[] Downloading errors - allewyn - Feb 23, 2022
Downloading in Tor gives this/these error/s:
Quote:The address wasn’t understoodI had just installed Tor in Linux Mint 20.3 and wasn't aware it had loaded inside Firefox.
Firefox doesn’t know how to open this address, because one of the following protocols (magnet) isn’t associated with any program or is not allowed in this context.
You might need to install other software to open this address.
Can someone explain if I did something wrong or what to do next?
Thanks

By default, Firefox doesn't understand Magnet links.
You should have Transmission in your OS environment by default. Copy the link and paste it to Transmission by going to File, Open URL.
That should do the trick.
