In this tutorial, I'm going to show you
0:02
how you can troubleshoot your Tor
0:03
browser app. So, if you have been
0:05
getting a lot of errors whenever you try
0:07
to open this app, maybe it keeps on
0:09
crashing or it can't just open at all,
0:12
then let me show you how you can fix
0:14
this and get your browser up and
0:16
running. If you find this video helpful,
0:18
I'll kindly request that you support me
0:20
by liking the video and also by
0:22
subscribing to this channel. Now the
0:24
first thing you need to do is to access
0:26
the app information page and that's
0:28
where we shall do our first
0:29
troubleshooting. Now to access the to
0:31
browser app information page it is quite
0:33
simple. Just go to settings and I look
0:38
and from here scroll down until you see
0:40
this option called apps. Tap on it and
0:44
then you will see apps here. Now
0:46
depending on your smartphone I'm on a
0:48
Redmi smartphone. This process should be
0:50
more or less the same on any other
0:52
Android smartphone. From this, look for
0:54
this option called manage apps for some
0:56
smartphones. It might be written all
0:59
apps. Go ahead and tap on it. And then
1:02
this will list all the apps that you
1:04
have on your smartphone. Scroll down
1:06
until you find your app. And as you can
1:08
see, mine is here. If the list is too
1:11
long, you can as well or if you can't
1:13
see your app, you can as well search it
1:14
here. So, I'll proceed and tap on my
1:17
tour browser app. And you can see I'm on
1:19
the app information page here. Now, if
1:21
getting to this page is quite tedious,
1:23
let me show you a shortcut method that
1:25
you can use to get here. For this, just
1:28
go back and look for your browser. And
1:30
here I am. And then long press on it.
1:33
And you'll see app info. If you tap on
1:36
it now, you can see it will take you to
1:39
the same page. From here, we want to
1:41
make our first troubleshooting by
1:43
clearing the app cache data. And you can
1:46
simply do this by typing on clear data.
1:47
So if I come here under storage, you can
1:50
see we have a lot of cache data. Now
1:52
when you talk of cache files, we are
1:54
talking of small files that your app
1:56
normally stores to enhance user
1:58
experience. The problem is accumulation
2:00
of these files might cause your browser
2:03
not to function. So to clear them, look
2:06
for this option called clear data here
2:08
and then tap on clear cache. Then okay.
2:12
And as you can see the cache data for
2:15
this app has been cleared. From here,
2:17
restart your smartphone and then try
2:19
opening your app. And now it should be
2:22
working fine. However, if this didn't
2:24
solve your problem, then you might want
2:25
to go ahead and clear all the data for
2:27
your app and then try opening it. So, if
2:30
these two methods didn't solve your
2:31
problem, then head to the third and the
2:33
last method. And that is to look for any
2:36
update through Google Play Store or App
2:38
Store for this app. For my case, I'm on
2:40
Android and therefore I'll go ahead and
2:42
look for the app through Google Play
2:43
Store. So I'll come to play store here
2:45
and tap on it. Then look for your app.
2:47
As you can see mine is here. Look for
2:50
any option called update. If you find
2:52
it, go ahead and tap on update to fix
2:54
this issues. One of the problem where
2:56
your app might be malfunctioning is
2:58
because you've been using an outdated
3:00
version of to browser. So by updating it
3:03
to the latest version, you'll be able to
3:04
fix this problems and get your app
3:07
running. If you have any other question,
3:08
kindly let me know in the comment
3:10
section. Otherwise, thanks for watching
3:11
and let's meet in the next video.
