@streamwithmyfriends,
Did you have Sync enabled via brave://flags when you updated?

[streamwithmyfriends]

I enabled sync two days ago, and only just started the crashing issue today.

@streamwithmyfriends,
Can you disable Sync please and then see if the crashes stop?

[streamwithmyfriends]

I disabled sync (and Sync setup friendly settings), and my crashing stopped. That’s weird.

@streamwithmyfriends,
I figured that would be the case. Don’t worry – the next browser update will push Sync v2 into Brave stable, so you’ll be able to use a fully functioning, highly improved Sync very soon.
