why "no version number is provided, default: 112" ?

[d-vyd]

Hi folks,

I keep getting the error and trace shown at the end of this post. I'd appreciate any words of wisdom.

I have ChromeDriver 117.0.5938.62 installed at C:\Program Files\ChromeDriver and have been unable to locate another ChromeDriver on my computer.

Chrome was recently updated to 117.

However, no matter what I do, undetected_chromedriver.exe is installed at C:\Users\david\AppData\Roaming\undetected_chromedriver and double-clicking opens a terminal window that says Starting ChromeDriver 112.0.5615.49.

Any python script using selenium produces this error:

WARNING Windows detected, no version number is provided, default: 112
