Setting Brave as default from the startup check on Linux doesn't work #4939
Comments
@Sh1d0w which electron version do you have? |
@Sh1d0w you should upgrade it to at least 1.4.15+ which will contain brave/muon@016f564 |
@darkdh Sorry. |
if your node_modules already exists and contains a ref to 1.4.14 I think it just re-installs that same version, I find just clearing node_modules before npm install works better. You can also use npm update electron-prebuilt and it might work. |
@bbondy Yes I learned that the hard way :D thanks |

brave.desktop
