Additional Information:

Did it happens only for “Device recognition”, @Johann ? How about other shield settings? Did you change the global shield settings or per-site shield settings (via Brave icon at URL bar)?

It happens only for ‘Device recognition’. I have change the global shield settings.
I don’t use per-site shield settings.

@Johann,
Have you cleared your browsing data and/or do you have any data to be cleared on exit (Settings --> History --> Clear Browsing Data --> [On Exit])?

On Exit i clear all data.

@Johann,
I believe that’s the problem then – we have an open issue right now wherein Shields settings are wiped/reset alongside browsing data. We’re working to decouple these data so that it can be wiped without effecting Shields settings:
