Recently I've been trying to open a new chrome window with my user profile. I've got the code below:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service

options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\\Users\\user_name\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\")
options.add_argument("profile-directory=Profile 1")

ser = Service("C:\\path\\to\\my\\chromedriver.exe")

driver = webdriver.Chrome(service = ser,options=options)
driver.get('https://www.google.co.in/')

After running it, this error showed up:

selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: Chrome failed to start: exited normally.
(unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist)
  (The process started from chrome location C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe is no longer running, so ChromeDriver is assuming that Chrome has crashed.)
Stacktrace:

It only occurs if another chrome window is opened. How can I fix this?

If you download the latest version of Chromedriver, import it into your project, and pass the driver path of Chromedriver, the issues will resolve.
