Is there a way to turn on cookies with Tor? I am only using it to stop snooping ISP, nothing else. I have seen several people ask, but they are always answered with "Its possible but don't do it" and no explanation.

Use an isolated regular browser and it will work as you expect it. I recommend VirtualBox or KVM virtual machine routed through Tor's transparent port. It will ensure that no leak will happen and you will have just a normal browsing capabilities. Be sure to use DNS-over-HTTPS that is built-in in like all modern browsers nowdays. I recommend Firefox with it's cookie separation feature already implemented

That does not answer my question. Can you turn on cookies with the Tor Browser?– Dex HiroCommented Nov 8 at 5:18

no, not with Tor browser - it's tailored on the source code level to prevent privacy leaks at all costs because it's launched as an application, not a VM. So - many functions are tweaked or sacrificed for the sake of keeping the safety at it's best in the case. The answer for your question is in my answer - you will achieve exactly what and how you want safely if you will do as I said– Alexey Vesnin ♦Commented Nov 8 at 14:04

is that portable? (ex. can have all data on a USB drive or sd card)– Dex HiroCommented Nov 20 at 1:22

yes you certainly can! just put a VM's drive image file on the USB drive or sd card– Alexey Vesnin ♦Commented Nov 20 at 23:53
