You can try with options like this :
from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\Gamer\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\Profile 2")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\path\to\chromedriver.exe', options=options)
driver.get("https://www.google.co.in")

i try to do that but same my code is
options = Options() options.add_argument(r"user-data-dir=C:\Users\Gamer\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Profile 2") web = webdriver.Chrome('./chromedriver.exe', options=options) |
You can try it as below, For the profile location type chrome://version in the URL bar and check for Profile Path
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument(r"user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\Gamer\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data")
options.add_argument(r'--profile-directory=Profile 2')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=r'C:\path\to\chromedriver.exe', chrome_options=options)
driver.get("https://www.google.co.in")
Also, try to close the main browser instance while running it for multiple time else it might display the Exception
