Turn Off External App Confirmation (Brave Wants to Open) Dialogue

Brave is a great browser, but it’s odd how some simple things like having a confirmation window ask every time it tries to open an external app haven’t been addressed.

Every time I click a link that requires an external app to open, Brave asks me to confirm if I want to open that app. The browser either needs a “remember my choice” checkbox so that it won’t stop asking you EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. or it needs a way to completely turn off that option.

PLEASE IMPLEMENT THIS ASAP!!

I have tried to use the workaround solution in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\BraveSoftware\Brave]
“ExternalProtocolDialogShowAlwaysOpenCheckbox”=dword:1

However, there is NO directory for BraveSoftware there.
