Please note that my previous answer with the command sudo apt install tor install a tor network service not the tor browser (which is a firefox set with several plugins and settings for enhanced security like PureBrowser) I guess you mean “Tor Browser window” (which doesn’t open), this seems weird but cannot be sure about how you installed tor browser. When I press Tor browser the Tor browser pages doesn’t itself open? You can always comment out your source in /etc/apt//jessie-backports.list to prevent accidentally installing other software. You will need to run these commands as super user sudo printf "deb jessie-backports main contrib\n" > /etc/apt//jessie-backports.list and understand that this is authorizing your machine to install software from a non-free, untrusted source. Next, I went to this site and followed the instructions for Debian 8 “Jessie”.There seem to be some configuration steps needed to make this work from the current free repository. Next, to run tor from the Terminal, I typed torbrowser-launcher This ran the installer, which seemed to crash.For me, it just installed in /usr/sbin/tor If the install location is not in your $PATH, then your system won’t find the software. If your installation was successful, type which torbrowser-launcher and you will see where it was installed.Type sudo apt-get install torbrowser-launcher to download and install the tor package, hopefully in one of those recognized paths.This will show you all the directory paths your system will follow to find installed software. Hit the Purism button (the rectangle) and start typing Terminal, then select the Terminal app.It sounds like you installed from the package manager, is that correct? What I see in Package Manager is not the Tor Browser, but the ‘Tor Browser Launcher’ app to manage the Tor Browser Bundle (software bundle). I have never used Tor but have been curious about it and so I decided to do some troubleshooting for you.
