Local IPFS node won't start

Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. Load: “brave://ipfs-internals/”
  2. Hit “Start” button
  3. Gives “An error occurred, please try to launch again” message

Expected result:
IPFS node start

Brave Version( check About Brave):
V1.35.101

Additional Information:

Do you have the IPFS client running with the browser? Do disable it for experiment.
Also, if you have IFPS companion extension, also disable it for experiment.

To solve the problem, you may use IPFS local node directly from settings brave://settings/ipfs rather than from brave://ipfs-internals/

I have no other IPFS applications running and have disabled the IPFS companion extension as well. The IPFS page in brave settings is all defaults as well except the option to use IPFs companion.

It might be a bug then. Official Brave team or some other users might be able to help.
