Intermittent Black Screen

Browser Support Desktop Support

Brave is causing screen to go black for a couple of seconds at a time. Even when just in the background. And only New Tab open.
It had this same problem in 2021, no post anywhere I found about a real solution.

Release Notes v1.75.181 (Feb 26, 2025)

Windows 10 22h2 Build 19045.5487
Nvidia RTX4070Ti
Tried reinstall, disable video acceleration and new account.
Problem is Brave!
The problem started before latest update, about the end of January.
So, Brave benched. Have few other browsers just for such occasions.

Please edit your Original Post (“OP”) above, to include:

  • Operating System version numbers
  • Description of the system video device (Nvidia etc., for example - assuming that you are using Windows OS)

I suggest that you consult the test procedures at:

Sections of browser freezing while using - #2 by 289wk

And if none of that testing solves your issue, then restart your computer and re-install Brave Browser.

And restart your computer again.
