugelis internetinių svetainių naudoja daugybę trečiųjų šalių paslaugų, įskaitant socialinių tinklų mygtukus „Patinka“, analizės sekiklius bei reklamos švyturėlius. Visa tai gali susieti jūsų veiklą įvairiose svetainėse.

Naudojimasis Tor tinklu neleidžia stebėtojams atrasti jūsų tikslią buvimo vietą ir IP adresą, tačiau net ir neturėdami šios informacijos jie gali susieti skirtingas jūsų veiklos sritis kartu. Dėl šios priežasties, Tor naršyklėje yra kelios papildomos ypatybės, padedančios jums valdyti, kokia informacija gali būti susieta su jūsų tapatybe.

### URL ADRESŲ JUOSTA

Tor Naršyklė sutelkia jūsų internetinį patyrimą į jūsų santykį su internetine svetaine URL adresų juostoje. Net jeigu prisijungsite prie dviejų skirtingų internetinių svetainių, naudojančių tą pačią trečiosios šalies sekimo paslaugą, Tor naršyklė privers pateikti turinį per dvi skirtingas Tor grandines, taigi, sekiklis nežinos, kad abu ryšiai yra užmegzti iš jūsų naršyklės.

Kita vertus, visi ryšiai su vienu internetinės svetainės adresu bus užmegzti per tą pačią Tor grandinę, o tai reiškia, kad galite naršyti skirtingus tos pačios internetinės svetainės puslapius atskirose kortelėse ar languose, neprarasdami jokio funkcionalumo.

URL adresų juostoje, internetinės svetainės informacijos meniu galite matyti Tor Naršyklės esamoje kortelėje naudojamos grandinės schemą.

In the circuit, the Guard or entry node is the first node and it's automatically and randomly selected by Tor. But it is different from the other nodes in the circuit. In order to avoid profiling attacks, the Guard node changes only after 2-3 months, unlike the other nodes, which change with every new domain. For more information about Guards, consult the FAQ and Support Portal.

### PRISIJUNGIMAS PER TOR

Nors Tor Naršyklė yra sukurta taip, kad įgalintų bendrą naudotojo anonimiškumą saityne, gali būti situacijų, kai yra prasminga naudoti Tor su internetinėmis svetainėmis, kurios reikalauja naudotojo vardų, slaptažodžių ar kitos identifikuojančios informacijos.

Jei prisijungiate prie internetinės svetainės naudodami įprastą naršyklę, šiame procese taip pat atskleidžiate ir savo IP adresą bei geografinę buvimo vietą. Tas pats dažnai būna ir siunčiant el. laišką. Prisijungimas prie savo socialinių tinklų ar el. pašto paskyrų, naudojantis Tor Naršykle, leidžia pasirinkti, kurią tiksliai informaciją atskleidžiate naršomoms internetinėms svetainėms. Prisijungimas naudojant Tor Naršyklę taip pat būna naudingas, jei internetinė svetainė, kurioje bandote apsilankyti, yra cenzūruojama jūsų tinkle.

Yra keli dalykai, kuriuos privalote turėti omenyje, kai prisijungiate prie internetinės svetainės naudodamiesi Tor:

- Žiūrėkite saugių ryšių puslapį, kad sužinotumėte svarbią informaciją apie tai, kaip apsaugoti savo ryšį prisijungimų metu.
- Tor Naršyklė dažnai padaro taip, jog atrodo, kad jūsų ryšys yra užmezgiamas iš visai kitos pasaulio vietos. Kai kurios internetinės svetainės, tokios kaip bankų ar el. pašto paslaugų teikėjų, gali tai traktuoti kaip požymį, kad į jūsų paskyrą buvo įsilaužta ar, kad ji yra pavojuje, ir todėl gali jus užblokuoti. Vienintelis būdas kaip tai galima išspręsti - tai atlikti internetinės svetainės rekomenduojamą paskyros atkūrimo procedūrą arba susisiekti su operatoriais ir paaiškinti situaciją.

### TAPATYBIŲ IR GRANDINIŲ KEITIMAS

Tor Browser features "New Identity" and "New Tor Circuit for this Site" options. They are also located in the hamburger or main menu (≡).

### NAUJA TAPATYBĖ

Šis parametras yra naudingas, jei norite, kad jūsų tolesnė veikla naršyklėje nebūtų susiejama su tuo, ką darėte anksčiau. Pasirinkus šį parametrą, bus užvertos visos jūsų atvertos kortelės ir langai, bus išvalyta visa asmeninė informacija, tokia kaip slapukai ir naršymo žurnalas, ir visiems ryšiams bus naudojama nauja Tor grandinė. Tor Naršyklė jus įspės, kad visa veikla ir atsisiuntimai bus sustabdyti, todėl prieš spustelėdami „Nauja tapatybė“, turėkite visa tai omenyje.

Norint naudoti šį parametrą, reikia, tiesiog, Tor Naršyklės įrankių juostoje spustelėti ant „Nauja tapatybė“.

### NAUJA TOR GRANDINĖ ŠIAI SVEITAINEI

This option is useful if the exit relay you are using is unable to connect to the website you require, or is not loading it properly. Selecting it will cause the currently-active tab or window to be reloaded over a new Tor circuit. Other open tabs and windows from the same website will use the new circuit as well once they are reloaded. This option does not clear any private information or unlink your activity, nor does it affect your current connections to other websites.

Šį parametrą taip pat galite rasti URL adresų juostoje, internetinės svetainės informacijos meniu, naujos grandinės rodinyje.

## ONION PASLAUGOS

Onion services (formerly known as "hidden services") are services, like websites, that are only accessible through the Tor network.

Onion paslaugos, lyginant jas su įprastomis paslaugomis ne privačiame internete, siūlo keletą privalumų:

- Onion services' location and IP address are hidden, making it difficult for adversaries to censor them or identify their operators.
- Visas duomenų srautas tarp Tor naudotojų ir onion paslaugų yra ištisai užšifruotas, todėl jums nereikia jaudintis dėl prisijungimo per HTTPS.
- The address of an onion service is automatically generated, so the operators do not need to purchase a domain name.
- Because of the cryptography involved, the .onion URL lets Tor ensure that it is connecting to the right location and that the connection is not being tampered with.

### KAIP PASIEKTI ONION PASLAUGĄ

Just like any other website, you will need to know the address of an onion service in order to connect to it. An onion address consists of 56 letters and numbers, followed by ".onion".

When accessing a website that uses an onion service, Tor Browser will show in the URL bar an icon of an onion displaying the state of your connection: secure and using an onion service. You can learn more about the onion service by clicking on the onion icon and the adjacent Circuit Display in the address bar.

Another way to learn about an onion site is if the website administrator has implemented a feature called Onion-Location. Onion-Location is a non-standard HTTP header that websites can use to advertise their onion counterpart. If the website that you are visiting has an onion site available, a purple suggestion pill will prompt at the URL bar in Tor Browser displaying ".onion available". When you click on ".onion available", the website will be reloaded and redirected to its onion counterpart.

## ONION SERVICE AUTHENTICATION

An authenticated onion service is a service like an onion site that requires the client to provide an authentication token before accessing the service. As a Tor user, you may authenticate yourself directly in Tor Browser. In order to access this service, you will need access credentials from the onion service operator. When accessing an authenticated onion service, Tor Browser will show in the URL bar an icon of a little gray key, accompanied by a tooltip. Enter your valid private key into the input field.

### ONION SERVICES ERRORS

If you can't connect to an onion site, Tor Browser will provide a specific error message informing why the website is unavailable. Errors can happen in different layers: client errors, network errors, or service errors. Some of these errors can be fixed by following the Troubleshooting section. The table below shows all the possible errors and which action you should take to solve the issue.

Code | Error Title | Short Description
--- | --- | ---
0xF0 | Onionsite Not Found | The most likely cause is that the onionsite is offline. Contact the onionsite administrator.
0xF1 | Onionsite Cannot Be Reached | The onionsite is unreachable due an internal error.
0xF2 | Onionsite Has Disconnected | The most likely cause is that the onionsite is offline. Contact the onionsite administrator.
0xF3 | Unable to Connect to Onionsite | The onionsite is busy or the Tor network is overloaded. Try again later.
0xF4 | Onionsite Requires Authentication | Access to the onionsite requires a key but none was provided.
0xF5 | Onionsite Authentication Failed | The provided key is incorrect or has been revoked. Contact the onionsite administrator.
0xF6 | Invalid Onionsite Address | The provided onionsite address is invalid. Please check that you entered it correctly.
0xF7 | Onionsite Circuit Creation Timed Out | Failed to connect to the onionsite, possibly due to a poor network connection.

### NESKLANDUMŲ ŠALINIMAS

If you cannot reach the onion service you requested, make sure that you have entered the onion address correctly: even a small mistake will stop Tor Browser from being able to reach the site.

If you are trying to access a 16 character (the shorter "V2 format") onion service, this type of address no longer works on today's Tor network.

You can also test if you are able to access other onion services by connecting to DuckDuckGo's Onion Service.

If you are still unable to connect to the onion service after verifying the address, please try again later. There may be a temporary connection issue, or the site operators may have allowed it to go offline without warning.

## SAUGŪS RYŠIAI

Jeigu asmeninė informacija, tokia kaip prisijungimo slaptažodis, keliauja nešifruotu pavidalu per internetą, tuomet slapta stebintys asmenys gali ją labai lengvai perimti. Jeigu prisijungiate prie kurios nors internetinės svetainės, turėtumėte įsitikinti, kad svetainė siūlo HTTPS šifravimą, kuris apsaugo nuo tokio slapto stebėjimo. Tai galite patikrinti URL adresų juostoje: jeigu jūsų ryšys yra šifruotas, adresas prasidės „https://“, o ne „http://“.

### HTTPS-Only Mode in Tor Browser

HTTPS-Only mode forces all connections to websites to use a secure encrypted connection called HTTPS. Most websites already support HTTPS; some support both HTTP and HTTPS. Enabling this mode guarantees that all of your connections to websites are upgraded to use HTTPS and hence secure.

Some websites only support HTTP and the connection cannot be upgraded. If a HTTPS version of a site is not available, you will see a "Secure Connection Not Available" page:

If you click 'Continue to HTTP Site' you accept the risk and then will visit a HTTP version of the site. HTTPS-Only Mode will be turned off temporarily for that site.

Click the 'Go Back' button if you want to avoid any unencrypted connections.

### Cryptocurrency safety

Tor Browser presents a security prompt if a cryptocurrency address has been copied from an insecure HTTP website. The cryptocurrency address could have been modified and should not be trusted. Clicking 'Reload Tab with a New Circuit' will attempt to load a secure version of the website with a new Tor circuit.

If you click 'Dismiss' you accept the risk and the cryptocurrency address will be copied to the clipboard.

### How HTTPS encryption and Tor works in Tor Browser to enhance your privacy and anonymity

Ši vizualizacija rodo, kokia informacija yra matoma klausytojams su Tor Naršykle ir „HTTPS“ šifravimais ir be jų:

- Spustelėkite mygtuką „Tor“, kad pamatytumėte, kokie duomenys yra matomi stebėtojams, kai naudojate Tor. Mygtukas taps žalias, nurodant, kad įjungtas Tor.
- Spustelėkite mygtuką „HTTPS“, kad pamatytumėte, kokie duomenys yra matomi stebėtojams, kai naudojate HTTPS. Mygtukas taps žalias, nurodant, kad HTTPS įjungtas.
- Kai abu mygtukai yra žali, matote duomenis, kurie matomi stebėtojams, kai naudojate abu įrankius.
- Kai abu mygtukai yra pilki, matote duomenis, kurie matomi stebėtojams, kai nenaudojate nė vieno įrankio.

## SAUGUMO NUSTATYMAI

Pagal numatymą, Tor Naršyklė apsaugo jūsų saugumą šifruodama jūsų naršymo duomenis. You can further increase your security by choosing to disable certain web features that can be used to compromise your security and anonymity. You can do this by increasing Tor Browser's Security Level.

### SAUGUMO LYGMENYS

Tor Naršyklės saugumo nustatymuose padidinus saugumo lygmenį, bus išjungtos arba dalinai išjungtos tam tikros naršyklės ypatybės, kad būtumėte apsaugoti nuo galimų atakų. This in turn might stop some web pages from functioning properly, so you should weigh your security needs against the degree of usability you require. You can undo the changes at any time by adjusting your Security Level and restarting the browser.

###### Standartinis

- Šiame lygmenyje visos Tor Naršyklės ir internetinių svetainių ypatybės yra įjungtos.
- Tor Browser, by default, is set to the "Standard" Security Level.

###### Saugesnis

- This level disables website features that are often dangerous. This may cause some sites to lose functionality.
- JavaScript is disabled on all non-HTTPS sites.
- Kai kurie šriftai ir matematiniai simboliai yra išjungti.
- Audio and Video (HTML5 media) are click-to-play.

###### Saugiausias

- Šis lygmuo leidžia tik tas internetinių svetainių ypatybes, kurios yra reikalingos statinėms svetainėms bei pagrindinėms paslaugoms. Šie pakeitimai paveikia paveikslus, mediją ir scenarijus.
- Pagal numatymą, Javascript yra išjungtas visose svetainėse.
- Kai kurie šriftai, piktogramos, matematiniai simboliai ir paveikslai yra išjungti.
- Audio and Video (HTML5 media) are click-to-play.

### CHANGING THE SECURITY LEVEL

To view and adjust your Security Level on Tor Browser:

- Click on the "Shield" icon (🛡️) on the address bar.
- Click on "Settings".
- It should redirect to the Tor Browser settings and display the current Security Level the browser is set to.
- Click on "Change".
- Choose between the different Security Levels - Standard, Safer or Safest.
- Click on "Save and restart" prompting the browser to restart.

## NESKLANDUMŲ ŠALINIMAS

Jeigu Tor Naršyklę naudojate pirmą kartą, netrukus po to, kai paleidote programą ir spustelėjote mygtuką „Prisijungti“, turėtumėte turėti galimybę pradėti naršyti internete naudojant Tor Naršyklę.

The Connection Assist informs you about the state of your Internet connection.

Check your Internet Connection if it says 'Offline'. If your connection to the Tor Network is not established and it reads 'Not Connected' the following steps can be helpful.

### GREITI PATAISYMAI

If Tor Browser doesn't connect, there may be a simple solution. Try each of the following:

- Jūsų kompiuterio sistemos laikrodis privalo būti nustatytas teisingai, kitaip Tor negalės prisijungti.
- Make sure another Tor Browser or instance of 'Tor' is not already running on your system. If you're not sure if Tor Browser is running, restart your computer.
- Make sure that any antivirus program you have installed is not preventing Tor from running. You may need to consult the documentation for your antivirus software if you do not know how to do this.
- Laikinai išjunkite savo užkardą.
- If Tor Browser was working before and is not working now your system may have been hibernating. A reboot of your system will solve the issue.
- Delete Tor Browser and install it again. If updating, do not just overwrite your previous Tor Browser files; ensure they are fully deleted beforehand.

### VIEW TOR LOGS

In most cases, taking a look at the Tor logs can be helpful in diagnosing the issue. If you're having trouble connecting, an error message may appear and you can select the option to "copy Tor log to clipboard". Then paste the Tor log into a text file or other document.

If you don't see this option and you have Tor Browser open, you can navigate to the hamburger menu ("≡"), then click on "Settings", and finally on "Connection" in the side bar. At the bottom of the page, next to the "View the Tor logs" text, click the button "View Logs...".

Alternatively, on GNU/Linux, to view the logs right in the terminal, navigate to the Tor Browser directory and launch Tor Browser from the command line by running:

`./start-tor-browser.desktop --verbose`

Or to save the logs to a file (default: tor-browser.log):

`./start-tor-browser.desktop --log [file]`

More information on this can be found on the Support Portal.

### AR JŪSŲ RYŠYS YRA CENZŪRUOJAMAS?

If you still can't connect, your Internet Service Provider might be censoring connections to the Tor network. Read the Circumvention section for possible solutions.

### ŽINOMOS PROBLEMOS

Tor Browser is under constant development, and some issues are known about but not yet fixed. Please check the Known Issues page to see if the problem you are experiencing is already listed there.

## ATNAUJINIMAS

Tor Naršyklė privalo būti nuolat atnaujinama. Jei tęsite naudoti pasenusią programinės įrangos versiją, galite būti pažeidžiami rimtoms saugumo spragoms, kurios statys į pavojų jūsų privatumą ir anonimiškumą.

Tor Browser will prompt you to update the software once a new version has been released: the main menu (≡) will display a green circle with an upwards facing arrow in it, and you may see a written update indicator when Tor Browser opens. You can update either automatically or manually.

### AUTOMATINIS TOR NARŠYKLĖS ATNAUJINIMAS

When you are prompted to update Tor Browser, click on the main menu (≡), then select "Update available - restart now".

Palaukite, kol atnaujinimas bus atsisiųstas ir įdiegtas, tuomet Tor Naršyklė pati pasileis iš naujo. Dabar, turėsite naujausią versiją.

### RANKINIS TOR NARŠYKLĖS ATNAUJINIMAS

Kai būsite paraginti atnaujinti Tor Naršyklę, užbaikite naršymo seansą ir užverkite programą.

Pašalinkite Tor Naršyklę iš savo sistemos ištrindami aplanką, kuriame ji yra (išsamesnei informacijai, žiūrėkite skyrių Šalinimas).

Apsilankykite https://www.torproject.org/download/ ir atsisiųskite naujausios Tor Naršyklės laidos egzempliorių, tuomet įdiekite jį kaip anksčiau.

## PAPILDINIAI, PRIEDAI IR JAVASCRIPT

### JAVASCRIPT

JavaScript yra programavimo kalba, kurią internetinės svetainės naudoja tam, kad pateiktų interaktyvius elementus, tokius kaip vaizdo įrašai, animacija, garso įrašai ir būsenos laiko linijos. Deja, JavaScript taip pat gali įgalinti išpuolius prieš naršyklės saugumą, o tai gali privesti prie deanonimizavimo.

Tor Browser includes an add-on called NoScript. It's accessible through "Add-ons and themes" on the hamburger menu (≡). Locate the NoScript add-on and click on it to open a panel where you can customize its settings.

In the panel, next to the Toolbar button, select 'Show'. This will display the NoScript button to the right of the browser address bar. This button enables you to manage JavaScript and other scripts on web pages, allowing you to control their execution individually or block them entirely.

Naudotojai, kuriems, naršant internete, reikia aukšto saugumo lygmens, turėtų nusistatyti Tor Naršyklės Saugumo lygmenį į „Saugesnį“ (kuris išjungia „JavaScript“ ne HTTPS internetinėse svetainėse) arba „Saugiausią“ (kuris tai atlieka visose internetinėse svetainėse). However, disabling JavaScript will prevent many websites from displaying correctly, so Tor Browser's default setting is to allow all websites to run scripts in "Standard" mode.

### NARŠYKLĖS PRIEDAI

Tor Naršyklė yra pagrįsta „Firefox“, todėl bet kuriuos su „Firefox“ suderinamus naršyklės priedus ar grafiniai apvalkalus taip pat galima įdiegti ir Tor Naršyklėje.

Vis dėlto, vieninteliai priedai, kurie buvo išbandyti naudojimui Tor Naršyklėje, yra tie, kurie įtraukti pagal numatymą. Įdiegę bet kokius kitus naršyklės priedus, galite sugadinti Tor Naršyklės funkcionalumą arba sukelti rimtesnių problemų, kurios paveiks jūsų privatumą ir saugumą. Yra primygtinai nerekomenduojama diegti papildomų priedų, o be to, Tor Project neteiks palaikymo tokioms konfigūracijoms.

### FLASH GROTUVAS

Flash was a multimedia software used by websites to display video and other interactive elements such as games. It was disabled by default in Tor Browser because it could have revealed your real location and IP address. Tor Browser no longer supports Flash and cannot be enabled.

The majority of Flash's functionalities have been substituted by the HTML5 standard, which heavily depends on JavaScript. Video platforms such as YouTube and Vimeo have transitioned to HTML5 and no longer utilize Flash.

## ŠALINIMAS

Pašalinti Tor Naršyklę iš savo sistemos yra paprasta:

Windows sistemos:

- Suraskite savo Tor Naršyklės aplanko ar programos vietą. Numatytoji vieta yra Darbalaukis.
- Ištrinkite Tor Naršyklės aplanką ar programą.
- Išvalykite šiukšlinę.

macOS sistemos:

- Suraskite savo Tor Naršyklės programos vietą. Numatytoji vieta yra Programų (angl. Applications) aplankas.
- Perkelkite Tor Naršyklės programą į šiukšlinę.
- Pereikite į savo `~/Library/Application Support/` aplanką.
- Turėkite omenyje, kad naujesnėse macOS versijose Bibliotekos (angl. Library) aplankas yra paslėptas. Norėdami pereiti į šį aplanką, Ieškiklio (angl. Finder) programoje, meniu "Eiti" (angl. Go), pasirinkite "Pereiti į aplanką" (angl. Go to Folder...).

- Then type `~/Library/Application Support/` in the window and click Go.

- Suraskite TorBrowser-Data aplanko vietą ir perkelkite jį į šiukšlinę.
- Išvalykite šiukšlinę.

Turėkite omenyje, kad jeigu neįdiegėte Tor Naršyklės numatytoje vietoje (Programų (angl. Applications) aplanke), tuomet TorBrowser-Data aplanko vieta nebus `~/Library/Application Support/` aplanko viduje, o bus tame pačiame aplanke į kurį įdiegėte Tor Naršyklę.

Linux sistemos:

- Locate your Tor Browser folder. On Linux, there is no default location, however the folder will be named "tor-browser".
- Launch a terminal window in the Tor Browser folder and run this command to unregister Tor Browser as a desktop application: `./start-tor-browser.desktop --unregister-app`
- Ištrinkite Tor Naršyklės aplanką.
- Išvalykite šiukšlinę.

Turėkite omenyje, kad nėra naudojama jūsų operacinės sistemos standartinė "Šalinimo" paslaugų programa.

## MOBILUS TOR

### Tor Browser for Android

### More about Tor on mobile devices

#### Orfox

Orfox was first released in 2015 by The Guardian Project, with the aim of giving Android users a way to browse the internet over Tor. Over the next three years, Orfox continuously improved and became a popular way for people to browse the internet with more privacy than standard browsers, and Orfox was crucial for helping people circumvent censorship and access blocked sites and critical resources. In 2019, Orfox was sunsetted after the official Tor Browser for Android was released.

#### Orbot

Orbot is a free proxy app that empowers other apps to use the Tor network. Orbot uses Tor to encrypt your Internet traffic. Then you can use it with other apps installed on your mobile device to circumvent censorship and protect against surveillance. Orbot can be downloaded and installed from Google Play. Check out our Support portal to know if you need both Tor Browser for Android and Orbot or either one.

#### Tor Browser for iOS

iOS neturi Tor Naršyklės. We recommend an iOS app called Onion Browser, which is open source, uses Tor routing, and is developed by someone who works closely with the Tor Project. However, Apple requires browsers on iOS to use something called Webkit, which prevents Onion Browser from having the same privacy protections as Tor Browser.

Learn more about Onion Browser. Download Onion Browser from the App Store.

#### Tor Browser for Windows Phone

Šiuo metu nėra palaikomo metodo, kaip paleisti Tor senesniuose Windows Phone įrenginiuose, tačiau naudojant naujesnius „Microsoft“ prekės ženklo / reklamuojamus telefonus, galima atlikti tuos pačius veiksmus kaip Tor Naršyklė Android sistemai.

## ŽINOMOS PROBLEMOS

- Tor reikia, kad jūsų sistemos laikrodis (ir jūsų laiko juosta) būtų nustatyti į teisingą laiką.

- Antivirus or malware protection blocking users from accessing Tor Browser. Sometimes these also pop up with false positives regarding malware and/or vulnerabilities. You can read more about this on our Support Portal. The following antivirus and firewall software have been known to interfere with Tor and may need to be temporarily disabled:

  - Webroot SecureAnywhere
  - Kaspersky Internet Security 2012
  - Sophos antivirusinė programa, skirta Mac
  - Microsoft Security Essentials
  - Avast Antivirus

- VPNs also tend to interfere with Tor and need to be disabled. We also do not recommend using VPN and Tor together unless you're an advanced user who knows how to configure both in a way that doesn't compromise your privacy. You can find more detailed information about Tor + VPN at our wiki.

- Videos that require Adobe Flash are unavailable. Flash is disabled for security reasons.

- Tor negali naudoti tinklų tilto, jeigu yra nustatytas įgaliotasis serveris.

- Issues with making Tor Browser as your default browser.

- If Tor Browser was working before and is not working now (especially after a re-install or an update), your system may have been hibernating. A reboot of your system, in that case, will solve the issue.

- Tor won't start on Windows when the folder path contains non-ascii characters.

- BitTorrent is not anonymous over Tor.

- Web Authentication (WebAuthn) and Universal 2nd Factor (U2F) (i.e. YubiKey) support is disabled in Tor Browser.

- Images uploaded on Tor Browser (Desktop and Android) are randomized.

## Telegram

We have several official Telegram bots and channels:

1. @GetTor_Bot to download Tor Browser.
2. @GetBridgesBot to get obfs4 bridges.
3. @TorProject to get the latest news.
4. @TorProjectSupportBot for help.
   - At the moment, the Telegram support channel is available in English, Russian and Farsi.
   - If you need help with circumventing censorship, please select from the menu options which region you are connecting from as it will be easier for us to follow up.

## Tor Forum

We recommend asking for help on the Tor Forum. You will need to create a account to submit a new topic. Please review our discussion guidelines and check the existing topics before asking. At the moment, for the fastest response, please write in English. If you found a bug, please use GitLab.

## WhatsApp

You can reach our support team with a text message to our WhatsApp number: +447421000612. This service is only available for text messages; videos or calls are not supported.

## Signal

You can contact our team by sending a text message to our Signal number, +17787431312, or Signal username, `@torsupport.89`. Signal is a free and privacy-focused messaging app. Currently, our support channel is available in English, Russian, Farsi and focuses on helping Tor users in censored regions. The service is only available for text messages; videos, or calls are not supported. After sending a message, our support agents will guide you and help troubleshoot your issue.

## Email

Send us an email to frontdesk@torproject.org

In the subject line of your email, please tell us what you're reporting. The more specific your subject line is (e.g. "Connection failure", "feedback on website", "feedback on Tor Browser, "I need a bridge"), the easier it will be for us to understand and follow up. Sometimes when we receive emails without subject lines, they're marked as spam and we don't see them.

For the fastest response, please write in English, Russian, Farsi, Spanish, Hindi, Bangla and/or Portuguese if you can. If none of these languages works for you, please write in any language you feel comfortable with, but keep in mind it will take us a bit longer to answer as we will need help with translation to understand it.

## IRC and Matrix

You can find us in the `#tor` channel on OFTC or Tor User Support channel on Matrix. We may not respond right away, but we do check the backlog and will get back to you when we can.

Learn how to connect to IRC / Matrix.
