The variables in the user.js will be integrated into prefs.js. The variables tell the Tor Browser that it should use the TorBox Socks5 as a proxy. Make a backup of the file prefs.js and put the file user.js in the profile directory to ensure that the correct variables are passed to the Tor Browser so that the browser is usable even if there is no own Tor instance available.Depending on whether the client is connected to the TorBox wirelessly via the TorBox AP or with a cable, the user.js or user_cable.js file must be used, which must be unnamed to user.js.Next, environment variables must be temporarily set to tell the Tor Browser not to load a Tor instance.Download the latest version of the Tor Browser and install it - preferably without changing the standard settings regarding the installation location.The three fundamental steps to use Tor Browser without an own Tor instance on the client machine is for all operating systems the same: It doesn’t work, and I’m lost 😟 Basics for all operating systems.Implementation with Windows 10 (2018 or newer).In this article, we’ll show you how to achieve this. While we believe this has no negative impact on security and anonymity, it would be more beneficial, at least for speed and efficiency, if the Tor Browser didn’t launch another Tor instance on the client machine. Such a data package would not only pass through three Tor hops but six. This means that Tor Box sends Tor browser’s data packages over the Tor network to a Tor entry guard, where they are retransmitted through the Tor network. This combination works fine, but since the Tor Browser launches its own Tor instance on the client device, we have a “ Tor over Tor” scenario. If an application from the Internet manages to break out of the browser’s containment, IP leakage is still prevented by the TorBox (see, e.g., Tor Browser Deanonymization With SMB). It also mitigates a possible weak point of the Tor Browser. However, TorBox routes not only your Web traffic but all your data through the Tor network. Wouldn’t it great to combine the use of Tor Browser and TorBox? Tor Browser prevents fingerprinting, isolates each website, clears any cookies, and browsing history.
