now I need the private key file to upload it to the TOR host's server. I want to know how to proceed in detail to create the private key file from the 3 files.
thank you!
Keep in mind that by uploading your hs_ed25519_secret_key to ANY third party hosting you're losing control over it. Beauty of TOR is you can run your Hidden Service from your own hardware and be perfectly safe
The secret key (hs_ed25519_secret_key) is the onion service's private key.
The hs_ed25519_secret_key file does not have an extension. You should add this file to your tor hidden service directory. This is often in /var/lib/tor/, but it depends on how you installed tor. You also need to make sure to set the correct permissions for this file. You will also need to set up the onion service in your torrc file. You might find this helpful for learning the directory structure: https://famicoman.com/2018/01/05/configuring-a-tor-hidden-service/

hs_ed25519_secret_key file as that is the private key.
The secret key (hs_ed25519_secret_key) is the onion service's private key. its a base 64 encoded file its easy to decode that go to the website https://base64.guru/converter/encode/file then select the file and click enter boom! u will get the string file into txt format i tried and it worked so yea u can check it out
