KDE Plasma lost bookmarks after update

Brave Browser Desktop Support
,

Hello

I use KDE Plasma as my desk top and brave as my browser. The other day a routine update got me brave

Brave 1.94.121 (Official Build) (x86_64)

Chromium: 152.0.7977.83

It no longer has my bookmarks and my icon doesn’t work.

If I look in my folder tree under snap>brave I have the following folders; current, 678 and 676

Are my bookmarks hidden in there someplace?

I am not a wiz on linux but I hate the new windows so much

Description of the issue:
How can this issue be reproduced?

Expected result:

Brave Version( check About Brave):

  1. First off … for me, I do not use Snap version(s), (or Flatpak(s) ), so your configuration and my configuration are a bit different.

Admittedly, I do use some applications via Flatpak … and I know the user configuration sub-directory is found under “~/.var …”, but not sure if Snaps does the same.

  1. For this, simply open a command line (window) and use the “find” command. See below for my real-world example, showing how I can find the Bookmarks file(s) for my browsers (Chrome and Brave).

Quite simply, open a command line (most prefer a windowed one: Konsole)

The command is: “find . -name Bookmarks -ls”.

That can be enhanced using, “find . -name Bookmarks* -ls”

(the * appended to Bookmarks will show additional).

Be sure you are in the top-level of your user home sub-directory.

Here’s my real-world example I just now executed on my machine:

( now I know where to navigate to, to get the raw Bookmarks files )

cc@machine:~> find . -name Bookmarks -ls
 ./.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser/Default/Bookmarks
 ./.config/BraveSoftware/Brave-Browser-Beta/Default/Bookmarks
