Workaround for Windows 7 Blank screen:
-
Find the shortcut for Brave (generally on Desktop), right-click and select Properties
from the context menu.
-
Click into the “Target” field, and type --disable-gpu
at the end of the path. Note that you must type this outside of the quotes with a space between the flag and quotes .
-
Click Apply
then OK
then open the modified shortcut you just created.
-
Assuming this worked and you’re able to view Brave, open the main menu on the top-right
-
Navigate to Settings --> Advanced --> System --> Hardware Acceleration
DISABLE HARDWARE ACCELERATION.
Restart browser. It will work.
Now again go to the shortcut and Remove “–disable-gpu”.
now it works. smooth.
