How to use normal chrome completely without chromedriver selenium python not duplicate

How to use normal chrome completely without chromedriver selenium python not duplicate.
I am using python 3.8.8,os is windows 7 ultimate with pycharm as
IDE and chrome version is around 96. and my problem is that whenever I use my python script to scrape a website it uses chromedriver and when I specify what's given below:
options = Options ()
options.add_argument(r"user-data-dir=my chrome path which is not Executable instead the user data")
#this works but when opening chrome it shows "browser is controlled by automated software" and changing it to normal chrome. Exe won't work
Sure it uses normal chrome with my credentials but it still needs chromedriver to work and when I delete the chromedriver it throw an error and when I go into selenium source code in a file called site.py(or sites.py) which I changed the variable self. executable to chrome.exe path and it worked and it won't show the message browser is controlled by automated software but it won't do anything , it is just stuck there and what I want to do is use chrome as the browser to scrape without chromedriver in my pc is it possible? If yes please tell me how should I go on to do it and you can ask for further Clarification and details and Thanks in advance

By default, selenium is detected as an automated software and is flagged by most websites, and the flag is unable to be removed. There are, however, external libraries that can be installed that can remove the flag.
There are options here to try to get around the default flag and hide the fact the browser is automated.
Edit
I understand the question further, and see that you want a more portable chrome option. Chrome driver is a very specific program controlled by selenium and must be used. There is no substitute. You can use Firefox driver or internet explorer, but a webdriver must be used (hence the name driver for driving the main browser). When you specify the directory for the Chrome binary, you aren’t removing the middleman of the chromedriver, only Specifying where chrome driver needs to look!

Using Selenium you won't be able to initiate/spawn a new Browsing Context i.e. Chrome Browser session without the ChromeDriver.
The Parts and Pieces
As a minimum requirement, the WebDriver i.e the ChromeDriver talks to a browser through a driver and the communication is two way:
WebDriver passes commands to the browser through the driver
Receives information back via the same route.
Hence using ChromeDriver is a mandatory requirement.

Python Selenium Firefox Accessibility issue

I tried selenium in Python to open a Google page, however, instead of loading the page, the Firefox browser keeps telling me the Accessibility issue. I followed the instruction to change the settings but can not find it!
Besides, I found a solution to a similar problem - Webdriver.get(url) open Firefox but not the URL, but after I linked geckodriver, the Accessibility problem is till there.
Could someone please help? Tens of Thanks in advance!!!!!
from selenium import webdriver
driver = webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'path\geckodriver.exe')
driver.get('http://www.google/com')
Screenshot - Accessibility issue
Screenshot - Firefox instruction

Selenium: How to work with already opened web application in Chrome

I'm looking for a solution that could help me out automating the already opened application in Chrome web browser using Selenium and Python web driver. The issue is that the application is super secured, and if it is opened in incognito mode as Selenium tries to do, it sends special code on my phone. This defeats the whole purpose. Can someone provide a hacky way or any other work around/open source tool to automate the application.

Selenium doesn't start Chrome in incognito mode, It just creates a new and fresh profile in the temp folder. You could force Selenium to use the default profile or you could launch Chrome with the debug port opened and the let Selenium connect to it. There is also a third way which is to preinstall the webdriver extension in Chrome. These are the only ways I've encountered to automate Chrome with Selenium.

How to run selenium python script in current window session?

When I'm writing a selenium python script, I have to start a session with some command like
driver = webdriver.Firefox()
However, this opens a new browser window.
What I would like is to have the window that is already open be accessed by the script, much like it would be if I have started the selenium IDE add-on (that cannot run python scripts afaik).
Could anybody please tell me if there is a way to do that?

I've often wanted this functionality with Selenium and Python myself. Unfortunately, it's not part of Selenium's current features.
For more info, check out the answer threads here:
Can Selenium interact with an existing browser session?
(looks like someone came up with a hack solution, but I haven't tested it)
and here:
Can Selenium webdriver attach to already open browser window?
Good luck!
