Need Help: I am keep getting the error "cannot create temp dir for unpacking extensions"

[muhad...@gmail.com]

I am keep getting this error. I've tried to solve it using different ways sometimes it started succeeding then after couple run I get the same error again continuously. Please help

AWS EC2 Instance - Microsoft Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard

Selenium WebDriver Version - 3.11.2.0

ChromeDriver Version - 2.38.552522

Chrome Browser Version - 65.0.3325.146

p.s. Additionally I've tried changing the versions for chrome browser, Selenium and ChromeDriver but no luck. Also I wanted to find out where it is trying to create the temp dir?

Thanks!

I am also getting this issue, but only in debug mode in Eclipse. The directory, from what I can tell, is your TMP or TEMP environment variables. Something like "C:\Users\%user_id%\AppData\Local". In that directory you can find "Google" > "Chrome" > "User Data". This is where it is trying to store data, but for some reason it cannot. I haven't figured it out yet but is this happening when you are trying to debug or when you run as well?
