Why there is no Ctrl+Q shortcut to close ‘all’ Brave openned windows (like other browser) ?
I often open more than 1 instance, with many tabs in each, and I need to go to the menu, then clic Quit to do that.
Solidus says
There needs to be a shortcut for opening tabs in the same category
or even better, have it be the default and use a separate shortcut for “opening a new tab without a category”

Has anyone addressed this? I cannot get a menu bar to show up either. It’s surprising and vexing, since a menu bar allows you to avoid reaching for the mouse and reaching for the mouse is a time-waster compared to navagating with the keyboard.

Most of these do nothing on my win7 platform. The only one i’m really interested in is the menu bar… i cannot get a fucking menu bar in my brave browser WTF???????????????????????
