Can't start Chrome Driver with saved profile on Selenium with C#

Question

I wrote a method to start clear Chrome Driver with different parameters, and it works. But when I was needed to start Chrome with my default profile (with saved cookies) - I wrote this lines of code, it runs browser (and I see my bookmarks, so it runs with cookies), but visual studio sleeps for a minute at return line, and throw me an exception. What is the problem here?

public RemoteWebDriver SetDriver(String Browser)
    {
        switch (Browser)
        {
            case "CH":   
                ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();                    
                options.AddArguments("--user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\user\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data");
                return new ChromeDriver(options);

Answer 1

You need to quote the path since it contains a space character:

options.AddArguments(String.Format(
   "--user-data-dir=\"{0}\"", @"C:\Users\user\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data"));
