I believe we’ve found the problem on 1.5.113 and are working on a fix :slight_smile:

Nightly / Dev / Beta all had an issue too which we solved (involving the Bat Ledger process. That was a different problem)

Here’s something you all can try in the meantime, as a work-around:

  1. Visit brave://flags/#brave-adblock-cosmetic-filtering
  2. Enable this option
  3. You’ll be prompted to restart- go ahead and do that
  4. Problem should be fixed :smile:

Please let us know how this goes! Thanks
