Moving from Firefox to Chrome as browser-assisted recaptcha
Dear Users,
first of all sorry for possible duplicating of the subject. As most of us already know, for a couple months, Google recaptcha has modified its internal machinery so that is impossible to use Mozilla Firefox as a browser to solve recaptcha through the well known temporary opening of browser (for some to me unknown reasons, the browser takes too much time to solve and Recaptcha miserably fails). On the other hand whenever I simply copy and paste the download address to Google Chrome, things are almost invariantly straightforward and successuful. Therefore, I would like to move JD, browser assisted recaptcha from Firefox to Chrome and thus I have disabled MyJDownloader add-on on Firefox and donwloaded and enabled it on Chrome. But something in JD prevents me to move to Chrome (JD always knocks at the Firefox's door), I suppose that JD automatically chooses the default browser. Since I am fine with Firefox as regards web surfing and don't want to move to Chrome as a default browser, could you please show me the procedure to set the latter as a Recaptcha solver for JD only? Thanks in advance for possible answers |

Yes, JDownloader uses default system browser by default.
You can change it to different browser, please see here https://support.jdownloader.org/Know...aptcha-browser

Dear Jiaz,
thanks so much for your ready reply! Yes, I have tweaked the entry in the Advanced Settings and it works! Anyway, I keep wondering why Firefox no longer works with JD in my case... |

It has nothing to do with JD, Firefox...and in the end only Google knows why
I have Recaptcha issues with Firefox and Chrome for normal websites like dropbox....don't you dare to press logout button...no chance to login again without proving yourself to be human with blood and dna samples!

I have the same problem. I need to open the captcha solver in Firefox but jDownloader keeps trying but failing to open it in Chrome, which is the default browser on my computer. Following the solution provided by Jiaz, I changed the url in the Settings/Advanced Settings/GeneralSettings.browsercommandline section to [ "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe", "%s" ]. But even then jDownloader keeps opening the captcha solver in Chrome. I don't understand why this happens.

Thanks for helping. I checked the help page. I see nothing there to alter the url. I copied the code from Jiad's post which completely matches Firefox's startup url on my computer. So there seems to be nothing wrong with the url. I also have the MyJDownloader Browser Extension 3.2.39 installed and activated in Firefox. Last edited by rockwater; 21.10.2020 at 15:51. |

You need to change BrowserCaptchaSolver.browsercommandline and not GeneralSettings.browsercommandline

Now I see - he was refering to the URL that was linked in your old post (it referred to "GeneralSettings.browsercommandline"). I've updated this so it won't confuse future users looking into this thread. -psp-
