Unable to disable proxy in Tor Browser
I'm trying to use tor browser for normal browsing, in other words I'm not going through tor. I want to use tor browser just for the privacy it offers. I am unable to disable the proxy. When I do I get this error message:
Unable to find the proxy server Firefox is configured to use a proxy server that can't be found.
It happens if I have it set to no proxy or I have it set to manual proxy but with everything blank.
As a workaround I created a proxy on my machine and set the tor browser to that proxy. My use may be rare but it seems like a good idea to make the Tor Browser work for people who just want the enhanced privacy, but not necessarily to send their traffic over tor.
If this is not a bug could add a setting like "network.proxy.tor_proxy_not_required" that would let me use Tor Browser without a proxy. Thanks
