Visual Studio - Unable to obtain chrome using Selenium Manager

[Rafael Santos (Rafa)]

If I execute the Selenium Manager from CMD (same app folder) it shows everything fine:

windows> ./selenium-manager --browser chrome [2024-02-28T22:36:35.504Z INFO ] Driver path: C:\Temp\Selenium\chromedriver.exe [2024-02-28T22:36:35.504Z INFO ] Browser path: C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

But if I run my application in the Visual Studio, I get this error:

IWebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

OpenQA.Selenium.NoSuchDriverException: 'Unable to obtain chrome using Selenium Manager; For documentation on this error, please visit: https://www.selenium.dev/documentation/webdriver/troubleshooting/errors/driver_location'

WebDriverException: Selenium Manager process exited abnormally with 69 code: D:\App\bin\Debug\net8.0\selenium-manager\windows\selenium-manager.exe --browser "chrome" --language-binding csharp --output json Standard Output >> { "logs": [ { "level": "ERROR", "timestamp": 1709160132, "message": "Driver unavailable: Driver path: " } ], "result": { "code": 69, "message": "Driver unavailable: Driver path: ", "driver_path": "", "browser_path": "" } }

There's a lot of topics related to the same issue but without solutioun. Does anyone know how to solve it?

Thank you in advance.

Ensure that the Selenium WebDriver NuGet package version you are using is compatible with your ChromeDriver version. Sometimes, updating Selenium WebDriver to the latest version can resolve issues.

Thank you so much. I uninstalled and installed chrome browser and deleted the chromedriver from project folder. After that it ran fine. Thank you.
