Description
Lately Instagram shows the user a PopUp to Accept Cookies.
InstaPy doesn't handle that yet, so every LogIn fails.
I fixed it myself so if you need it too, just copy my Code:
1. Find your Python Instapy directory. (For me it is somewhere in `C:\Users\YOUR_USER\AppData\Local\Packages\`)
2. Open the instapy directory and find `login_util.py`
3. Go to the line right befor the Login (For me thats around `line 273`)
4. Copy following Code in there
```
#Check if Cookie PopUp is visible
try:
cookie_elem = browser.find_element_by_xpath("//button[text()='Accept']")
except:
cookie_elem = None
if cookie_elem is not None:
cookie_elem.click()
```
If this is too much for you, just download my attached file and put it in your instapy directory.
