[🐛 Bug]: Selenium gird is not allowing to load chrome browser extensions

[rummitta]

Description

TestLocal.java

Hi Team,

Please check the attached code. With this, I am able to disable captcha (by passing the required headers) on my local Chrome browser (version 148). However, the same code (with RemoteWebDriver) does not pass these headers when executed on Selenium grid chrome (any version higher than 126). What is the reason. How can I update the code so that it works the same way as it worked in my local Chrome browser.

Regards,
Rumki
