Website behavior in Chrome instance launched using ChromeDriver is not same as in regular Chrome

I am preparing a simple cucumber/selenium based application which launches a new browser, brings on the login page of Target.com and attempts to login.
I was able to bring up the Target website home page, traverse to login page and fill up credentials. But the button click on "Sign In" was not working. Just to see the behavior, i tried manually logging in to Target website(in the browser launched by the application) using the credentials and noticed, the "Sign In" button does not work. If i launch Chrome regularly as an independent application, it works.
I checked that JS is enabled in the Chrome launched using ChromeDriver. What else could be an issue? The website url is : https://www.target.com (click on Sign In on top right followed by Sign In in the menu to bring login page. The "Sign in" button on the login page is the one giving problem)
Using the following:
ChromeDriver 73.0.3683.20
Chrome Application Version: 74.0.3729.169
I just tried to instantiate a driver navigate to the login url and do a click to the login button and it works correctly.
Probably your currently chromedriver (73.0.3683.20) can't automate your chrome version (74.0.3729.169) try to upgrade the chromedriver and be aware that chrome updates automatically
UPDATE:
Just checked chromedriver doc and your chromedriver version only works form chrome 73
Issue : Your Chrome Browser Version is 74 and Your framework is having ChromeDriver Binary v73.0.3683.20 which supports Chrome Browser v73
Solution : Update your ChromeDriver Binary Version to v74.0.3729.6
Please have a look at Chrome Browser Release Section : Chrome Browser vs ChromeDriver Binary and follow below information -
If you are using Chrome version 75, please download ChromeDriver 75.0.3770.8
If you are using Chrome version 74, please download ChromeDriver 74.0.3729.6 (You shall follow this)
If you are using Chrome version 73, please download ChromeDriver 73.0.3683.68
For older version of Chrome, please see this discussion for the version of ChromeDriver that supports it.
Hope following above would resolve your issue.

Version compatibility of Firefox and the latest Selenium IDE (2.9.1.1-signed)

I visited https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
to install the latest Selenium IDE (v 2.9.1) in Firefox.
My Firefox version is 54 (64-bit)
OS: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit (10.0, Build 14393)
But unfortunately "Add to Firefox" button was shown disabled on the site https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
On that site NOTE was found as:
Note: Selenium IDE will NOT work on Firefox version 55 onwards. Please stay on Firefox version 54 or older.
What can I do to install Selenium IDE on FF 54?
Sad but true, It is no secret by now that Selenium IDE will be deprecated. In fact, it has already stopped working since Firefox 55. Here are some potential replacements that you may consider applying to your project:
Robot Framework
Katalon Studio
Protractor
TestProject
Good luck and Good bye Legend.
I think Firefox is not supported Selenium IDE after 53 or 54 version, I have read that blog
https://seleniumhq.wordpress.com/2017/08/09/firefox-55-and-selenium-ide/
Firefox 55 doesn't support Selenium IDE 2.9.1. FF 54 and less are OK.
Installation Selenium IDE on FF 54:
1. Open Firefox 54 and visit https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/selenium-ide/
2. Click "Download Anyway" link to download (In my case, it was selenium_ide-2.9.1-fx.xpi)
Open .xpi file you download in Firefox 54 -> Click Install and then Restart Now according to following interface:
I faced the similar issues few weeks ago.Firefox version 55 doesn't support Selenium IDE. You need to downgrade your Firefox browser to Firefox version 54, 53 or below.
For doing so, please refer the link below
https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/install-older-version-of-firefox
Also, you need to delete all your old firefox data before installing older version because it might not work if you don't do so.
Then finally you can add Selenium IDE and it works fine.
I need to run Firefox 54 with Selenium but, like the others on this question, wasn't able to easily install Selenium. I did find a way to do this without going to a 3rd party site by copying the XPI download link (just right click on the disabled Add to Firefox button in the Firefox Add-ons page and copy the location), downloading it within Chrome or another browser, and finally just drag and drop the XPI into Firefox. That worked for me, hope this helps someone else.
Ironically, the best versions of selenium and Firefox that work better, powerful and with more options (according to my experience), are those, Firefox 54.0.1 and selenium 2.9.1. Despite they are deprecated. So I understand well your question and need.
Here you have a trick to install that Selenium version in that Firefox version, getting away the inactive add-on button:
Download manually the selenium version 2.9.1 (as a file) and then add it manually through "Install Add-on from file" in Firefox in the section "Extensions".
This is the link to download selenium 2.9.1:

Firefox v45 doesn't start on it own

I recently uninstalled Mozilla Firefox v47 becuase it was not working with Selenium WebDriver. I then installed Firefox v45.0 which is working successfully with Selenium WebDriver.
The problem is that now, cant open Firefox on it own. I double click the application icon and nothing happens. I have tried to run it as an admin, from the program files folder and still nothing happens.
I have no idea how to identify what's wrong.
Any help will be appreciated.
I had the same problem, try to install version 46 of Firefox (it works with the latest version of selenium WebDriver) :

How to get Selenium IDE to work on Firefox 32

I just installed the Selenium IDE plugin into Firefox 32 using the "Get Add-ons" feature. When I click on the Selenium button, I get an alert box that says: "You don't have installed Selenium IDE".
Has anyone else ever encountered this problem, and if so, do you know how to solve it?
Bro please do not add selenium addon from firefox as there is selenium IDE 1.2.0 available
as this is a bug in firefox 32, so you have to manually download the addon for firefox 32
go to this website: http://www.seleniumhq.org/download/ and download Selnenium IDE 2.8.0 version , it will work.Apart from that if you have more questions please write it down on the same thread, i will be very happy to answer them.
