@dblanch256 do you have more information? I am having trouble understanding your description. Is this something that brave.com is claiming? Or is this something in product? As-is, there is not enough information here to understand what the problem is or where it is. Please reply back with some additional info. Thanks! |

Yes, Brave is claiming it. Here's a snippet from the Brave Settings Page:

@dblanch256 for some reason, the picture didn't seem to attach? Can you try again? Is this on the desktop browser? or android? or iOS? |
|
It was not attached--it was embedded. Hoping you don't have display images
turned off.
Just in case, I'll attach it this time.

BTW, this is an i7 desktop (Windows 10). Been running Brave for about a
year now.
Generally, very happy with it.

Pictures still not showing; if you're replying via email, I'm not sure if GitHub handles that properly (versus being logged into the website) Once you get to brave://settings, how do you see the link you're mentioning? (what section of settings are you clicking on?) cc: @fmarier |

Not sure why you can't see images--never had that problem before.
Anyway, the short message is at the top the Brave/Settings page (right
under the heading tabs)
which reads: "Your browser is managed by your organization."
When I click on that link, I get a page containing only this text:
"Your administrator can change your browser setup remotely. Activity on
this device may also be managed outside of Chrome. Learn More
<https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1331549>"
The "Learn More" link sends me to here:
https://support.google.com/chromebook/answer/1331549
But I don't own a Chromebook. I'm using a desktop PC.
Hope this helps.

@bsclifton I think we should show our custom page or replace link with https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/9281740 |

Maybe. It's confusing because I'm the "Manager" (or at least the
administrator) of these machines. So I don't know the root cause of these
messages. I hope I'm not "doing this to myself" only because I have the
wrong value for some setting.

If I am not mistaken this was fixed with #6475, which redirects to our support page. |

I just checked my Brave version. It seems to think it's up to date:
"Brave is up to date
Version 1.0.1 Chromium: 78.0.3904.108 (Official Build) (64-bit)
<https://brave.com/latest/>"

@dblanch256 this landed in master, which means it will be released in version 1.3. Currently it's in Nightly version |

Thanks for investigating this! Be well, citizen!
