Reset settings in browser

Also I am curious what us meant by fully clearing data. I have removed cache and config folders for brave trying to achieve this.

That’s essentially what I’m speaking of. To clarify, I’ll quote instructions below that were given to someone on Windows. I’m not familiar with Linux but I’m sure you may be given context clues here if nothing else. But main idea is often your user data, extension files, etc can tension even after uninstalling. So have to make sure those are cleared out.

If you still want to use the stable build, I would recommend an uninstall and ensure that you wipe all the browsing data from your system before reinstalling. In Windows, when you go to Apps & Features and go to uninstall Brave, there should be a prompt that appears asking if you want to also delete all associated browsing data. Make sure you say yes to this prompt and then proceed with the uninstalling process.

Once done, to ensure that the data is gone, go to

C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Local

You should see a Brave Software folder here, click into it. Since you have Beta installed, you should see a Brave-Browser-Beta folder here. If you see one labeled only Brave-Browser, delete this folder. You’ve now cleared it from your system entirely.
