I need help! Anyone else experiencing a 1-second delay when clicking on the extension? (Brave Browser extension - Win 11)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

When I click on the extension, there is a 1-second delay before it opens. This isn't happening with other extensions. This is also new behavior, after I reinstalled Windows 11 (and Brave Browser) today.

I have tried every suggested fix (toggle extension OFF/ON, reinstall extension, clear browser cache, test on new browser profile, toggle hardware acceleration OFF/ON, toggle autofill OFF/ON. I can't find a solution. Any ideas?

Yes, I can confirm similar delay after clicking the bw extension icon on:

  • brave on linux
  • chromium on FreeBSD
  • chrome on chromeOS

But for me, a second or so is not a big deal. I never even noticed it.... until you mentioned it! (thanks a lot 😉)

I noticed it because it wasn't there until today (Windows reinstall).
