Legacy Solve Media (4) is not in the picker.
Download-page captcha (before minting a link) is not this setting — that is per tier under Settings → Users limits (Download captcha).

Common problems
Forms fail after switching provider
Keys still belong to the old provider, or site key / secret are swapped.
Captcha shows but never accepts
Domain not allowed in the provider console (must include your live hostname, www vs apex).
