Fix WebDriverException
in Selenium
✅ Solution
WebDriverException in Selenium usually arises from mismatched browser/driver versions, incorrect driver path configuration, or browser incompatibility with the driver. Ensure your browser and corresponding WebDriver (e.g., ChromeDriver, GeckoDriver) versions are compatible and that the driver executable is correctly placed in your system's PATH or explicitly specified in your Selenium code. Updating both the browser and driver to their latest versions often resolves compatibility issues.
