I am trying to launch the Internet Explorer web browser using Python/Selenium. When I attempt to run the code, I receive the error as described above "urllib3.exceptions.ProtocolError: ('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None))".

This error is only happening on my machine, my co-workers machine seem to be able to launch the code/browser just fine.

Read through various websites, attempted all solutions here: https://www.joecolantonio.com/selenium-webdriver-fix-for-3-common-ie-errors/.

import selenium from selenium import webdriver

driver = selenium.webdriver.Ie()

driver.get('http://www.google.com')

The expected result should be the Internet Explorer web browser opening, and navigating to google.com.

The actual result is Error 10054: urllib3.exceptions.ProtocolError: ('Connection aborted.', ConnectionResetError(10054, 'An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host', None, 10054, None))

    No, this is not a duplicate. The "Solution" you provided is specific to Chrome. This is an issue with Internet Explorer. I have attempted to updated versions, to no avail. I have listed other solution steps that I have tried which do not work. The issue is specific to my machine and the code works just fine on my co workers machine. – WorkHelp2020 May 31 '19 at 14:45
