**Description of the issue:**today brave randomly stopped opening on my mac. i tried restarting my computer and deleting and redownloading brave from the web but it still would not open.
Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.
just try opening the application on your mac
Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):
it shows an opening animation but the application does not open.
it does not show on the doc as running so i am sure it is not opening at all
Expected result:
Reproduces how often:
every time i try to open it
Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):
Additional Information:
when i switch mac user , it works fine on the other accounts but it wont open on mine.
i looked through some old posts on here and found a link for an old version of brave which i downloaded and and updated and that seemed to fix the issue. but the problem originally arose in the middle of the day after i used the browser for a while. i am able to use it again but i am not sure if the problem will repeat
I had the same issue on windows, where browser wouldn’t open.
One way I found that worked was I made PDFs open in Brave browser, and somehow it magically opens Brave.
