@adennial,
Thank you for reaching out to us.
This sounds like an issue that was actually just resolved over this weekend. I’m wondering if you’re somehow still fetching an older release that still has the bug. Can you please uninstall and clear any Brave data from your machine, then download and run the BraveBrowserSetup.exe file from our Github here and install this way?
I’ve done as you have recommended, uninstall any previous versions and download the browser setup from Github but I’m still running over the same issue. Should I wait still for any newer updates that may come out to see if the outcome changes or is there anything I can check myself to change for this to be fixed?
@adennial,
One more thing to try, can you please (once again) uninstall and clear any data related to Brave from your machine, then try downloading the BraveBrowserStandaloneSetup.exe file from that same Github link above and test to see if this makes any difference?
