Error when trying to use Selenium - ejected - Mar-26-2019 Pretty sure it has something to do with the run permissions of it but I don't know how to fix it. I'm very new to Python so please dumb down your reply as much as possible. Thank you in advance. + I'm using PyCharm and ran it as administrator, still doesn't work >>> browser = webdriver.Chrome('C:\SeleniumDrivers') Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Users\Mario\PycharmProjects\py1\venv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 76, in start stdin=PIPE) File "C:\Users\Mario\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\subprocess.py", line 775, in __init__ restore_signals, start_new_session) File "C:\Users\Mario\AppData\Local\Programs\Python\Python37-32\lib\subprocess.py", line 1178, in _execute_child startupinfo) PermissionError: [WinError 5] Access is denied During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred: Traceback (most recent call last): File "<input>", line 1, in <module> File "C:\Users\Mario\PycharmProjects\py1\venv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\chrome\webdriver.py", line 73, in __init__ self.service.start() File "C:\Users\Mario\PycharmProjects\py1\venv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 88, in start os.path.basename(self.path), self.start_error_message) selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'SeleniumDrivers' executable may have wrong permissions.

I didnt have "\chromedriver.exe" at the end of my thing. Also ran pycharm as admin |
