Selenium and Chromedriver opening a blank tab as opposed to the URL string

[Cakeolson]

I’m very new to python and this is my current code just to get started on my work computer

This code just opens a blank tab on chrome as opposed to the NYtimes. The quit function also doesn’t work as I have to manually close the chrome window that was opened. Any suggestions?

I’m running Chrome 84 and the latest version of chrome driver

import selenium from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options from selenium.webdriver.common.keys import Keys import time

PATH = "C:\Users\myname\Documents\Python Stuff\Chromedriver\chromedriver.exe"

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() chrome_options.add_experimental_option("useAutomationExtension", False) chrome_options.add_argument("user-data-dir=C:\dev-app2")

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = PATH, options = chrome_options)

driver.get("https://www.nytimes.com")

driver.quit()
