How to specify IP country on TOR (windows)?

Question

I can change that easily on linux using torrc file, but cannot find the option on tor browser for windows.

It looks like it can be done via "vidalia": but how to access that ? I cannot find any vidalia on my TOR browser

Answer 1

The Tor Browser Bundle on Windows includes a torrc file which should be located at \Browser\TorBrowser\Data\Tor\torrc under where you install Tor Browser to.

You can add or change the ExitNodes option in the file to the country you want to use (e.g. {US}).

If you're using the Expert Bundle, it does not ship with a torrc file, but you can specify one when you run Tor from the command line:

tor.exe -f C:/path/to/torrc

Or just specify your options from the command line:

tor.exe -f C:/path/to/torrc ExitNodes {US} 

Get the default copy of torrc from here.

Answer 2

The country code list is available here -> http://startup-bootcamp.fr/liste-des-codes-des-pays-tor/

You can choose or exclude specific country in your torrc configuration file.
