I was having trouble trying to get selenium to run, and I got frustrated, but came back to it.


All I did to solve this issue is place the .exe file which you can find here: Selenium Releases

and I looked for the windows 64 bit file on that page.


If you have a different machine of course download the right file for your you.



So, I'm following the Automate The Boring Stuff With Python course, and I got the following error while running the file on spyder:



Simply take the .exe file and place it in the same folder as your python script. This worked for me, I also ran the .exe file.


Just thought I would post this for anyone who could be taking the course and is stuck.
