Broswer getting stuck

Its the latest version and the browser gets stuck (Not Responding) while opening it and while switching between the tabs.

No, the PC doesn’t seem to have an issue; it’s a system i7 8th Gen, 16GB RAM, and NVIDIA MX150 GPU. Moreover, the browser is not consuming much of resources anyways.

## Description Few hours ago Brave just released new update on release channel. Got the notification on Help-About menu, so I relaunch to proceed with the update. After that I'm not able to use the browser anymore. Every time I open the browser, it just freezes there with URL bar and blank page. I can't click anything and Windows 10 Task Manager shows high CPU usage from Brave Browser. The browser was working just fine before the update. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling (without deleting my browsing data), tried using the --disable-brave-sync and --disable-extensions flag, but it doesn’t solve the problem. I know deleting my user data will probably fix this, but I don't want to lose my extension, history, etc. I'm running Windows 10 Home 64-bit 1809 (Build 17763.1098) Link to other user with similar problem: https://community.brave.com/t/newly-updated-brave-1-7-98-chromium-81-0-4044-113-unresponsive-for-3-min-after-launch/120351 ## Brave version (brave://version info) I can't open brave://version since the browser is basically unusable and doesn't respond to any input, but I believe the latest release channel is v1.7.98 ## Other Additional Information: - Does the issue resolve itself when disabling Brave Shields? I can't test it because the browser freezes and doesn't respond to any input. - Does the issue resolve itself when disabling Brave Rewards? I can't test it because the browser freezes and doesn't respond to any input. - Is the issue reproducible on the latest version of Chrome? No
