   • Or add user to appropriate groups

2. Missing Dependencies

   • Install all requirements: pip install -r requirements.txt
   • Update system packages if needed

3. VPN Connection Fails

   • Check OpenVPN configuration file
   • Ensure OpenVPN is installed
   • Verify network connectivity

4. TOR Service Won't Start

   • Install TOR: sudo apt install tor
   • Check service status: sudo systemctl status tor

Performance Notes

• System monitoring updates every 2 seconds
• Disable monitoring for better performance on low-end systems
• Close unused tabs to reduce resource usage

Development

Adding New Features

The application is modular and extensible:

• Add new views in create_*_view() methods
• Extend monitoring in update_*() methods
• Add navigation buttons in create_sidebar()

Customization

• Modify colors in setup_styles()
• Adjust update intervals in start_monitoring()
• Add new browser options in browser configuration

Security Considerations

• Application requires elevated privileges for some features
• VPN configurations may contain sensitive information
• Network scanning may trigger security alerts
• Use responsibly and in accordance with local laws
