Hello, I have a small problem, it turns out that I updated brave to the V1.37 to put my own background image when I found out that you could already put custom background images in Brave, but the background image option does not appear in the dashboard nor does it disable sponsored images.
@PikachuandEevee2000,
Can you please tell me the exact version of the browser you’re using? Additionally, its unlikely that this is the case but can you please create a test profile and check to see if you get the same results there?
@PikachuandEevee2000,
Additionally, can you please try opening the dev tools console (Menu --> more tools --> dev tools --> [Console]), then click on Customize again (on the NTP) and share a screenshot of the console window?
I suggest you do a clean install of Brave.
You will need to use an app such as Revo Uninstaller, free version, to completely uninstall Brave then install the official version from https://brave.com/
Note: Reinstalling Brave will lead to the loss of your estimated earnings.
@PikachuandEevee2000 additionally, can you tell me if you installed Brave using any special promotion or if it was the standard install from brave.com/download?
I see - can you please disable this theme and then tell me if the option appears? Or simply select Brave default images in Settings --> Appearance —> Theme
Note while this may work, it will likely clear all data held in the browser. Can you please try and get the console screenshot requested previously before resorting to this?
I also notice that you still have that background enabled. I want to ensure that you tested removing the theme by going to Settings --> Appearance --> Theme --> Brave default images then relaunching the browser and checking.
