The last thing i did was trying to execute a spider with slenium (scrapy crawl xy) that wasnt started with "scrapy startproject XY" . Since then i can´t do anything with scrapy, and im always getting this error. I tried restarting my computer and un/reinstalling scrapy, but the error persists.
Im using Windows 10, scrapy version 1.4.0
