Win 10, python 3.8 selenium 3.141 WebDriver error: Message: chrome not reachable [duplicate]

Question

I searched a bunch of questions beforehand. None could solve my problem. I simply want to open a webpage and click "Download" button. But, I am stuck at the opening the page itself. I am using python 3.8 with PyCharm Edu 2020. My Chrome and Chrome driver Version are both 81.xx and I use Selenium 3.141. My Code is as below:

cd_path = r'C:/Users/path to/chromedriver'
driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = cd_path)
driver.get(merged.Link[1])

I have a dataframe consists of links where I want to open those links row by row and click "Download". But, all I get is the error below:

  File "<input>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\path to pycharm project\venv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 333, in get
    self.execute(Command.GET, {'url': url})
  File "C:\Users\spath to pycharm project\venv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\webdriver.py", line 321, in execute
    self.error_handler.check_response(response)
  File "C:\Users\path to pycharm project\venv\lib\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\remote\errorhandler.py", line 242, in check_response
    raise exception_class(message, screen, stacktrace)
selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: chrome not reachable
  (Session info: chrome=81.0.4044.138)

Does anyone knows how can I open an actual Chrome page not the one that says "Chrome is being controlled with the automated test software"?

Try to get your correct driver with

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

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

if you don't have it installed :

pip install webdriver_manager

This package will handle all the manual complications of finding the correct driver.
