Selenium Driver for Edge 获取恒定版本错误

Question

I was trying to figure out why I am getting the same problem everytime using a python script for autocomplete an exercise on https://at4.typewriter.at/ .

Every time it says:

 DevTools listening on ws://127.0.0.1:50195/devtools/browser/4e38eb0d-6ef9-4d13-9553-820801ba1832

selenium.common.exceptions.SessionNotCreatedException: Message: session not created: This version of MSEdgeDriver only supports MSEdge version 98
Current browser version is 96.0.1054.43 with binary path C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe

I already updated the driver through Microsoft and checked if the python binaries (if it is called so) were at the high enough version to run the code.

A few days ago I encountered a similar issue with Selenium, however I was working with Chrome. I did a little digging around and noticed the library that helped me get around this version error can also be applied to Edge. Below is the code:

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.microsoft import EdgeChromiumDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Edge(EdgeChromiumDriverManager().install())

In a nutshell, once you assign webdriver.Edge(EdgeChromiumDriverManager().install()) it will update Edge driver to its latest version.

More details for this library can be found here: https://pypi.org/project/webdriver-manager/
