Can you update to the latest Brave? and retest

I thought I was already using the latest. The icon just got green and I restarted (before I posted this message here)… It seems like it’s another bug: it can’t update automatically. I’m doing it manually now, I’ll retest asap

@lucasrato , Do you have any extensions installed in the browser at this time? Additionally, are you connected to a VPN by chance? Does your anti-virus software monitor/block network traffic at all?
