ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'webdriver_manager' error even after installing webdrivermanager

Question

I've installed webdrivermanager on my windows-10 system

C:\Users\username>pip install webdrivermanager
Requirement already satisfied: webdrivermanager in c:\python\lib\site-packages (0.8.0)
Requirement already satisfied: lxml in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from webdrivermanager) (4.5.1)
Requirement already satisfied: requests in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from webdrivermanager) (2.20.1)
Requirement already satisfied: tqdm in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from webdrivermanager) (4.46.1)
Requirement already satisfied: appdirs in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from webdrivermanager) (1.4.4)
Requirement already satisfied: BeautifulSoup4 in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from webdrivermanager) (4.6.0)
Requirement already satisfied: certifi>=2017.4.17 in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from requests->webdrivermanager) (2018.11.29)
Requirement already satisfied: chardet<3.1.0,>=3.0.2 in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from requests->webdrivermanager) (3.0.4)

Requirement already satisfied: urllib3<1.25,>=1.21.1 in c:\python\lib\site-packages (from requests->webdrivermanager) (1.23)

Still whenever I am trying to use webdrivermanager I'm facing an error.

Code Block:

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path=ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.get('https://www.google.com/')

Console Output:

C:\Users\username\Desktop\Debanjan\PyPrograms>webdriverManagerChrome.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "C:\Users\username\Desktop\Debanjan\PyPrograms\webdriverManagerChrome.py", line 2, in <module>
    from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'webdriver_manager'

Can someone help me, if I'm missing something?

Incase it adds any value, I'm using sublimetext3

`webdrivermanager` and `webdriver-manager` - are different libraries. Your code is from `webdriver-manager` library, which has two aliases: `webdriver_manager` & `webdriver-manager` and could be installed by any of them. — gore, Oct 16 '21 at 08:02

Update (thanks to Vishal Kharde)

The documentation now suggests:

pip install webdriver-manager

Solution:

Install it like that:

pip install webdriver_manager

instead of pip install webdrivermanager.

Requirements:

The newest version, according to the documentation supports python 3.6 or newer versions:

Reference: https://pypi.org/project/webdriver-manager/

@ScottyBlades check the version of python – soMarios Dec 09 '20 at 23:24
Yea. That was it. ty. – ScottyBlades Dec 09 '20 at 23:25
Perhaps you can update your answer to give an explanation of Python versioning issue, specifically, macs come loaded with 2.7 but a lot of tap dancing is needed to function with 3+. I can upvote that. – ScottyBlades Dec 09 '20 at 23:34
@Mario It should be updated to "pip install webdriver-manager" as per the latest doc – Vishal Kharde Mar 24 '21 at 15:57
@VishalKharde thanks for letting me know. I updated my answer. Kudos :) – soMarios Mar 24 '21 at 16:04

First install webdriver manager using the following command in command prompt opened from the python file path.

pip install webdriver-manager.

Next open your pycharm tool and go to settings -> project interpreter -> and click on + icon and search for webdriver-manager and install that.

And run the below code:

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())

I found that this one worked for me so:

pip3 install webdrivermanager

Not sure if it'll help anyone, but pip3 works better than normal pip as it installs correct dependencies

some times just restarting your code editor can be the ultimate solution that is what worked for me after spending 2 hours on the web trying to find out why the webdriver_manager is not picked up by python

use this to install

pip install webdriver_manager

and then restart your VScode if that is what you are using as a code editor I don't know why I have to but it worked the time waste.
