Python - Webdriver Manager don't find Google Chrome?-CodePudding

I am working on a little Web-Scraping project with Selenium. I had to replace driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_driver_path) with driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install())) because executable_path was deprecated. Here is a short snippet of my code:

from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys
from selenium.webdriver.common.by import By
import time

#chrome_driver_path = "C:\chromedriver_win32/chromedriver.exe"
#driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=chrome_driver_path)
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=Service(ChromeDriverManager().install()))

And here's the problem, when I run the code that's the output I get:

[WDM] - ====== WebDriver manager ======
[WDM] - Could not get version for google-chrome. Is google-chrome installed?
[WDM] - Get LATEST chromedriver version for None google-chrome
[WDM] - Driver [C:\Users\User\.wdm\drivers\chromedriver\win32\102.0.5005.61\chromedriver.exe] found in cache

I installed the latest version of Selenium and the ChromeDriverManager, why can't it find Google Chrome? Thanks in advance!

For everyone who has the same problem, the following line worked for me:

s=Service('C:\chromedriver_win32\chromedriver.exe')
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=s)

You can check your Chrome Version by opening the chrome browser > settings > About Chrome. Make sure that you are using the same selenium chrome version that is in your chrome browser. You can download the version from this website: https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads
