I go to Control Panel>Apps&Features and I click on Uninstall like any other app. This is the message I receive:

I looked on your message board and am highly disappointed. All the threads that deal with this issue are closed. However, none provide a solution to this issue. One thing I did notice is that the folder number is different on the error message than the folder numbers in the Brave Application folder. I have two folders in the Brave Application folder: 75.0.66.101 and 76.0.67.124. The error message shows 76.0.67.123.

Someone please provide all of us a permanent solution to uninstalling your software. How in the world can you not fix this when this has been an issue for so long?

Oh yeah, I checked the version of Brave and always receive this message and every time I hit relaunch, it relaunches with the same message, same version numbers.

Nearly up to date! Relaunch Brave to finish updating.
Version 0.66.101 Chromium: 75.0.3770.142 (Official Build) (64-bit)

It’s seems because your Brave is failed to update to latest version. 0.66.101 is a bit outdated.

Can you try:

  • Download the installer from brave.com/download or if you still have a copy on your device,
  • Then run the installer. Make sure you close all Brave processes.
  • No need to uninstall . Just run the installer. It’ll try to fetch the latest version.

After that, you can try to uninstall again.
Let me know if it’s still not working.
Thanks
