Cookies expire shortly, can't add user data dir

[alzyras]

Hello,

The cookies I generate with chrome plugin or the script generates by itself seem to expire every other time. The expiration date looks okay inside the cookie, but perhaps they are not loaded properly (But they are loaded well every other time though..). It seemed to be better on my mac.

Here I'm running windows 11.

I also tried setting user data dir to my already authenticated chrome, but it doesn't work. I assume the stealth plugin creates new user profiles every time.

What could I do to use an existing data dir or what could be the issue with the cookies? :) I see it also has code if (userDataDir) - don't use cookies, but it seems like the stealth plugin overrides it?

Thank you for your replies.

I managed to get the user profile to work by installing chrome canary to make a new profiles folder seprate from the normal chrome one.

The app still runs the inbuilt chromium.
I couldn't get it to work headless, so added those launch params to make it be off screen.

    {
        headless: false,
        userDataDir: process.env.LOCALAPPDATA + "/Google/Chrome SxS/User Data/",
        args: [
            '--profile-directory=Upload', //Select your profle here
            '--window-size=200,200',
            '--window-position=3000,3000'
        ]
    }
