I watched Youtube on Win10/Brave last night (well, early this morning, technically) - Slow and laggy but I was blaming the computer I was on, but they would finally load. Ended up shutting down the computer for a full re-boot.

Once in awhile, when my PC has been up for long time (I rarely reboot), Brave will stop loading a site (although it never has a problem loading FR!).

It's at that time I reboot, and then all is well. I have no idea why this is (deleting cache didn't work - I do that a lot)...

Close out all your windows.

Then open 1 window only on a not website page.

Go to your menu at the top, left click “Brave” and go to “Settings”

On the bottom left click “reset settings”.

On the right side left click “Restore Settings To Original Defaults”

[Enlightened1]

You can also go to “Settings”, and click on “Privacy and Security”.

On the top right side left click, “Delete Browsing Data”

A Brave update might have screwed it up

Same thing happens here running Opera. It drags and drags then we get the page with the moon lander on it. And the message “Can’t Connect To The Internet” when everything works just fine on Microsoft Edge. Would like to get rid of Opera and Google but all our passwords and account information for bill paying are on it. A restart usually fixes it but Opera is a very weak link and you have to wonder why unless it is oversubscribed because of the influx of millions of illegal alien users. They are overwhelming all systems and programs.

You need to upgrade to Windows 7

Maybe just pour some Dr. Pepper on the keyboard?

Or buy a Mac, see if that helps.

Exactly the same problem through Spectrum here. Would not show any video but would show the shell screen.

My last microsoft update was about a week ago. Any correlation there??

[SunkenCiv]

No problem here. I’m using up-to-date Brave on my poor old 2013 laptop. ;^) This is not on the wireless signal, it’s an ethernet cable (Walmart I think) over a USB-to-ethernet (the original built-in jack fell apart years ago).

Update for me. YouTube works on Microsoft browser but not Chrome.

The last time my computer was updated I had ghost circles on the right side of my screen. My mouse had been almost 100% taken over. I along with many others had the same experience happen to them. After taking notes to go into my settings it boiled down to ********* this update gave microsoft the power to turn off my device to save power anytime they(?) felt necessary.

To try and short my point. You might need to go into devise manager. And in the General Drive Details Events...Power manager...click...you will see a blue box that says. ALLOW THE COMPUTER TO TURN OFF THIS DEVISE TO SAVE POWER . MAKE SURE IT IS UNCHECKED.

If they are able to have power control why not where ONE chooses their sites they use?

This might not be your answer but perhaps in the future. Take care.

Brave Browser has components that are routinely updated. Occasionally, a component update causes some kind of trouble.

Search for “Brave Browser component update trouble”.

Try turning shields off. Then report it as a broken site. This happens to me with ESPN every month or two, but gets fixed pretty quickly.

[Mr. Jeeves]

Sounds like Microsoft is combatting misinformation by forcing you to use its own browser. /s

[mass55th]

Did you try clearing all YouTube cookies, then signing back into your account?

[SuperLuminal]

Brave fast and responsive, as usual, last night, this morning, and now...

[dljordan]

Works for me.
