I have transferred my information from regular chrome to brave, and the extension to boomerang is installed, but not popping up and installed. I can’t use gmail with this, meaning I won’t even be able to use brave.
Please edit your Original Post (“OP”) above, in order to include:
- Brave Browser version numbers
- Operating System version numbers
In a Brave Browser New Window, go to: https://www.google.com/. Click on the tune icon that is adjacent to the left end of the Brave Browser window’s URL address field:
![]()
In the resulting pop-down window, find and click on the Site settings button:
![]()
In the resulting Brave Browser Settings window at:
brave://settings/content/siteDetails?site=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com
scroll down and Allow Javascript:
Also Allow JavaScript for:

Tips regarding Brave Shields:
I have more success, with:
- Brave Shields UP, but . . .
- Either Allow All Cookies or Block 3rd Party Cookies, but NOT Blocking All Cookies
- Allowing JavaScripts from specific sources, but NOT Allowing All JavaScripts
- Trackers & Ads treatment: Aggressive (at first), and then incrementally relaxing that setting
- Fingerprinting (aka footprinting) blocking: Strict (at first), and then incrementally relaxing that setting
I almost NEVER use:
- All of Brave Shields UP
- All of Brave Shields DOWN
Shields Basics
How do I configure global and site-specific Shields settings?
How do I use Shields while browsing?
If still having trouble, disable and un-install the Boomerang extension.
At brave://settings/clearBrowserData use the Advanced tab and Time range: All time. Then clear cache, cookies, history.
Exit / Quit everything and restart your computer. Then install Boomerang and try again.
