Brave browser and terminal after reboot

ok so im running the latest slowroll and i have the disk encrypted. well i booted into kali on a live iso from a usb drive and when i was in kali i connected online and ran a few commands trying to unlock my old ipod touch cause i cant remember the pin to get the hash atleast. anyway thats not important but thats all i did i never mounted any other disks on the system nothing then i rebooted now every time i run brave i get this error and when i kill the pid it still says the same thing.

user@kali:~> /usr/bin/brave-browser-stable
[3057:3057:0901/161329.312701:ERROR:process_singleton_posix.cc(353)] The profile appears to be in use by another Brave process (2491) on another computer (localhost.localdomain). Brave has locked the profile so that it doesn't get corrupted. If you are sure no other processes are using this profile, you can unlock the profile and relaunch Brave.

Nice, I got pinged LOL

But yeah you need to delete singleton.lock if your Brave Browser is locking up. I’ve grown tired of it and switched to LibreWolf. Just make sure you close Brave browser before logging out or shutting down or else it will lock up again.

thanks that fixed it xD hopefully i remember next time but i doubt it lol. and so why did my host name change and how i never touched my main OS?
