  • Is that a zip file `\chromedriver_win32.zip\chromedriver.exe` ? I don't know if that is the correct way to address it. Maybe you need to extract it first? – Ralf Dec 22 '18 at 13:19
  • In error log, `Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH.` – Geno Chen Dec 22 '18 at 13:22
  • Now i changed it to extracted file, but still its not working. – Naveen Nk Dec 22 '18 at 13:34

I am not cent percent sure this is the problem. If there are spaces in your path, sometimes the path is not recognized in windows. You can try adding additional double quotes around your path like this.

driver = webdriver.Chrome(
    r'"C:\Users\New User prof\Downloads\chromedriver_win32.zip\chromedriver.exe"')

I can't confirm weather it needs to be extracted. I am not using windows right now so can't test.

  1. Make sure you extract the zip file before you use it and provide that extracted file path.
  2. Use forward slash while giving the path.

  3. Try the code below

    from selenium import webdriver 
driver = webdriver.Chrome(
   'C:/Users/New User prof/Downloads/chromedriver_win32.zip/chromedriver.exe')
driver.get("URL")
driver.find_element_by_xpath("//button[@class='goog-inline-block jfk-button jfk-  button-standard']").click()
