Every time I try to open Brave nothing happens until I restart my computer, then it works perfectly. I have tried reinstalling. I have tried changing the target location in properties with “–disable-gpu” AND "–profile-directory=“Test Profile”. Opening brave incognito doesn’t work. Brave Beta DOES work, but I don’t want to use Brave Beta because it doesn’t have all of my settings saved from Brave Browser.
Before you load Brave, check in Task Manager if there is a remnant brave.exe process still running. If so, kill it, and check if Brave then loads okay.
The only things in task manager are Brave Update Services. Ending those tasks don’t help.
