New Mac; All Brave Browser actions now using Safari...?

It's some kind of undocumented interaction between Keyboard Maestro and Brave (or something else), or just a bug in KM. It happened to me, too.

Macro to Replace Chrome Actions with Front Browser Actions?

I'm no good at writing macros that affect Keyboard Maestro itself, so before I embark on replacing hundreds of actions by hand, I thought I'd ask: Does anyone have a macro to replace Chrome-centric actions with actions that work with other (not Safari) browsers? Now that Google has come out of the closet as overtly evil, I'm trying to reduce my reliance on Google (Search, Chrome, etc.) and trying out Chromium-based browsers with privacy and security, like Brave, Vivaldi, and so on.

I Broke All Safari Actions and Need Help

While trying to solve a related issue I broke all the Safari actions in KM. KM can't control or do anything with Safari any more. Can someone please help me restore them? I'm not sure what command to use in Terminal or somewhere else I might need to change a KM setting. In troubleshooting another issue I issued the following Terminal commands one at a time (with an Enter between) defaults write com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine AppleScriptSafariBundleID -string "com.apple.SafariTechnologyPr…

What worked for me was the following:

1. I deleted all the browser preferences in KM per Peter Lewis's post:

defaults delete com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine AppleScriptSafariBundleID
defaults delete com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine BrowserSafariName
defaults delete com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine AppleScriptSafariName
defaults delete com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine AppleScriptGoogleChromeBundleID
defaults delete com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine BrowserGoogleChromeName
defaults delete com.stairways.keyboardmaestro.engine AppleScriptGoogleChromeName

2. Then I ignored the accepted way to do it.
3. I Created a macro called Primary Browser, set it to Activate Brave Browser.
4. In macros, I first call that Activate Brave Browser macro.
5. Then, the macros send all their commands to the Front Browser or directly to Brave, all manually changed from Default Application or Chrome-specific actions.

I've tried the approved way, replacing Chrome in preferences with Brave, a couple of times; it always ends in either or both KM ignoring the directive and sending to Chrome or Safari, or all browser commands failing.
