I've been a Calibre user for my Kindle Books for quite a while, but even before that I was using FFDL (FanFictionDownLoader). Normally, I was almost exclusively FFDL, but lately (since July?) I've been thinking I'd like to get my FanFiction in a more organized state. There was a time about a year ago when I started trying out Calibre with FanFicFare and I thought it worked out pretty well. Although I didn't like the covers it brought in (too small) and the title page with info about the story was not as helpful. So, I didn't get too much into it.

Admittedly, I haven't read a story on FanFiction.net through my web browser since I first discovered FFDL in 2010, (and I really don't want to have to go back).

But now, with my desire to get more organized, I was trying FanFicFare again, and as I'm sure you're all aware, the Cloudflare Captcha error is biting me big time.

If I understand the workaround correctly, I need to first tell Calibre and FanFicFare where my browser cache is. Then I need to bring up my browser and view each page (chapter) of each story that I intend to download first before I can attempt to download it via FanFicFare/Calibre?

Is this a correct assumption on my part? Sadly, if this is the case, I'll probably still stick with FFDL because I can avoid all the extra time it takes to view each story from first to the latest chapter in order to be able to download it in FanFicFare.

Please tell me I'm wrong? (For me, I'm lucky because I don't read stories on any other website then FanFiction.net)

I'm sorry if I'm ranting and raving, it's just seems so frustrating.

By the way, I saw the posting about the "FlareSolverr" workaround. Unfortunately, it only uses a single line to describe how to use it with Windows, and it didn't succeed.
