Operating System: Windows 10 (Version 22H2) - Home Edition (OS Build 19045.4894)
Tor Browser Version: 15.0.10 (based on Mozilla Firefox 140.10.0esr)
Tor Browser Security Level: Standard
Step by Step of How I Got to the Issue: In the torrc file, I used the code, ExitNodes {PT} StrictNodes 0. Then, I opened the Tor Browser and started connecting to the Tor Network. However, it came to a freeze, which means that the Tor Network is not connected fully.
A Screenshot of the Issue:
