Hi all.
I am new to Linux and decided to test Zorin OS 18 as a possible replacement for Windows 11.
I love tinkering and learning new stuff, but I am stuck with an issue that could be a potential deal-breaker.
In Brave, when writing a new email in Gmail, I tried to drag and drop some files as attachment to an email. They are renamed automatically to some generic/random names. I tried adding them through attachment button instead of using drag and drop, but same thing happens.
Based on a search, I removed brave completely by running the following commands;
sudo apt purge brave-browser brave-keyring
sudo apt autoremove
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/brave-browser-.list
rm -rf ~/.config/BraveSoftware
rm -rf ~/.cache/BraveSoftware
rm -rf ~/.local/share/keyrings/brave-browser
I then installed brave from the software center as a flathub package, but the issue remains. With fresh install drag and drop does not work at all. Error message is that "file is 0 bytes". Only option to add files is through the attachment button in the email.
I tested Chrome browser as well, and it has the exact same issue, so my best guess is permissions (?), but I don't have the knowledge on what to try next.
Appreciate if someone has some advice on what to do.
