okay so, after some stuff that happened to me on the internet i decided to use tor browser (more secure). so , i'm having an issue with flash player. there is an option in the settings that says "Disable browser plugins (Such as flash )". by default , its checked, but when i try to uncheck it and click OK , its still checked.
any chance someone knows what the problem may be?

Tor browser isn't about security, it's about anonymity, but only if you can trust the exit nodes, because they could start a man in the middle attack.

I wouldn't run any personal browsing session like shopping or even using a community site like MAL with it.

edit: unless you have to go to the deep web, I'd rather spent a few bucks monthly for a VPN, but only for bypassing restrictions.

That's what I'd like to know as well :o !!!

but seriously, back to topic:
I would try to reinstall both the TOR browser and the Flash Player.

You could also test Tails and see whether that works for you.

TOR is really good for bypassing filters. Just avoid the deep web because you might stumble on some child porn and that's just nasty.

Tor, by default, will block browser plugins such as Flash, RealPlayer, Quicktime, and others. They can be manipulated into revealing your IP address.
So don't ever enable these plugins when surfing the deep web.

If you'll just surf the deep web, you're pretty much safe.
As long as you don't buy/sell drugs, sell national secrets or watch/share/download child porn.
The authorities have bigger fish to fry.
