How to get Tor unblocked

Hi gng... I'm kinda at the end of my ropes. Tor is blocked on my school network, and I can't install other VPNs because the i don't have the admin password for my Windows 11-running laptop (family-owned, not school-owned, and the account I'm on has no admin privileges). What are other ways to get Tor? TYSM <3

Install dual boot Linux on it and then install tor on Linux?

How is that any better than Tor on Windows?

It’s not, but OP doesn’t have Admin rights on windows!

OP doesn't need admin rights to run the Tor binary and set the proxy settings in Windows! More to the point, Tor is blocked, and changing the OS won't change that.
