Re: How to make ReCaptcha readable (for Nitroflare, DataFile, etc)

Yes, the standalone version uses an ancient version of firefox engine (XUL). Now it's not supported anymore.

Please try recaptcha v1.2.7, it only works with slimerjs v1.0.0, and certain firefox version, that is Firefox-ESR 60.x (for example: direct download for Windows 64-bit (en-US): [download-installer.cdn.mozilla.net]) .

The attached file is also needed to patch slimerjs, so it can work with firefox-ESR 60.x.

1. Copy slimerjs-1.0.0.zip to "tools" folder inside your FRD installation folder.
2. Extract slimerjs-1.0.0.zip. You'll get slimerjs-1.0.0 folder, rename it to slimerjs.
3. Update recaptcha plugin to at least version 1.2.7 (Help -> Check for new plugins).
4. Copy the attached file to the "slimerjs" folder, overwrite the file.
5. Edit "application.ini" file (it's inside "slimerjs" folder), replace this line:

MaxVersion=59.*

with

MaxVersion=60.*

The difference between the original "omni.ja" which comes with slimerjs and the attached file:

• The attached file contains the fix to make it works with firefox-esr 60.x. It's taken from [github.com]
• The attached file also hugely improves performance, it disables strict js option, taken from [github.com]
• The relevant files that are modified: defaults/preferences/prefs.js, and modules/slQTKeyCodeToDOMCode.jsm.

"omni.ja" file is an archive file, it can be opened using your favourite archive program (7zip, etc).

If you want to keep using regular (non v60.x) firefox, instead of the 60.x ESR version, you can install the ESR version to different folder. But you need to modify "slimerjs.bat" file (it's inside "slimerjs" folder), so slimerjs will use the 60.x ESR version:

• Edit "slimerjs.bat".
• Replace this code:

if exist "%programfiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" (
    SET "SLIMERJSLAUNCHER=%programfiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
)

Change the "%programfiles%\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" with the location of firefox 60.x ESR version, for example, it becomes:

if exist "%programfiles%\Mozilla Firefox 60-ESR\firefox.exe" (
    SET "SLIMERJSLAUNCHER=%programfiles%\Mozilla Firefox 60-ESR\firefox.exe"
)
