Brave won't launch after upgrading to tates version (windws 11)

Brave just won’t launch on windows 11 after I upgraded to the latest browser version (which had to be done by downloading the latest version and installing it as I got the message upgrading the previus version was not possible) . Absolutely nothing happens when I click the icon in the taskbar or the shortcut on my desktop or try opening Brave via the start menu. What needs to be done here?
