Window closes when logging into websites

Have been using Brave for a few weeks now. The only annoyance is at least once a day, when I’m logging into websites, the Brave window closes/crashes (whatever you want to call it). Of particular annoyance is this happens with internet banking, community logins, etc.

There seems to be no ‘crash report’, as when I try to login again there is just a small message to “restore the session”. What is causing this ?

Brave 1.80.115 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Chromium: 138.0.7204.97

Hello! Do you have any available crash logs at the time it occurs? They can be found at brave://crashes

Unfortunately, nothing there, see screendump

@jehoshua7 typically if it’s the browser crashing then it should trigger a crash report. If you’re not seeing it, then it can sometimes be a clue that perhaps something else is interfering.

For example

  • Some people have had issues trigger due to internet security programs or extensions.
  • Or a while back when I was using Razer Cortex, it was closing Brave when games launched. I had thought the browser was randomly crashing but eventually tracker it down to the setting in Razer Cortex, where Brave was one of the processes it was deciding to terminate to “boost” my computer’s performance.

Can it replicate? Like every time you go to the website and try that it happens? As I’m reading this it makes it sound like it’s random and not consistent, so just wanting to confirm.

Yes , that is most likey a factor. If there is no crash report/s, then where else can I look ? Kubuntu system, so “dmsg” , system logs ??

I can’t replicate it, no, sorry. It’s not happeneing on one particular site ALL the time, just very random.

@Saoiray - I was able to upload a crash report from today.

This is still happening most days. :frowning:
