@GeoffJones,
Thanks for reaching out. I have a couple suggestions off the top of my head:

  1. Can you try launching Brave from the terminal with the --disable-brave-sync flag appended at the end of the command? Full command will be /Applications/Brave.app/Contents/MacOS/Brave --disable-brave-sync
  2. If the above has no effect, can you try downloading and installing our Beta build and see if you get the same results?
