"safebrowsing" flag doesn't work anymore with latest chromedriver version 93.0.4577.1500 in selenium

I have been using chromedriver with selenium using C# and I used to add "options.AddUserProfilePreference("safebrowsing", "enabled");" to options object and everything has been perfect(since almost a year now) until a couple of days ago chrome browser had an update version 93.0.4577.63 so I had to update chrome driver to version 93.0.4577.1500, when I tried to run the scripts, I got this error:

OpenQA.Selenium.WebDriverException : unknown error: Chrome failed to start: crashed. (unknown error: DevToolsActivePort file doesn't exist)

Note: The error goes away when I remove the option: options.AddUserProfilePreference("safebrowsing", "enabled");

Not sure why, but it worked when I changed AddUserProfilePreference method arguments to be like this options.AddUserProfilePreference("safebrowsing.enabled", "true");.
