TypeError: WebDriver.__init__() got an unexpected keyword argument 'firefox_profile'

I'm having this error:

TypeError: WebDriver.init() got an unexpected keyword argument 'firefox_profile'

Hi, new here..
I also received this error, what I did is to comment out this parameter from the WebDriver.Firefox() function in browser.py
Now it seems to work overall but no connection. Tons of other parameters were set for 'firefox_profile' so I will keep looking..couldn't seek the docs properly

Lines 123-128:
browser = webdriver.Firefox( #firefox_profile=firefox_profile, #executable_path=driver_path, #log_path=geckodriver_log, options=firefox_options, )

still working through it, but from what i understand firefox_options was depreciated so you would have to use options instead. i'm wondering if this is a similar issue with firefox_profile . check out this question on stackoverflow

update: changing to 'options' worked for me, but layout for instapy has many more issues that need to be resolved in each file. Hasn't been maintained in a while, so it's to be expected

i did fix it by uninstalling selenium and installing version 4.9.1
pip uninstall selenium
pip install selenium==4.9.1
