I am trying to download some files using Selenium and Python in Chrome, but when I download a file with .msg
extension Chrome asks for permission to download the file. I want to disable it.
I tried the below code
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_experimental_option("prefs", {
"download.default_directory": r"C:\Users\downloads",
"download.prompt_for_download": False,
"download.directory_upgrade": True,
"safebrowsing.enabled": False
})
driver = webdriver.Chrome(chrome_options=chrome_options)
I also tried changing the FileTypePolicies -> download_file_types.pb file, but it didn't work.
