Description of the issue:
When I open a new window or tab, approximately 75%+ of the time as soon as I start typing into the address bar, Brave freezes and I shortly get the Windows (Not Responding). It’ll clear and I am able to use the address bar again and I don’t have further issues until I open a new tab. When I’m already on a website that is not the default homepage and type into the address bar, I don’t have this issue.
How can this issue be reproduced?
Be on the latest version of Brave, on Windows 11 Pro
Open a new Brave browser window
Start typing in the address bar
Expected result:
Ideally, Brave wouldn’t freeze every time I use it I’m resorting to other browsers most of the time since it’s so annoying.
Brave Version( check About Brave):
1.71.121 Additional Information:
Same problem here, I’m running Windows 11 and also have the Citrix receiver running, I noticed it happens when I have data on my clipboard copied from my Citrix desktop session, it doesn’t happen if the data was copied from my local machine where Brave is installed.
I also have this problem, for about 3 weeks now. Super annoying.
I’ve disabled all extensions (only have one installed anyway). I cleared browsing data, cache, cookies, the works. I disabled suggestions. None of that made a difference.
I also use Chrome (some stuff for work that requires it) and Firefox (was installed by default with Fedora, which is what I use) and none of those browsers have this problem, ever.
