Description of the issue: After allowing the install of widevine plugin, it has completely ruined my browser. No graphics will load and I cannot clear cache because of this, I cannot disable the plugin because of this either. I’ve uninstalled Brave and completely removed it’s files from my system. …

[image] Jorogumo4: ended up just reimaging Could you explain that a bit more? Curious what you did so if others have issue. I know some had experienced something similar and they just deleted GPUCache and it resolved. Trying to see if you basically did the same thing or something a bit differ…

I ended up just reimaging, so going to consider this “resolved”

Full partition wipe and reinstalled Manjaro entirely.

@Saoiray deleting the GPUCache folder have worked for me! I was with the same problem.
