Brave is Always On Top until I force it off, then turns on again soon

Browser Support Desktop Support

Description of the issue:

In the Windows Brave Browser, on at least one of my endpoints, multiple versions (including current)…

  • Brave eventually has the “Always On Top” (AOT) attribute set, so it covers all other windows all the time.
  • Workaround: use Windows PowerToys to first Enable (win-ctrl-T) then disable (win-ctrl-T again) AOT. Now it’s off… at least for a few days.

How can this issue be reproduced?

IF you have an endpoint w/ this, it’s simple:

  1. Open Brave browser
  2. Open any other window. It will be hidden behind Brave, period.

I realize this is painful since not easily reproduced. Hints on diagnosing MOST welcome. :slight_smile:
Expected result:
Brave is NOT AOT. Unless there’s an explicit setting for this (I’ve not found one.)

Brave Version( check About Brave):
All recent versions of Windows desktop Brave, including 1.68.128

Additional Information:
I’ve tried a full reset. Did nothing.
(Is there an attribute I might see in browser Developer Tools???)

THANK YOU!
