Having Chrome open as you run this code won't work as intended. Make sure you've closed all instances of Chrome before executing this code. –  Jul 10 '18 at 13:47

I am using two arguments and work well in development

"user-data-dir=C:\Users\NameUser\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data"

"profile-directory=Default"

If you want use another profile (not default) you have to create it and only you have to change the second argument. All profiles are stored in 'User Data' folder

"profile-directory=Profile 1"
