This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 99 Current browser version is 98.0.4758.102

My current chrome version : 98.0.4758.102

My current selenium version: 4.1.1 and cannot download chrome 99. My chrome 98 is updated to the last version, how do I get chrome 99 assuming it’s a beta version?

Trace log :

Answer

Starting ChromeDriver 99.0.4844.51

Current browser version is 98.0.4758.102

Your chrome driver is for chrome version, which is not out yet. You have several solutions:

  • You can download actual ChromeDriver 98.0.4758.102 from here and use it.

  • You can download Chrome Beta (currently 99.0.4844.51) or Chrome Dev (currently 100.0.4896.12), where you have access to newer versions.

  • If you are using WebDriverManager from io.github.bonigarcia, you have to set correctly browserVersion and driverVersion:

    WebDriverManager.chromedriver().browserVersion("98.0.4758.102").setup();
    WebDriverManager.chromedriver().driverVersion("98.0.4758.102").setup();
