I am trying to config chromedriver in visual studio 2019

I know this is something simple but I cant get chromedriver to launch

I have using visual studio 2019 and have chromedriver in this path:

\Visual Studio 2019\Python Scripts\Python 3.7 (64-bit)

but when i try to execute this code:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys

driver = webdriver.Chrome() 
driver.get("http://www.python.org")

I get:

 os.path.basename(self.path), self.start_error_message)
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH. Please see https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/home

I can't figure out why python can't find it

any help would be appreciated

Thanks

You can pass the path like `driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = ) ` – Sachin Patel Aug 11 '19 at 08:24
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path="Users\littl\Downloads\chromedriver_win32") yields the same thing :( – littlejiver Aug 11 '19 at 08:31
Add `chromedriver`'s path to your PATH environment variable. See this answer: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9546324/adding-directory-to-path-environment-variable-in-windows. – NullDev Aug 11 '19 at 08:45
I have the same issue - did you find a solution? – jojo_040 Mar 30 '21 at 12:32
