Description of the issue: How can this issue be reproduced? When I turned on my MacBook, Brave Browser would always “auto start.” Even after I turned it off using “Login Items” from “User and Group,” it remained and continues to turn on after that. Furthermore, I tried installing “CleanMyMac” an…

@Aircon If you have Brave Browser set to be the default Internet browser . . . choose some other Internet browser (Safari will do, for now). – Some Extensions may cause a problem, and you may need to: Disable all Extensions Remove all Extensions Test Enable each Extension, alone, one-at-a-time …

That option is not available in macOS versions of Brave, at least not mine. I have the same issue as @Aircon and I have my own thread (and 4+ other people do too) with no fixes to this issue. [image] Brave Keeps Adding Itself To Login Items [Mac] Browser Support This issue…

[image] Slimothy: That option is not available in macOS versions of Brave, at least not mine. Well, darn. This is the bad part about not having the OS as someone else who is having issues. I’ve no idea on MacOS or Linux but try where I can. Usually they keep things almost identical on Desktop…

Hi Have you tried the steps @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=szYIiOZizCg

This is what I have to do every single time I turn my Mac off and back on. Brave keeps auto-adding itself to that Login Items place I would love if a Dev would chime in and let me know if there’s a flag I could turn off. I doubt it but worth a shot. I know for a fact any developer using macOS has e…

Hi It is safe to reset flags, supposing you haven’t enabled/disabled features before.
