Description of the issue: How can this issue be reproduced?
yes, I am trying to do that, but when I go to ‘About Brave’ and then click on the version , the update is not installing, instead the page https://brave.com/latest/ is opening.
I searched in settings and online how to enable updates, does such a setting exist?
ok, I have installed this version manually using the instructions.
Now it works when middle clicking a link on a page - it opens in a new tab without the need to stop and refresh.
Strange though from search engine results it still needs the refresh, I tried brave, duckduckgo and presearch . Is my assumption correct that this will be addressed in future fixes? I read about issues when setting specific search engines as default on other topics.
I changed the default search engine to duckduckgo , but the same happens.
Also I saw that stop and refresh is needed when entering an url in the adress bar and hitting enter.
Thank you for the tip; I started the browser with the “–enable-features=NavigationThreadingOptimizations” setting and pasted brave.com and hit enter. The page did not load. Then after deactivating protection from the brave symbol the website loaded. I see that the issues are well known to development so I trust they will be fixed in future updates.
The issues with page not loading from different opening methods seems to be resolved in my installation, although the version is now still 1.39.122 . Thank you to the developers
