For example:
ShutdownScript=C:\PWB\logoff.cmd

Re: CloudFlare - Human Verification produces an Error

Add the following to your INI file.

[Browser]
DisablePWBUserAgent=True

Re: CloudFlare - Human Verification produces an Error

What is the URL that is having the issue?

If you navigate to the same URL using Edge on the computer logged in as the same account that is running PWB does the issue persist?
