Do the --profile-directory / --user-data-dir flags help here?
- vackosar 9y agoYes, the page suggests to sandbox using -user-data-dir.
- JepZ 9y agoI am wondering whats the difference. So far I was able to find this explaining the flags: profile-directory: // Selects directory of profile to associate with the first browser launched. [1] user-data-dir: // Specifies the user data directory, which is where the browser will look for all of its state. [2] But to be honest I am not sure I understand that completely. I mean there is also some documentation stating that the user-data-dir contains profile data[3]. Does anybody what the actual difference is?
