Trying to manually download the chromedriver from Chrome like this link:

and always see this AuthenticationRequired, why? Is the hosting down? or just my problem?

Problem solved.
I was doing development testing, and accidentally added a parameter "Authorization" to the request header by using a  Chrome extension  ModHeader.

Disabled that the URL works fine. Just FYI for others.
