EdgeDriver doesn't work with windows update

[Sjoerd Borneman]

I've just updated Windows to Windows 10, version 1709 today. And when i tried to start my Selenium WebDriver tests the tests on Microsoft Edge failed. This is the exception that i get: ErrorMessage

And the output says "Unable to connect to the remote server". I think that the MicrosoftDriver is not compatible with the new version of Windows. Somebody encountered this problem and fixed it or knows how to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

The Edge WebDriver has to match the Windows version of the machine on which Edge is automated by Selenium.

In your case this is Windows build 16299.

You can download the different Edge WebDriver executables here:
