How to load a existing FirefoxProfile through Selenium and Python

Question

First time posting here, so I address a problem I cannot solve.Checked Stackoverflow and google. There's some answers for java which I couldn't decode. Therefore you might mention that this is a duplicate, but so far no one answered such a question.

Any ideas will be really appreciated.

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_profile import FirefoxProfile

from selenium.webdriver.firefox.firefox_binary import FirefoxBinary 
binary = FirefoxBinary(r'C:\Program Files (x86)\MozillaFirefox\firefox.exe')
profile = FirefoxProfile(r'C:\Users\User\Documents\dxcwavid.Zydrius5')
driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile = profile, firefox_binary = binary)
driver.get("http://google.com")

geckodriver: 0.23.0

python: 3.7.1

selenium: 3.141.0

Windows: 10 1511

Answer 2

To load an existing Firefox Profile through Selenium and Python you can use the following solution:

• Code Block:

   from selenium import webdriver myprofile = webdriver.FirefoxProfile(r'C:\\Users\\AtechM_03\\AppData\\Roaming\\Mozilla\\Firefox\\Profiles\\moskcpdq.SeleniumTest') driver = webdriver.Firefox(firefox_profile=myprofile, executable_path=r'C:\\Utility\\BrowserDrivers\\geckodriver.exe') driver.get('https://www.google.co.in') print("Page Title is : %s" %driver.title) driver.quit() 

• Console Output:

   Page Title is : Google
