Description of the issue:

  1. At least three times a week I am asked to clear browser for unused sites. Which I do. Very annoying.
  2. At least three times a week I am asked to update Brave which I do. But is does stick. So I eventually ignore
  3. I will attach screen shots of my issues if there is a place to do that?

Hello - Would you mind providing a screenshot of your experience?

A couple places to check your browsing history configuration.

  • Forget me when I close this site may be toggled on**.** You can check under the Shields icon for each site.
  • • The Clear Memory On Exit option may be enabled under Clear Browsing Data (brave://settings/clearBrowserData)

Regular updates are required to ensure the browser remains free of bugs and security concerns.

I see you say rehgylar updates are required but rea;;y two maybe three times a week.

@Gayle67 Brave does not require updates that frequently. We typically update the browser once every couple of weeks or so, maybe twice if there is a security fix or Chromium update that we need to push.

Regardless, the update icon there is red, meaning that you’ve missed more than one browser update. I would highly recommend you update to the latest build of the browser now. It may even resolve the issue with the Free up space to continue notification you’re seeing.

Thank you for getting back to me.

Please let me know if updating the browser to the latest version resolves the issue for you.

It has for now. But if I get another update this week will let you know.

Thanks again.
