How to fix ProfileNotFoundError in Django

Basically, I'm creating an app and currently I'm testing out an "Edit Profile" feature. For me (the admin) I manually added myself to the Profile model using the admin page. However, when I tried it on my test account, it didn't work. I know what the problem is (I didn't add him to the model) but I was wondering how I could fix it. Here's my model:

class Profile(models.Model):
    user = models.OneToOneField(User, on_delete = models.CASCADE)
    image = models.ImageField(default = 'default.jpg', upload_to = 'profile_pics')

    def __str__(self):
        return f'{self.user.username} Profile'

    def save(self):
        super().save()

Here's my views.py:

@login_required
def profile(request):
    user_form = UpdateUser()
    profile_form = UpdateProfile()

    if request.method == 'POST':
        user_form = UpdateUser(request.POST, instance = request.user)
        profile_form = UpdateProfile(request.POST,
                                     request.FILES,
                                     instance = request.user.profile)

        if user_form.is_valid() and profile_form.is_valid():
            user_form.save()
            profile_form.save()
            return redirect('profile')
    else:
        user_form = UpdateUser(instance = request.user)
        profile_form = UpdateProfile(instance = request.user.profile)
    context = {
        'user_form' : user_form,
        'profile_form' : profile_form
    }

My signals.py:

from django.db.models.signals import post_save
from django.contrib.auth.models import User
from django.dispatch import receiver
from .models import Profile

@receiver(post_save, sender = User)
def create_profile(sender, instance, created, **kwargs):
    if created:
        Profile.objects.create(user = instance)


@receiver(post_save, sender=User)
def save_profile(sender, instance, **kwargs):
    instance.profile.save()

And finally, my apps.py:

from django.apps import AppConfig


class UsersConfig(AppConfig):
    name = 'users'

    def ready(self):
        import users.signals

INSTALLED_APPS:

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    'django.contrib.admin',
    'django.contrib.auth',
    'django.contrib.contenttypes',
    'django.contrib.sessions',
    'django.contrib.messages',
    'django.contrib.staticfiles',
    'social',
    'crispy_forms',
    'users',
    'users.apps.UsersConfig',
]

add args to your save method:

@receiver(post_save, sender=User)
def save_profile(sender, instance, *args, **kwargs):
    instance.profile.save()
