Thank you for your help. Seems to be working fine now.

Well, that didn’t last long. Now the tabs that are open refresh fine but unable to open new tabs or get links in current tabs to open. Even the “settings” in Brave do not open! What is going on?

Entered " brave://settings/clearBrowserData" in new tab and it opened. Cleared the browser data and also clicked on the send reports for helping diagnose problems. Had to restart Brave and now there is nothing. Back to the “Aw, Snap” for all tabs.

All tabs open with "untitled" and "Aw, Snap!"
