If you turn your Tor Browser into a relay, you need to keep the browser open at all times. Relays are expected to be stable, ie. online 24/7. The instructions for Windows are meager to non-existent. I think there aren't even standalone Windows builds any more: https://dist.torproject.org/win32/ has last been updated in 2014, same for the "expert vidalia exit bundle" https://dist.torproject.org/vidalia-bundles/ . You don't want to run those. So, generally, it is possible, but relay operation on Windows is not officially supported at this point. -- Moritz Bartl https://www.torservers.net/ -- tor-talk mailing list - [email protected] To unsubscribe or change other settings go to https://lists.torproject.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/tor-talk
