I am trying to learn a bit more here.
Thank you for any explanation,
Camofoux is a browser designed to skip the protections that a lot of website have put in place for avoiding bots. It simulates human interactions, and metadata is slower than before because of that but it works.

Using calibre 9.17 I suddenly received today the attached windows 11 warnings. I have no clue what has changed as I did not used my computer the last few days. Before that, camoufox seemed to work just fine after I disabled the amazon setting.

Oh...that's why it is much slower than before. I thought I had made some mistake, and I had already tried a few things, but none of it made any difference.
Thank you for that info.
