@PororoManon thanks for writing in, Origin is currently only available in Nightly, which is I believe what’s leading to your issue, here’s the current list of version availability [https://versions.brave.com/](https://versions.brave.com/).

Have you tested with Origin Nightly?

Thank you

Ah I see, @PororoManon you’re just pointing out that the window/app is titled `brave-browser-beta` rather than `Brave Origin` – is that correct?

Actually I’m not entirely clear on what’s happening here. Can you please tell me:

1. What the issue you’re describing here is _exactly_?
2. What you are expecting the behavior to be?
3. Where you downloaded Brave Origin from?

It’s not exactly like that. Brave Origin opens a new app (`brave-browser-beta)` instead of the shortcut (Brave Origin (beta)). I attach a video, hope it can help [https://files.catbox.moe/8yf7wk.mp4](https://files.catbox.moe/8yf7wk.mp4)

I use brave beta, its show brave origin on my `About Brave` on settings.

I’m going to try Origin Nightly to see if I run into the same issue.

update: its fixed on nightly version 😃
