    User Data Directory: Path to a User Data Directory. The user data directory contains profile data such as history, bookmarks, and cookies, as well as another per-installation local state.
    After you set, then Headless Producer will have all those data, this means if you log in to Gmail, and the session still valid, Headless Producer also will automatically login to Gmail.
    Important: The User Data Directory should be the User Data Directory of Chrome(Browser Installation Path) you selected. You can find this information by open chrome://version/ in your chrome browser.
When you set User Data Directory, you must close that browser. Only one chrome instance can be open, if you don't close, then Headless Producer cannot use that Chrome
