Images in Google Docs are not displaying in Chrome nor Brave Browser - macOS Sequoia 15.6

Hi all,

Two days ago I updated my Macbook Pro M1 Pro (2021) to macOS 15.6. Since then, when I open my Google Docs files that have images copy pasted from an entire page of a PDF, those images are not showing.


I tested this with Chrome and Brave Browser and I have the same problem in both browsers. Other kind of images like screenshots or photos I pasted from my iPhone are loading with no problem in Google Docs. The issue is only with photos that came from copy pasting an entire page from a PDF with Command+C Command+V. This is a pretty big problem for me because I have a lot of university files where I used this copy paste method and then added my notes underneath.


I also tested this with Safari and Firefox, and I can see the images properly. The problem is that in those browsers I cannot copy paste the entire page from a PDF to Google Docs (I don't know why).


I have also a Macbook Pro with Intel from 2019, and I just tried to update it to MacOS 15.6. Chrome is showing the images fine in that computer, but the problem persists in Brave browser. Safari and Firefox also work fine in that Macbook, but still cannot copy paste entire pages from a PDF in those browsers.


Also, I have a Desktop Computer with Windows and everything is working fine with those Google Docs in Chrome.


I already tried uninstalling Chrome in my Macbook Pro M1 Pro (2021) and deleting all the files from the following directory, but it didn't work

~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome



Here it's an example with Google Chrome from Macbook Pro M1 Pro (2021):

Any ideas of what could be happening?

With regards,

Rodrigo
