Creating a user account for Tor +First you will need to create a new account to allow Tor to run isolated from your personal configuration as well as have manageable system permissions. + +1. To begin, open your Control Panel and select 'Accounts'. +2. On the left-side menu, select 'Family & other people'. +3. Beside the 'Add another user to this PC' subheader, click the large `+` sign. +4. A panel will now appear asking for the Windows account information. On the bottom, select the small text that states "I do not have this users sign-in information". +5.

Unpack the zipped Expert bundle into your newly created Tor directory. Two files will be placed there; one called `Tor`, and the other `Data`. +2.

Navigate to the directory you extracted Tors files. +2. Simply right-click on the `tor.exe` file and select 'Run as other user' from the drop-down menu, and enter the password for your Tor account when prompted. +* **Note:** Be sure **not** to click the 'Run as administrator' button - this is dangerous! + +### 3.2 Method 2: Command line + +1. Open your command prompt. Navigate to `C:\Users\user\torrelay\tor\Tor` with the command `cd C:\Users\user\torrelay\tor\Tor`. +2. Type `RUNAS /user:torrelay tor.exe` and press enter. If you have your `torrc` file somewhere other than the default location (Like the `home` folder), specify the path with the `-f` flag. +* Example: `RUNAS /user:torrelay tor.exe -f C:\Users\user\torrelay\tor\Tor\torrc` +3. You should now see Tor starting up in your terminal. Wait until its finished bootstrapping. +4. After a short period it should publish its OrPort, and you will be successfully relaying traffic for the Tor Network. + * **Notice:** Depending on your systems settings, Tor may fail to start and produce an error indicating it is unable to create files. If this occurs, simply open the Windows Defender Security Center and select "App & browser control". Add the tor.exe file to the permissions list, then rerun `tor.exe` from the command line. Tor should now start up normally. +--- +html: two-columns-page.html +--- +key: 8 +--- +section: Middle/Guard relay +--- +section_id: relay-operations +--- +subtitle: How to deploy a middle/Guard relay on Windows +---
