00:00All right, what's up? I'm Ayan and in this video I am going to show you how to create your
00:03own Tails OS operating system
00:05USB drive that you can use anywhere
00:08you want and
00:10Tails OS is currently the most secure operating system that you can have and it is very portable. So if
00:17you want to
00:18you know have
00:21Extraordinary privacy like Tor browser and it is also recommended by Edward Snowden if you don't know about him
00:27What do you know?
00:28Okay, Tails OS is a portable operating system. So I'm going to go ahead and tell you how you can
00:35install it
00:35I am using Windows laptop. So I am going to select install this from Windows
00:40I will provide the link in the description so you can go ahead and check it out for yourself
00:44Let's click on the first step which is to download the Tails OS
00:48Simply click on download Tails OS USB image and this will start downloading the image
00:53This will take a little bit of your time. So just be patient and don't you do anything else?
01:00Once your download is complete you can click on keep and this will save the download and
01:05Make sure you always always verify your download it checks for if it was corrupted during download or things like
01:13that
01:14So I am going to open up real quick this will take a little bit of time but it will
01:18make sure the Tails OS operating system is working
01:21As it should be the most secure and the fastest way
01:26Okay, so this is verifying and it is going to take a little bit of your time
01:30Make sure you ready your USB drive because we are going to use our USB drive
01:37It is meant to be used on USB drive, you know
01:40Okay, so it is downloading the best part about Tails OS is that once you unplug it everything is deleted
01:47instantly
01:48Which is very good for privacy focused users and some other people
01:54And I don't want to go in more so much details
01:57Okay, so the verifying is almost complete looks like verification was successful
02:03Now let's go ahead to the third step which is to download Rufus and this you should download this Rufus
02:09not use the other regular Rufus
02:10This is sometimes our special Rufus maybe
02:15Okay, once open you have downloaded both of these files click on open file for Rufus
02:20Say yes to the prompt and say no to the internet option right here because we want to make it
02:30the secure way
02:32It should not connect to the internet for you
02:34Okay, once you have downloaded Rufus and selected the no option
02:39After saying yes to the prompt and now you can plug in your USB drive
02:44I am going to plug in my 8 GB USB drive which I use regularly
02:49And it has Vento installed on it
02:52It is okay
02:53Before doing anything let's make sure we read the instructions clearly
02:57Yep make sure the USB image is actually called .img you can see right here
03:03Now you can select and select your operating system
03:07Let's see if we can change anything
03:10No you cannot change anything here
03:12So is there anything that we need to do
03:15You can enter your password if you are asked for it
03:18Installation will take a little bit again
03:20Okay, click on start and this will destroy everything on the USB
03:24And you will get a bootable USB with TailsOS installed on it
03:27Now while this is writing some image
03:31We need to wait a little bit
03:33Okay, looks like this is it
03:35Now I am just going to speed up this process
03:39Just for you guys
04:16Okay, so I read the next page and there is nothing to be worried about
04:20If you get any problems you can deal with it after reading and doing anything
04:24Okay, now you can close everything on your computer
04:27And your USB is ready to use
04:30So on your computer there are two ways to boot from USB
04:33In my case I am following the article
04:36So I am just gonna hold the shift key while restarting my PC
04:43This will already give me options
04:45Or you can just keep smashing the F12 or one time boot key
04:50On your laptop or your computer
04:52This will give you the option to boot from USB drive
04:55Select the USB drive
04:56And the TailsOS will boot
04:58I am using the default option
05:02Which is the hold shift key from Windows and restart it
05:08You don't need to use that if you are using someone else's computer or PC
05:13Well, if you are using your own Windows device
05:16You can use it and boot into the TailsOS operating system
05:21Well, now let's wait for it to give me the option
05:25This is going to take a little bit of your time
05:28Depends on the speed of your laptop
05:30I have a very old laptop
05:31I am thinking about making a review video of my laptop
05:36Like if you want that video
05:40Ok, I should make a video on review of this laptop
05:43Ok, on here we get the option to use a device
05:48I am just gonna click on it and select the SMI USB disk
05:51This is the one that I need to use it
05:55And this will restart my laptop
05:58And it will boot from the USB
06:02This is going to take a little bit of time
06:05Ok, now it is starting to boot from the USB
06:09And it is giving kind of an error
06:11But that's nothing to worry about
06:13You get three options
06:14And it will auto boot you in the first one
06:17Which is the one that you should use
06:19If you don't get any issues
06:22If you want to troubleshoot
06:23You can use the setup options
06:25And the third option is
06:26I don't know about it
06:27So, the first option it is
06:29Now this is the preparing Tails for first use
06:32Because I am using it for the first time in my life
06:36I have never used Tails before
06:39But I have heard about it
06:41And it is also called the most secure
06:44And trusted operating system
06:47And the ideal choice
06:49If you wanna use it as a portable operating system
06:53And sometimes that you need it
06:55You can use it and trust it
06:58Ok, now we wait
07:01It is booting
07:02My USB is kind of slow
07:04And looks like Tails OS does not come with the wallpaper
07:10Ok, maybe it is a design choice
07:11Here you get the options to use persistent storage
07:15And change some settings
07:17But I am going to use it as it is
07:20Persistent storage is for the ones who want to
07:22You know, keep some files
07:24Change settings and things like that
07:26But I am going with the default one
07:28Because I want the maximum security possible
07:30So, yep
07:33We don't get the wallpapers
07:34And if you press the windows key
07:35You get this option
07:37This is like
07:39What this environment was called
07:43I don't remember it
07:48Yeah
07:49I don't remember its name
07:52Anyway, let's start using the Tails OS
07:55So, here we go
07:56We get some apps
07:58Which are pre-installed
08:00You get two workspaces
08:01This is the Tor Browser
08:02And Tor Connection
08:03If you wanna use the Tor Browser
08:05I highly recommend
08:06Turn on Tor Connection
08:07This which gives you the most secure operation
08:10Or most secure browsing experience
08:14Ok, we get some apps right here
08:16We got the videos
08:17Some utilities options
08:20Yep, these are good for checking or doing some stuff
08:24Day to day stuff
08:25It does not come with the regular browser
08:28Yep, because it is for the safety and security
08:32And all of these apps are 100% open source
08:35Which means they are safe to use
08:37If you are like
08:38Worried about your safety or data privacy
08:42So, this is how you use Tails OS
08:44Anyway, that's been it
08:45Thanks for watching
08:46And I will catch you guys in the next one
08:48Take care, bye bye
08:49Bye
