Description of the issue: Magenta rectangle in upper right corner, latest ver installed, used terminal to install, terminal returned Brave already installed with latest ver. Looks like a decoy to install something else.
How can this issue be reproduced?

  1. shows on startup

  2. terry@terry-E6430:~/Desktop$ sudo apt install brave-browser
    brave-browser is already the newest version (1.84.141).

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave):

Additional Information:

It is indeed actually out of date, something is wrong here.

I’d run apt update then apt upgrade brave-browser.

The current desktop version is 1.85.120, not 1.84.141, and if installed via the curl command, apt sounds like it’s database is out of date.

@MasterLink actually…lol
