You would think I would be able to just Google this question, but I mostly get results for VPN instead of VM which are completely different things, and general non-committal answers so I am trying to ask here.

If I had a Windows host system, setup a Windows guest system in Virtual Box, and then installed Tor on said guest system inside the VM, would TOR function correctly within that VM? Or would somehow the anonymity be compromised going from the virtual guest OS to the host os and through it’s internet connection?

Basically would TOR in a VM still be as anonymous as if I was running TOR natively on the host OS without a VM?
