Brave crashes upon launch on brand new M1 iMac 12.1

@ZiG-ZaG , @Mattches

Some of the “Brave crashes upon launch” of late, may be related to that dmg installer:

PS. Good to know that the pkg installer survives installation.

Otherwise, both @ZiG-ZaG and @CiscoCampos have both discovered that there is something within the “BraveSoftware” folder:

/Users/user_shortname/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware/

that is probably causing the “crash at/after launch” problem. A possible cause (my guess for the moment), is:

“chrome-extension://mnojpmjdmbbfmejpflffifhffcmidifd”

located here:

/Users/user_shortname/Library/Application Support/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/Local Extension Settings/mnojpmjdmbbfmejpflffifhffcmidifd

because

source: chrome-extension://mnojpmjdmbbfmejpflffifhffcmidifd/out/brave_extension_background.bundle.js

is throwing a lot of errors (showing up in the Mac OS Console):

And there, Mattches has a request for users who experience the crashes, to set their Brave Browsers to automatically send diagnostic reports:
