New in ProxAllium 0.4.2.7 (Sep 23, 2019)
- This is a maintainence release with some updates to how ProxAllium is packaged, I no longer wish to package Tor along with ProxAllium for various reasons, mainly that I was no longer using ProxAllium in Windows myself and it was getting harder to keep track of new Tor releases and push an updated package everytime.
- I understand that it has been a while since the last release, but many things have happened since. I now have a full-timeish job that keeps me busy and I have also switched to Linux as my main operating system a while ago. The good news is that I have been working on a cross-platform version of ProxAllium, the progress is slow due to myself not being very experienced at writing a program in C and interacting with the system on a lower level... and also my job takes most of my time.
- Additions:
- A new interactive guide for setting up Tor
- A new setting to define the path for obfs4 pluggable transport in the configuration file
- Changes:
- Tor is no longer packaged along with ProxAllium
New in ProxAllium 0.4.1.0 Beta (Jul 11, 2018)
- Same as v0.4 but with a fix for the "Automatically start with Windows" option, it was broken in the previous release as the working directory was not set and relative paths were resolved incorrectly leading to a "Cannot find Tor" error
New in ProxAllium 0.4.0.0 Beta (Jul 10, 2018)
- Additions:
- ProxAllium now directly communicates with TorThis means Tor is handled properly and opens up more possibilities!
- Support for bridges with pluggable transports obfs (all versions) and scramblesuit, GUI included for configuration
- Support for HTTP tunnel
- Added documentation for all INI options
- Added an option to start with Windows
- Added an option to start minimized
- Added an option to regenerate Tor configuration
- Added an option to switch to clean Tor circuits
- Fixed and changes:
- Tor Output now resets after starting Tor instead of resetting everytime Tor stops or crashes
- Paths from configuration (config.ini) are no longer converted to absolute paths internally, this prevents use of absolute paths in the generated torrc file which may cause portability issues
New in ProxAllium 0.3.3.7 Beta (Jun 28, 2018)
- Same as v0.3-beta but with the patch for the version detection code which can handle a version string without a git hash. Built from the v0.3-beta_hotfix branch.
New in ProxAllium 0.3.2.9 Beta (Jan 29, 2018)
- Same as v0.3-beta but with the patch for the version detection code which can handle a version string without a git hash. Built from the

- Fixes and changes
- Closing the Tor Output window will no longer prompt to stop Tor
- AsciiDoc is used instead of Markdown
- Fixed crashing if Tor was not initialized properly
- Tor is handled better internally (ProxAllium can detect crashes now)
- config.ini uses relative paths instead of absolute paths which can cause problems in a portable environment (Fixes #1)
- UPX is no longer used to compile ProxAllium, this should reduce anti-virus false positives.
- More minor internal changes
- Changes independent of ProxAllium’s code
- New website with documentation, screenshots, webchat etc!
