Hello,
I have installed Tor, however like so often in Linux, I cannot start the application.

Code: 
dpkg-query -L tor

gives me:

I didn't find any .sh-file?? Which one is the right directory? Thanks
 


Ok thanks for this, however using torbrowser-launcher I got the Browser error:

"The Tor Browser Bundle should not be run as root. Exiting." Why is this?
 
Which release of Kali Linux have you got?

Are you automatically Root, or can you choose? What happens if you input to a Terminal: torbrowser-launcher

What does your command line look like? Does it have an $ sign or a # sign?

Then the application stops, commandline sing is "#".
 
What happens if you input: exit
after the #?
 
Have you logged in as Root and not a normal user?

Yes, I understand. I'm logged in as root on my Kali on the VM, but I also intalled Kali Linux on a stick, which should be better anyway. There I'm logged in as a normal user.
 
O.k. if I my add this question, I installed TOR now on my Kali stick (Kali 2020 / normal user) it works fine, however the next time I start the system, TOR is gone, why is this?
 
As I have said several times there are 3 ways of putting a distro on a USB stick.
Normal. This is like a LiveCD. EVERYTHING you install will be LOST when you reboot
Persistence. This is like having a Home on the stick. SOME stuff can be saved BUT NOT ALL.
Full Install. EVERYTHING will be SAVED when you reboot.

I think you have a normal install and anything you install will be lost when you reboot.

Thanks a lot man!!

I have a persistance partition now. When I click on that partition it says: "Cannot eject drive in use: Device /dev/sdb1 is mounted
I don't want to eject the partition at all, just write some data in it!? (I think at least that the partition is there for writing data that "persists")
