Brave Browser crashed suddenly & now won't launch on Windows 11


Description of the issue:
Cant access Brave Browser on Windows 11 suddenly.

How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Sign in to Windows 11
  2. Click on any Brave shortcut in Windows 11
  3. Brave doesn’t launch

Expected result:
I expect brave to launch w/o issue.

Brave Version( check About Brave):
Version 1.48.158 Chromium: 110.0.5481.77 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Additional Information:
If the only way to resolve this issue is to uninstall & re-install Brave, I’m also looking for clear & concise instructions on how to preserve/backup all user data, brave rewards data, and passwords in order to prevent data loss.

I am also interested to know if there is any relevant info in Windows 11 event logs that i could possibly provide and share with Brave support in order to dive into this a little deeper and determine the cause of the issue.
