== Fix "Show in folder" option ==
Out of the box the option "Show in folder" - position {{Pti|s=1|i=A|c=green}} at {{Media-cite|sf|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.

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

Set­tings

  • If you are us­ing your lo­cal DNS ser­vice as Pi­hole, you may need to dis­able the op­tion Use se­cure DNS with­in brave://settings/.
  • Clear host cache via: brave://net-internals/#dns
