Test plan:

  1. Make sure there are some history and new tab tiles
  2. Choose clear "Browsing History" on close in about:preferences#security
  3. Restart Brave
  4. There shouldn't be any history in about:history and tiles in about:newtab

Describe the issue you encountered:
Setting clear browser data on close doesn't clear history entry after restart

Expected behavior:
Should clear history entries upon restart when clear browser data switch is turned on

  • Platform (Win7, 8, 10? macOS? Linux distro?):
    Windows 10 x64

  • Brave Version (revision SHA):
    Brave 0.13.0
    rev dc4f0fd
    Verified on 0.12.15 works fine. Not checked on previous 0.13.0 builds

  • Steps to reproduce:

    1. Clear browser history
    2. Set Browsing history. Cached images and files, All site cookies under security to clear upon closing Brave
    3. Visit any site to add a history entry in about:history
    4. Close and restart the browser
    5. History entry from step 3 is still shown even though clear browsing data is set to clear upon close
  • Screenshot if needed:
    history
