How can I get the Kaspersky Protection extension to work in Brave browser?

I use Kaspersky Plus. I know Brave isn't supported by the extension, but I'm looking for a workaround. I tried renaming brave.exe to chrome.exe like it was suggested in other topics on this forum. The extension has been added to the browser, but doesn't work. The icon is greyed out, and when I click on it, the following image appears:

Welcome to Kaspersky Community.

 

Currently, Kaspersky Protection extension does not support directly Brave, but there is a trick I recall it worked, renaming Brave.exe to Chrome.exe, but You will have to do so every time Brave.exe gets an update.

What is the extension required for? The main functions of web protection, including https scanning, work fine in Brave.

This strange method actually works. 🙂 But how it will affect the browser, web protection and extension functionality is a big question.
