Edit curr torrc: comments # in the configuration file will lead to " Error at line 1: "" "
When a comment line is at the beginning or somewhere else in the config-file, you will receive an error ("Error at line 1" when the comments are at the beginning)
Workaround:
- Delete comments prior to saving the file (using "apply all" setting)
- mark all configuration parameters except the comments and use option "Apply selection only"
Option "Save settings" is set to on. OS: Windows7
Here is an example with a config-file with comments:
This file was generated by Tor; if you edit it, comments will not be preserved
The old torrc file was renamed to torrc.orig.1 or similar, and Tor will ignore it
