  <p>I have changed the directory to every location suggested on the web, I ran through the installation process on the splinter website, I tried setting it using os.environ, I have edited the code in the webdrive.py file inside the selenium folder, I have tried literally everything I can find on the internet and still I get this error. Also, the program runs correctly when I run it with browser = Browser("firefox"), however as soon as I get to the click() function it exits with an error. But that's a different problem I would prefer to just get it working in Chrome. I am open to any suggestions I'm just hoping someone on here will be able to help me out. Thanks in advance!</p>
