If you encounter issues accessing the Tornado web version, you can try using the Tornado CLI version (command line).

Currently, there are two versions available:

• https://github.com/tornadocash/tornado-cli (Official Original Version)

• https://git.tornado.ws/tornadocash/tornado-cli (Theo Maintained Version)

I have tried all two versions, and only the Theo version works for me.

(❗️❗️The following steps use the Theo version on Windows 10 as an example!)

Open the Theo Maintained Version link: https://git.tornado.ws/tornadocash/tornado-cli

After downloading, you’ll have the tornado-cli-master.zip source code package. Place it anywhere, preferably in a dedicated folder for easier management (e.g., create a tornado folder in drive D).

Extract tornado-cli-master.zip to the tornado folder, resulting in a folder named tornado-cli.

🟢 Step 2: Install Node.js Runtime Environment

Open the Node.js official website:

https://nodejs.org/

Run the installer and proceed with the default “Next” options until completed.

Check the Node.js installation by verifying the version:Open the tornado-cli extracted directory (e.g., D:\tornado\tornado-cli).

Open Windows PowerShell as an administrator from the “File” menu.

In the terminal, type node -v and press Enter. If the version number (v20.17.0) appears, the installation was successful.

Similarly, check the npm version by typing npm -v. Ensure it is at least version 10.5.0. Lower versions may not work properly.

In the same PowerShell window, type npm install and press Enter.

This will begin downloading the required dependency libraries for Tornado CLI (❗️❗️It may take some time; do not close the window).

If you see “Error” messages during the process, repeat the npm install command until it completes without errors.

Note: If the dependency download is slow or fails, you can set the npm registry to a local mirror by running:

npm config set registry https://registry.npmmirror.com

Then Run npm install again.
