Is there a way to enable the Tor / Onion pairing feature so I can route transactions from wallets on my phone etc through my Bitcoin Knots node? Thank you

It should automatically work if Tor is installed in your system's PATH, but I'm not sure if that's standard on Windows.

Thanks for your reply! I'm wondering if there are instructions anywhere in order to figure out how to do this?

I followed the instructions on this page https://windowsloop.com/how-to-add-to-windows-path/

However Bitcoin Knots is still behaving the same way.
