Chrome Driver - Selenium

I'm a new student of programmin and I'm trying to use Chromedriver and Selenium for the first time. I definitely can't access to the downloaded file, don't know why. This is my inp

Solution 1:

I dont know if you already solved this problem, but this also happened to me and I realized that after downloading chromedriver I forgot to put the file inside the very same directory where python.exe is located. Usually, you can find your python.exe file by going to (C:) --> Users --> your User and finally anaconda3 directory (if you installed anaconda package, wich I highly recommend). Put your chromedriver file inside anaconda3 directory, which is the exact same place where you can find python.exe. And thats it! After doing this, I could run my code without a problem.

Solution 2:

Silvia, try

C:/Users/silvia/Desktop/executables/chromedriver

or whatever your harddisk name it is

Solution 3:

Without giving executable path:

You can use webdriver_manage (install it by pip install webdriver_manager)

from bs4 importBeautifulSoupfrom selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.optionsimportOptionsfrom webdriver_manager.chromeimportChromeDriverManager

chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.add_argument("--headless")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install(), chrome_options=chrome_options)
