"Unable to find the proxy server" PLEASE HELP!!!

I'm trying to use my tor browser and unfortunately I'm not all that great with this kind of stuff. How do I fix the "unable to find the proxy server" message I received?

Are you using it on public wifi? If so tor could be blocked.

I would say just re-download Tor Browser from https://torproject.org and put it in a new location, see if it works "out of the box" as they say.

Or even better, use Tails.

Are you using a VPN? Does the VPN work otherwise?

Or, are you on a college network or workplace network? Because they could be blocking TOR by default.

I'm just using the wifi from my house

I've tried re downloading a few times but thanks I'll definitely look in to tails that sounds like the better option as of now

I don't believe I'm using a VPN I'm not great with this stuff so I couldn't really tell you but I am using wifi from my house so it shouldn't be blocked.
