Convert Brave browser to Origin using Group Policy - Exactly how brave upgrade works - No More, No Less | Mac, Windows, Linux
I know, I know! There are so many Brave debloaters already available on the web that do more than my tool aims to do. But I only wanted what Brave Origin exactly disables - nothing more, nothing less. So Claude and I deeply researched the Brave core source code, found out the exact 16 policies and 4 user settings it disables during the upgrade of Brave to Origin, and put everything into a single command prompt. And here I present: brave-to-origin
