I tried the recommended method of loading a profile, but it's not working for me. It simply opens an empty profile.
from selenium.webdriver import Firefox
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options
profile_path = r'E:/Python/seleniumProfile'
options=Options()
options.set_preference('profile', profile_path)
driver = Firefox(options=options)
driver.get("https://www.google.com")
No warning or error message is given, even if I type an invalid folder as the profile_path.
Old way works great, but gives the deprecation warning:
fp = webdriver.FirefoxProfile('E:/Python/seleniumProfile')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(fp)
driver.get("https://www.google.com")
DeprecationWarning: firefox_profile has been deprecated, please use an Options object
I guess I can live with the warnings, but any help would be appreciated.
This error message...
firefox_profile has been deprecated, please pass in an Options object
...implies that usage of FirefoxProfile() have been Deprecated and with selenium4 and to use a custom profile you have to use an instance of Options . This DeprecationWarning was inline with the following CHANGELOGS:
Selenium 4 beta 1
Deprecate all but Options and Service arguments in driver instantiation. (#9125,#9128)
Selenium 4 beta 2
Deprecate using a Firefox profile in Options
Selenium 4 Beta 3
Only give deprecation warning if Profile is being used in options
Solution
To use an existing firefox profile you can use the following solution:
from selenium.webdriver import Firefox
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.service import Service
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.options import Options
profile_path = r'C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\s8543x41.default-release'
options=Options()
options.set_preference('profile', profile_path)
service = Service('C:\\BrowserDrivers\\geckodriver.exe')
driver = Firefox(service=service, options=options)
driver.get("https://www.google.com")
tl; dr

First, I want to use some addons while selenium controlling my firefox.
So, i tried load default profile of firefox in selenium code.
My code:
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile
profile_path = r'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\y1uqp5mi.default'
default_profile = FirefoxProfile(profile_path)
driver = webdriver.Firefox(service=service, options=options, firefox_profile=default_profile)
But, when i start the code, a DeprecationWarning happened: firefox_profile has been deprecated, please pass in an Options object
I search a lot and i don't think it's a difficult problem, but sadly i can't solve this problem finally, maybe my bad english encumber me... ...
Here is the documentation for this:
https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/webdriver/capabilities/driver_specific_capabilities/#setting-a-custom-profile
I tried this locally and it worked:

Does anyone know how can I resolve this issue? I've tried passing as a service but that seem not to resolve the problem.
You should use Service.

This code works for Windows where it launches Chrome connected via Tor. Keep in mind you have to have Tor browser running beforehand. How can I enable the user-profile and start the browser logged in? I have tried the regular method. I have only 1 profile. Default. Doesn't seem to be working. Any clues?
import time
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
tor_proxy = "127.0.0.1:9150"
chrome_options = Options()
'''chrome_options.add_argument("--test-type")'''
chrome_options.add_argument('--ignore-certificate-errors')
'''chrome_options.add_argument('--disable-extensions')'''
chrome_options.add_argument('disable-infobars')
'''chrome_options.add_argument("--incognito")'''
chrome_options.add_argument('--user-data=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\Default')
chrome_options.add_argument('--proxy-server=socks5://%s' % tor_proxy)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path='C:\\chromedriver.exe', options=chrome_options)
driver.get('https://www.gmail.com')
time.sleep(4)
driver.switch_to.frame(0)
driver.find_element_by_id("introAgreeButton").click()
Use this instead.
chrome_options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data")
you don't have to specify the profile directory (Default) as it is used by default if nothing is explicitly specified using below code. SO in your case use only the above line of code
chrome_options.add_argument("profile-directory=Profile 1")
Eg:
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.support.ui import Select
import time
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
options = Options()
options.add_argument(r"user-data-dir=C:\Users\prave\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data")
driver =webdriver.Chrome("./chromedriver.exe",options=options)
driver.get(url)
Output:
