Hello All,

   I am unable to launch Edge browser using below Java code:

EdgeOptions options = new EdgeOptions();

options.setCapability(CapabilityType.ACCEPT_INSECURE_CERTS, true);

options.addArguments("start-fullscreen");

driver = new EdgeDriver(options);


In latest Selenium, I do not have to give path for EdgeDriver as Selenium manager automatically should have picked the driver version which is compatible while executing.

However in my case it throws below error:


WARNING: There was an error managing msedgedriver (error sending request for url (https://msedgedriver.azureedge.net/LATEST_RELEASE_140_WINDOWS)); using driver found in the cache


When I tried to access the URL myself< I was not able to do so.

Please help.


Regards,

Mukul Kamat

Selenium 4.36 hasn't been released yet, so I don't know which version you are actually using... but the download location for Edge changed recently. If you use Selenium 4.35+ it should work fine.

Thank you.
I will then await for Selenium 4.36.0 to be launched.

The fix was in 4.35.

Sorry. but then I am getting same issue in version 4.35.0
PS -> Earlier I had mistakenly quoted the version as 4.36.0. I am having selenium version 4.35.0
