@U4P Is it caused by some extension? And your using window right?

@SaltyPear86,
First step would be to figure out what policies are enabled. Can you please share what you see when you go to your brave://policy?

I checked mine and it says no policies set

@SaltyPear86,
Are you also encountering this issue?

I’m not encountering this issue, I believe @U4P is experiencing this issue

LOL, then why did you respond? He was talking to the OP. SMH

Welcome to the digital prison.

I have a good video to show everyone what awaits us.

This has been going on for a while, but now it’s getting worse.

They control EVERYTHING, not just your browsers.

@OurFreeSociety I have no idea what you’re talking about but if you’re not encountering this issue that OP brought or have suggestions for OP, up please stop replying here.

Thank you

I would do the following:

1) In the Windows Registry Editor, check “Computer\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\BraveSoftware\Brave” for a file/folder termed “ExtensionAllowList” and delete it.

2) Restart Windows and see if it appears in the Windows registry again.

If it doesn’t appear in the Windows registry now then:

1) Go to brave://policy then ensure it is not showing here either

2) Now, let’s ensure Brave allows you to enable Secure DNS

Let’s go re-check RegEdit for same info:

1) Go to Windows Group Policy Editor by searching for “Edit Group Policy”

2) See if there’s a Brave section with the following path:

Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Brave

3) If there is, find the “Configure extension installation allow list” Group Policy setting under [Brave > Extensions] and set it to “Not Configured”. Should resolve this.
If the issue persists, then you’d have to find the source of the registry edit addition and remove it

I hope this helps!
