This should be resolved now, they changed to .pkg file and they that introduced the help service stuff, that was however fixed at a later point :+1: You can probably try to reinstall BraveBeta from the releases page here on github :wink:

@Tomatoshadow2 can you please try installing Beta manually? You should then be able to upgrade next time a release comes out 😄 I ran into the same thing- I may have accidentally released a bad build. Should be fixed now though 👍
