I assume Brave was made this way intentionally, but that bypassing any content controls was an unplanned byproduct. Also just in case, remember to clear the web cache and history from the settings. “Admin password required to install this program or make changes to this computer.”Įvery time. Probably a long shot, but if you launch a game on steam then press shift+tab to access the overlay, you can use the steam browser and it will not block it or monitor it. A second popup message states that Brave can install without Admin permission.Īctual Result (gifs and screenshots are welcome!):.A popup does ask for ~“Administrator permission to install this program” but it hit cancel or X out the window.login to windows under a “standard user,” non-Administrator account (Windows10 in my case) Steps to Reproduce (add as many as necessary): 1. Perhaps there exists software which can either prevent the “Tor” private window within Brave or prevent the installation of windows programs (like most apps require admin approval)? This wouldn’t be a problem, but because “Brave” browser can install without permission from an Admin account on Windows 10, anyone with the install file can have full unfiltered internet (porn) access, and I don’t know of any way to remedy that. Both of these blocked porn sites automatically in the regular window, but had zero presence or affect in Private “Tor” windows. Currently we use “Mobicip” Parental Control software, I also tried “Qustodio”. I am hoping I am not the only one in this situation. Web filtering is never perfect, but at least I hope to bar the worst&violent explicit content. MORE INFO: I aim to have internet access but don’t want porn or adult content in my family’s home. I am hoping there might be some way to block or control installation/use of Brave browser in Windows10. SUMMARY: Brave Browser in private (Tor) mode has become a gaping hole in our family’s attempts to web-filter out adult content.
