Kali Linux Install Brave browser

Lin­ux Desk­top

In­stal­la­tion

Kali Lin­ux is a De­bian based dis­tri­b­u­tion, so we can in­stall the Brave brows­er in the same way as it is de­scribed in the Brave's of­fi­cial doc­u­men­ta­tion. In the fol­low­ing steps we will add the re­lease chan­nel repos­i­to­ry of Brave and then in­stall it,

sudo apt update && sudo apt install apt-transport-https curl

sudo curl -fsSLo /usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg \
https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg

echo "deb [signed-by=/usr/share/keyrings/brave-browser-archive-keyring.gpg arch=amd64] https://brave-browser-apt-release.s3.brave.com/ stable main" | \
sudo tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-release.list

sudo apt update && sudo apt install brave-browser

Fix the "Show in fold­er" op­tion

Out of the box the op­tion "Show in fold­er" – po­si­tion A at Screen 1 – doesn't open the tar­get di­rec­to­ry which is set as de­fault File ex­plor­er. This is­sue is al­so valid for the oth­er Chromi­um and Fire­fox based browsers.

The on­ly work­ing so­lu­tion I've found is that shown be­low. This so­lu­tion solves the is­sue al­so for the oth­er browsers.
