Brave Browser not cleaning

Asked by ukylqelusllovqjeki@tcwlm.com

Hi, I had a problem with Brave Browser not being cleaned.

It turns out because the browser was installed via a "FlatPak" as a result BleachBit was unable to see or find the files needed to be cleaned.

I have removed my version of the Brave Browser that was installed via flatpak and re installed it in the usual way.

I have found that Bleachbit is now able to find and clean the files as desired, Thank you.

I can add support for Brave on Flatpak, and it would help if you could find me the path. With the Flatpak version installed and running, run this command, and let me know which paths it finds

find ~/.var/app -name History

If that does not work, this should find it

find ~ -name History | grep -i brave

To not lose track of the problem, it's best to report the issue here https://github.com/bleachbit/bleachbit/issues/new

Can you help with this problem?
