1.Conditions
1. The browser used is Microsoft Edge.
2. Briefly describe the process (code implementation)
1.pip installation
2.Download
3. Unzip
4. Run
3. Found an error
1) Reason
Before giving the code, I found an error, which was outrageous. Let the author explain slowly and in detail. First, selenium4.11.2 is installed and edge webdriver is also configured. In one of the projects, the interpreter is python3.10 and the following code is run
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Edge()
browser.get('https://www.baidu.com')
I found that an error was reported. The reason for the error was reported at the end.
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchDriverException: Message: Unable to obtain driver for MicrosoftEdge using Selenium Manager.; For documentation on this error, please visit: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/webdriver/troubleshooting/errors/driver_location
If you search the Internet for the reason, you will find the following results:
It's a pity that this boss's solution is not suitable for the author's error report. Although the error report is the same, it is still different after all. The specific situation must be analyzed in detail.
2) Reasoning
Therefore, the author writes out all the errors reported.

raise NoSuchDriverException(msg) from err
selenium.common.exceptions.NoSuchDriverException: Message: Unable to obtain driver for MicrosoftEdge using Selenium Manager.; For documentation on this error, please visit: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/webdriver/troubleshooting/errors/driver_location
Start with browser = webdriver.Edge().
Go down and go here self.service.path = DriverFinder.get_path(self.service, options), go in and look at the source code. Then enter the get_path method, the code is as follows
@staticmethod
def get_path(service: Service, options: BaseOptions) -> str:
path = service.path
try:
path = SeleniumManager().driver_location(options) if path is None else path
except Exception as err:
msg = f"Unable to obtain driver for {options.capabilities['browserName']} using Selenium Manager."
raise NoSuchDriverException(msg) from err
if path is None or not Path(path).is_file():
raise NoSuchDriverException(f"Unable to locate or obtain driver for {options.capabilities['browserName']}")
return path
You can try to print the path. The first path is empty, and the second path is not printed and an error is reported. Look at the contents of the error report again, including this paragraph
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\520\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\pythonProject4\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\driver_finder.py", line 38, in get_path
path = SeleniumManager().driver_location(options) if path is None else path
It also pointed out that there is a problem with this line of code, so enter the driver_location method in this line of code, look at the content, and then look at the next error report
File "C:\Users\520\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\pythonProject4\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\selenium_manager.py", line 89, in driver_location
output = self.run(args)
This line of code can be found in the driver_location method, so I guess there is something wrong with this line of code. You can also print some variables, such as args, and finally confirm this guess.
So, enter the self.run method. The main codes are as follows
@staticmethod
def run(args: List[str]) -> dict:
"""
Executes the Selenium Manager Binary.
:Args:
- args: the components of the command being executed.
:Returns: The log string containing the driver location.
"""
if logger.getEffectiveLevel() == logging.DEBUG:
args.append("--debug")
args.append("--output")
args.append("json")
command = " ".join(args)
logger.debug(f"Executing process: {command}")
try:
if sys.platform == "win32":
completed_proc = subprocess.run(
args, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE, creationflags=subprocess.CREATE_NO_WINDOW
)
else:
completed_proc = subprocess.run(args, stdout=subprocess.PIPE, stderr=subprocess.PIPE)
stdout = completed_proc.stdout.decode("utf-8").rstrip("\n")
stderr = completed_proc.stderr.decode("utf-8").rstrip("\n")
output = json.loads(stdout)
result = output["result"]
Look at the error report again
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\520\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\pythonProject4\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\selenium_manager.py", line 123, in run
stdout = completed_proc.stdout.decode("utf-8").rstrip("\n")
AttributeError: 'str' object has no attribute 'decode'. Did you mean: 'encode'?
Obviously there is a problem with stdout = completed_proc.stdout.decode("utf-8").rstrip("\n") in self.run. The reason for the error is that str does not have this decode attribute. It does not.
Print completed_proc and the returned results are as follows
CompletedProcess(args=['C:\\Users\\520\\AppData\\Roaming\\Microsoft\\Windows\\Start Menu\\Programs\\pythonProject4\\lib\\site-packages\\selenium\\webdriver\\common\\windows\\selenium-manager.exe', '--browser', 'MicrosoftEdge', '--output', 'json'], returncode=0, stdout='{\n "logs": [\n {\n "level": "INFO",\n "timestamp": 1692601797,\n "message": "Driver path: C:\\\\Users\\\\520\\\\AppData\\\\Local\\\\Programs\\\\Python\\\\Python310\\\\msedgedriver.exe"\n },\n {\n "level": "INFO",\n "timestamp": 1692601797,\n "message": "Browser path: C:\\\\Program Files (x86)\\\\Microsoft\\\\Edge\\\\Application\\\\msedge.exe"\n }\n ],\n "result": {\n "code": 0,\n "message": "C:\\\\Users\\\\520\\\\AppData\\\\Local\\\\Programs\\\\Python\\\\Python310\\\\msedgedriver.exe",\n "driver_path": "C:\\\\Users\\\\520\\\\AppData\\\\Local\\\\Programs\\\\Python\\\\Python310\\\\msedgedriver.exe",\n "browser_path": "C:\\\\Program Files (x86)\\\\Microsoft\\\\Edge\\\\Application\\\\msedge.exe"\n }\n}', stderr=b'')
The return is a CompletedProcess object, yes, print completed_proc.stdout again, the code is as follows
{
"logs": [
{
"level": "INFO",
"timestamp": 1692601871,
"message": "Driver path: C:\\Users\\520\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python310\\msedgedriver.exe"
},
{
"level": "INFO",
"timestamp": 1692601871,
"message": "Browser path: C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft\\Edge\\Application\\msedge.exe"
}
],
"result": {
"code": 0,
"message": "C:\\Users\\520\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python310\\msedgedriver.exe",
"driver_path": "C:\\Users\\520\\AppData\\Local\\Programs\\Python\\Python310\\msedgedriver.exe",
"browser_path": "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Microsoft\\Edge\\Application\\msedge.exe"
}
}
This result is a string. Obviously, str has no decode attribute. This is the root cause of the error.
3) Thinking
Why print(completed_proc.stdout), the type of the printed object is str, obviously according to the understanding of the code, it should be printed as bytes type, then there will be decode. You can go to the official website to see the explanation, as shown below.
What is returned is a byte sequence or string, which may be interesting
Because I have python310 and python311 on my computer, but I used python311 as the editor to create the project. No error was reported when running the code, and the printed completed_proc.stdout is a byte sequence, so no error was reported.
Why do the same codes have different results when running in an environment other than Python? I don't know the reason.
4) Modify
Since completed_proc.stdout is a string, comment out decode directly. The code is as follows
stdout=completed_proc.stdout
# stdout = completed_proc.stdout.decode("utf-8").rstrip("\n")
# stderr = completed_proc.stderr.decode("utf-8").rstrip("\n")
output = json.loads(stdout)
No errors were reported when running.
4.Text
The above error report is just an episode. Now to achieve the real configuration, first I saw the code of this boss

With this code, selenium and webdriver can be installed directly and updated. If you encounter the above error report, if the content of the error report is the same, you can modify it according to the content. If there are other errors, you can see your personal analysis.
For other browsers, not much can be found.
5.Results
The author found that it seems that msedgedriver.exe will be automatically downloaded the first time it is run, and selenium has become advanced, which was not the case before. The author’s path is as follows
