Can’t install any extension from the web store
Hi there, I just installed Brave and I’m trying to install some extensions from the Chrome web store but they all fail. The download starts but it immediately fails, it says forbidden and then I get access denied from the web store.
I tried disabling the shield, allowing all cookies, clearing cache but nothing happened. I’d love to know how I can fix this.
Thanks.
Version 1.26.67
