Brave Browser

Description of the issue: I watch YouTube from the Brave Browser as opposed to using the app. Today, I get an error message : "An error has occurred. Please try again later … ". I did not have this yesterday … watched the SpaceX launch … today I wanted to watch F1 and got this issue.

I have followed their instructions in “Learn More” - nothing doing.

I followed all the proposed fixes. Reset, reboot, caché clear, and additionally, CCleaner, Malwarebytes and anti virus (Panda). The issue persists.

The error occurs on most pages, but then will not on others… even from the same channel.

I change to my back-up browser - Vivaldi to watch YouTube and I do not have this issue at all.

YouTube off the Brave browser has no ads at all and this is awesome as I hate ads with a visceral passion.

**Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. 2. 3.

I do not know what else to do other than what has been suggested by YouTube.**

Actual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):

Expected result: Just normal usage without the error message

Reproduces how often:

**Operating System and Brave Version(See the About Brave page in the main menu):

OS - Windows 11 - updated to latest patch
Brave version - latest patch 1.90.124**

I’m having the same issue with Brave on iPadOS. At first, I was toggling my ExpressVPN off to resolve but that didn’t consistently work. Standard vs. Aggressive shields also helped with some, but then ads can happen.

I have the same problem. It does this since the last brave update.
