    Hey SK2, 

     

    Ok, so that's a step in the right direction! 

     

    Those backslashes are going to be required when executing this in the IDE as Python code, we just needed to remove them for basic CLI interaction. 

     

    For Python and the TC IDE, you will receive that error if you do not have the indentions correct. I would make sure you're indenting properly, and add those slashes back.

     

    For instance, this is how I have mine setup and launches Chrome without any popups.

Does anyone has any resolution for my issue above? I am adding my query again below:

I can open the chrome browser to access iFrame with my code, however I still get the dialog box with 'Failed to Create Data Directory' message but once I manually click on OK button the script continues and enters the URL that open the browser with disabled security version and it performs other actions and access the iFrame object fine. However, how can I avoid getting the dialog box in the beginning?

Browsers.Item("chrome").RunOptions = "--disable-web-security --user-data-dir=\"C:\Users\MyUser\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\" --disable-site-isolation-trials";
Browsers.Item(btChrome).Run("myAppURL");

FYI - bold text has real data

If you google this:

google chrome cannot read and write to its data directory

 

there are many different suggestions for a fix. I don't know which one(s) would work for you.

      Hi SK2,

       

      Sorry to hear you are still having trouble. Unfortunately I'm unable to duplicate this issue on my end. 

       

      The code you posted above is not properly formatted to use inside of TestComplete. May you provide a screenshot of the code within TC?

       

      Here is my code that works without any popups;

      def iframeTest():
  Browsers.Item["chrome"].RunOptions = "--disable-web-security --user-data-dir=\"C:\\Users\\nicholas.paisley\\AppData\\Local\\Google\\Chrome\\User Data\\Default\" --disable-site-isolation-trials"
  Browsers.Item[btChrome].Run("https://www.w3schools.com/tags/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml_iframe")

        Here is my code:

         

        Browsers.Item("chrome").RunOptions = "--disable-web-security --user-data-dir=\"C:\Users\SK\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\" --disable-site-isolation-trials"

        Browsers.Item(btChrome).Run("ApplicationURL")
