Timeout errors since updating to 18.0.x with Chrome V124/125

Timeout errors since updating to 18.0.x with Chrome V124/125

Description

My code runs in a .net 4.8 executable which is launched by a Windows Service running under my Windows Admin account

    Dim opts As New LaunchOptions With {
        .Headless = True
    }
    Dim browserFetcher = new BrowserFetcher
    Await browserFetcher.DownloadAsync()

    Using browser = Await Puppeteer.LaunchAsync(opts)
    ...

It hangs on the LaunchAsync line and eventually gives the timeout error below. If I tell Puppeteersharp to use Chrome Version 123, things work as normal again, but with Versions 124/125 I get the errors. Packaging and delivering Chrome 123 is not an option for me. Any Ideas?

• .NET framework 4.8

Seeing the same issue here on PuppeteerSharp 18.0.1 with Chrome 125 running on NET 8 in a Windows Service. Works fine on 18.0.0 with Chrome 124, so our suspicion is that this could be related to the Windows permissions issue in https://github.com/hardkoded/puppeteer-sharp/pull/2637.

Chrome V126 is now available but has the same errors with PuppeteerSharp 18.0.x. Interestingly, if I go back to PuppeteerSharp 10.1.0 and point at the Chrome V126 exe, it works fine with no errors... So, are there any change within Puppeteer that could solve this issue?

Thank you for the report. I'm on vacation right now. I'll take a look at it on Monday!

Just to add more information, I also ran into the Timeout issues with PuppeteerSharp 18.0.1 running on .NET 8 on a Windows IIS environment. When I reverted back to version 18.0.0 everything started working again. When running on my local development build (localhost) 18.0.1 worked fine though.

[kblok]

@aerichmond can you try using Chrome 124?

[aerichmond]

@aerichmond can you try using Chrome 124?

Yes. Specifying the Chrome 124 path does work also.

[kblok]

@ezanker @aerichmond @janode maybe the user executing puppeteer doesn't have permissions to run this piece of code?

I tried doing something that not even the puppeteer upstream is doing. They are telling users to do this on their own.

[aerichmond]

I ran the icacls command on the "..Chrome\Win64-125.0.6422.76\chrome-win64" folder but am still getting the timeout errors.

[janode]

Same here; running icacls is fine, but still getting timeouts when trying to printPdf.
