ubuntu repo keeps requesting connection to tor circuit
hey everyone ,
long story short I'm sometimes bored and I like to mess about with the PC. So i thought I'd look into setting up proxies manually. I also had tor browser installed. So anyway when I go try to update my packages via ubuntu repos in terminal i get this message :
Could not connect to 127.0.0.1:9050 (127.0.0.1). - connect (111: Connection refused)
prior to this message It would state that "this is not a http connection" or " this is running on the Tor network" etc. so after some researching I understalled Tor browser and literally purged the app. However , I'm still getting this error and so I sumised that 127.0.0.1 is a proxy on a loopback and so ubuntu when updating is trying to connect to the proxy instead of my locat router network i.p
How do I remove the proxy and set it to my current i.p?
btw, I found a file called "torrc" file which gives instructions toenable / disable proxies but which I cannot make any sense of . If anyone has any ideas I'd appreciate some help thanks.
