Loading of unpacked extensions is disabled by the admin popup in VBA Excel

[manisha...@gmail.com]

Below is the error I am getting when I launch my chrome with selenium chromedriver. After I click the ok button, my VBA script works normally. But I am getting this popup as:

"Could not load extension from C:\Windows\Temp\scoped_dir23880_1457\internal. Loading of unpacked extensions is disabled by the administrator."

I was able to launch chrome without this popup before and when I started getting this popup, I tried to replace the chrome driver (2.44)compatible to my chrome (V 70). But nothing seems to work.

After researching I was only able to find how to manage this issue in other languages except VBA. One constant solution I keep coming through is writing this piece of code:

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.setExperimentalOption("useAutomationExtension", false);
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);

How can I handle this case in VBA excel using selenium chrome driver? Please help.
