Yeah it won't work with a Windows profile because ArchiveBox doesn't support windows really. It only supports docker and the version of the browser that creates the profile needs to match the version archivebox runs.

Is there a local only way of setting this up or does it have to be done using docker ?

Not on windows, but it absolutely works without docker on Linux/BSD/mac. Just follow the README instructions to install and point it to your chrome profile using a local path.

OK, great. Thanks for that confirmation. However it never manages to work with a Microsoft/Oauth2/ Learning Space login. I'll try and produce some more detailed output of how I have it setup and come back.
