Even though i have installed Brave browser from official depo, but the Brave browser icon never shows in the program launcher.
There is only “run brave” (not the right icon) available when do a search of program.
However when i click the “run brave” icon, the actual “new tab-brave” icon shows up in the launcher menu.
When i closed the brave browser, the actual brave icon disapear again, left with the “run brave” (not the right icon) there again.
Are you using a third-party icon pack (just to rule that out, in case the icon theme doesn’t inherit/import any of the more common themes for missing icons.)
Which launcher in KDE are you using?
I’m sure you already tried this, but it’s worth asking, did you try re-installing Brave?
Can you post a screenshot of this if possible? You’re saying that the proper icon appears in the “launcher menu” immediately after you click it? or do you mean it appears on the task manager at the bottom panel?
Hm… i just powered on laptop and about to do screenshot… then i saw the brave icon appeared in the launcher menu … it is fixed by itself… maybe restart laptop is the key ?? hee like windows os… need some restart … lol…
Anyway… thanks.
Just restart the laptop and the Brave icon is there already. kind of like windoze… need to restart each time install a new software … almost
How to attach photo from imgur ? this forum just said “can’t embed media…” I paste the url of the image in “Add an image > from the web”… but it just does not allow me to do that.
Anyway, just post it as text, and it said i can’t post link here…
Anway, this image is on i.imgur.c?m, i guess you know how to arrange it to form a valid url.

You need to have a higher trust level for that. You are a new user, so you’re still at TL0 at the moment. Your TL status will climb as you become more active on the forum.
The irony, now I am facing the OP’s issue (missing icons in my launcher menu), not just for Brave, but for many applications. This started after I applied the Stable updates and rebooted my computer.
