The error while creating a object of browser
Hey @Aashi-Agarwal-2380268668952871, what is the error you are getting ? Can you please post a screenshot of it ? Also I would suggest you to try using microsoft edge driver only, since you are working on edge.
Hope this helps !
Happy Learning 
this is the line i have wrote.
#now create a browser object
browser= webdriver.Edge(āC:\Users\Aashi Agarwal\Desktopā)
this is the error i have got.
File āā, line 2
browser= webdriver.Edge(āC:\Users\Aashi Agarwal\Desktopā)
^
SyntaxError: (unicode error) āunicodeescapeā codec canāt decode bytes in position 2-3: truncated \UXXXXXXXX escape
Hey @Aashi-Agarwal-2380268668952871, microsoft edge have all different syntaxes, I would suggest you to switch your default browser to chrome. Still if you want to continue with edge only then you can refer to this documentation.
Hope this helps !
Happy Coding
how to switch default browser as chrome?
You just need to download chrome(any latest version) and then download the chrome drivers following the method taught by sir in the video.
i have chrome downloaded and also its drivers. but my jupyter always open on edge
Did you try using the chrome drivers exactly by following the steps in the video ? Does it give any error ?
#now create a browser object
browser= webdriver.Chrome(āC:\Users\Aashi Agarwal\Desktopā)
look the error is same
File āā, line 2
browser= webdriver.Chrome(āC:\Users\Aashi Agarwal\Desktopā)
^
SyntaxError: (unicode error) āunicodeescapeā codec canāt decode bytes in position 2-3: truncated \UXXXXXXXX escape
The path you gave is not correct I guess. It should be something like this :
browser = webdriver.Chrome('/Users/aayushkhurana/Desktop/chromedriver')
Try this. I hope you have placed your unzipped chromedriver on the desktop.
