How to set up the Tor browser on Linux Mint in a VM with a VPN on the Host

Question

(Forgive me, I don't know whether to post this here for in the "Information Security" community)

I'm brand new to Tor, I understand the basics of how it works and the Do's & Don'ts. I have a Windows 10 computer (Fully up to date) with Virtual Box installed. Within the VB I have Linux Mint installed, set up and ready to go. I have also downloaded the Tor browser from the official website. However when I boot the browser it asks me if I want to just connect and go, or if I want to configure the browser if I have a VPN running. Thing is my Host Windows 10 system has ProtonVPN installed and active. So my question is do I need to configure the Tor browser even though the VPN is on the host? If I do need to configure it, how do I do that? Thanks.

Answer 1

Upon further research, you can run the VPN client on the host and the VM will be affected too. As long as the VM is tied to the host using NAT.

Thanks to no one. Great community...
