Description of the issue: I have a NAS drive connected to my router, which acts as a Local server to store and access files, but also allows me to run Plex. Before I launch Brave I can access my drive without issue, but as soon as I launch Brave it blocks access until I restart Windows (10). I’m guessing that Brave is blocking access to the Localhost, and I’m all for increased security, how would I allow access to my localhost without disabling the added security.
I also use NordVPN and Avast, but everything has worked fine before I moved over to Brave after dropping Chrome.
How can this issue be reproduced?
- Don’t Launch Brave, can access local network
- Launch Brave local network is blocked until reset.
Expected result: Allow access to local network when Brave is running
Brave Version( check About Brave): Version 1.76.74 Chromium: 134.0.6998.89 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Additional Information: Windows 10 / NordVPN / Avast (all up-to-date)
