Brave Beta
Description:
I’ve been hit again by the exact same issue I previously posted about:
Original issue thread
After every reboot or full browser restart, I’m logged out of nearly all sites — including Gmail, ChatGPT, and others — despite not having any settings enabled that should cause this. Cookies do appear to be stored temporarily, but are clearly wiped when restarting.
Details
- Brave Version:
Brave Beta 1.80.105 (Official Build) beta (64-bit) - Chromium version:
137.0.7151.104 - OS: Arch Linux (fully up to date)
- Shields: OFF globally for affected sites (Gmail, ChatGPT, etc.)
- Extensions: None that interfere with cookies (no CookieAutoDelete, ClearURLs, etc.)
- Startup Setting:
Continue where you left off - Clear-on-exit Settings: All options are unchecked
- Profile Type: Regular (not guest/private)
- Sync: Enabled — same issue occurs across all synced devices
- Tried New Profile: Yes — same issue occurs
- Aggressive Shield/Fingerprint blocking: No
Screenshots
On Startup setting:
Clear on Exit (everything unchecked):
Site Storage Still Exists Before Restart (example):
Summary
This is identical to the bug I reported earlier — all settings are configured correctly, and cookie/session persistence should be working. Nothing in my settings or extensions would cause this behavior.
Would really appreciate any help or escalation. This makes Brave Beta unusable for daily browsing since I must log in again on every start.
