I had same question but for a different reason is it possible and how to change an old fingerprint for a new one. And as I can see that's not a problem - just use new FP and it will be updated in the profile.
What about your concern about the red flag etc, I I believe that you are overthinking. Bunch of people update their browser regularly and if it would be a reason to block anybody account it would be a total mess. But if you are worry, just change a old FP to a new one, that's it don't do some rare activity, that could be considered suspisious same time like make a $10k payment from your account etc)). Just do it next time you login.
But changing user agent manually can be an unnecessary костыли in this case
High CPU Usage 27.2.0 / Chrome 124.0.6367.61
-
There is a known issue with Chrome 124.0.6367.61 causing high cpu usage and orphaned browsers.
https://support.google.com/chrome/thread/269957336/high-cpu-usage-on-windows-with-chrome-124?hl=en
https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/chrome-for-testing/issues/126
Google quietly released Chrome Version 124.0.6367.92 which seems to fix this issue - they did not provide any release notes so I think they are avoiding bad press.
As soon as I upgraded to BAS 27.2.0 we noticed the problem with high CPU usage. All you have to do is run some browsers and watch for instances of worker.exe around 12% cpu usage.
For the reason of this bug could you please consider upgrading to support chrome Version 124.0.6367.92?
Thank you very much

Yes thank you for your confirmation. The way we first found this problem is we run some of our spiders with regular chrome and when it went to 124.0.6367.61 all our servers started crashing with high CPU. Then after a few days BAS 27.2.0 came out supporting chrome 124.0.6367.61 and we had the exact same problem with our BAS spiders.
Then when chrome 124.0.6367.92 all our regular spiders started working again no more crashes however our BAS spiders are still having this issue so I ask please consider release BAS 27.2.1 that is supporting chrome 124.0.6367.92
Thank you very much for your amazing BAS we love you

With a simple test project, no increase in CPU resource consumption can be detected. Please attach the test project. Or describe in as much detail as possible what browser-related actions are used in the project and what sites the projects work with.
Also
Do you use fingerprinting?
Do you use profiles?
Do you use the new inactivity emulation? -
We have been trying to figure this out for a few days and it appears windows antimalware executable could be the problem. The way we resolve this is we added worker.exe and FastExecuteScript.exe and node.exe to the windows antivirus exceptions list and it appears this makes the problem almost go away.
Yes we use fingerprints
No we do not use profiles
No inactivity emulationIt's worth noting that we do not use BAS rather we use puppeteer-with-fingerprints directly as a libriary
I will note that we only saw this problem start with 27.2.0 and 1 week prior we saw the exact same issue on our non-bablosoft scrapers that use chrome directly and it started with chrome 124
Thank you for your great system.
