- weeloshwhaleJan 21, 2022Copper ContributorNothing has worked for me. Frustrating is an understatement! I got rid of all extensions, then installed AdBlock and 1Password and still got the crash with both Brave and Edge. Also happens even if I turn the extensions off.
I’ve lost so much work because of this and I’m actually about to factory reset my computer to revert to Windows 10. There doesn’t seem to be a solution on forums and the Windows 11 support team referred me to here because they didn’t know what to do.
