Anonsurf preinstalled not working

Briefly describe your issue below:

dear Parrot Support,

I have some problems…

from Terminal Command Line:
I am currently running anonsurf from command line and everything is ok except 1 issue from command line: sudo anonsurf mymac (mymac is not found on the script.) Besides this small issue, which i hope is made perfect, there is no other issues from the command line.

form Applications Menu (top left hand corner):
from the applications menu, anonsurf is receiving these errors:

[ i ] Starting anonymous mode:

Tor is not running! starting it for you

What version of Parrot are you running? (include version, edition, and architecture)

Linux parrot 4.19.0-parrot1-13t-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.19.13-1parrot1.13t (2019-01-09) x86_64 GNU/Linux

What method did you use to install Parrot? (Debian Standard / Debian GTK / parrot-experimental)

USB stick

Configured to multiboot with other systems? (yes / no)

no. only parrot exists

If there are any similar issues or solutions, link to them below:

If there are any error messages or relevant logs, post them below:

Sysctl not found ?? It’s get of from my head

Reinstall or first perfom update

dpkg --configure -a
apt --fix-broken install 
apt autoremove 
parrot-upgrade

Since version 4.4 of Parrot OS I have had problem with Anonsurf when I stars it from “Applications” menu.

I have used commands from from AnonSurf not resetting to original. It didn’t help me to solve the problem and start Anonsurf.

After the last update of Parrot OS I have used commands from post above Anonsurf preinstalled not working - #3 by Amzker. There was no messege of broken install or something should be upgraded, because OS had been upgraded before, but after reboot I could start Anonsurf from the command line as it is written in the topic Anonsurf problem. .

So, using “anonsurf start”, and “anonsurf stop” from terminal should be ok in version 4.5.1.
