@pc-v2 curious - what happens if you try to create another profile or open a guest profile? Knowing this will help judge severity of the issue (hopefully, it's still blocked but just shows in menu)

Definitely seems like we have a bug with those two. Can you confirm that the Private Window with Tor option is hidden? And also Incognito disabled as expected?

yes, tor and incognito is disabled as expected, but guest window and profile manager still able to access even i disable it (BrowserAddPersonEnabled)

Any updates on this issue, guys this is an open gaping hole in disabling privacy mode.

Any updates? this renders the registries completely useless

It is not only a Brave thing. It appears Vivaldi and Ungoogled Chromium struggles with this too.
This is really bad damn it
In my case the "BrowserGuestModeEnabled" works perfectly on both browsers. On the other side "BrowserAddPersonEnabled" is completely useless.
