I'm trying to use python's selenium module. I downloaded the Firefox driver and manually added the driver's executable, C:\Users\me\Desktop\gecko_driver\geckodriver.exe, to my system's path. I then restarted my Windows machine but unfortunately, I'm still getting the error message: 'geckodriver' executable needs to be in PATH.

This is not a duplicate of previous stackoverflow questions because those don't address the issue arising AFTER having added the executable to my path.

  • how did you add the path exactly ? did you give C:\Users\me\Desktop\gecko_driver\geckodriver.exe or `C:\Users\me\Desktop\gecko_driver` to the paths list ? Commented May 30, 2018 at 19:26

    try to add only the folder path, not the exe, but the other solutions in the answers are pretty useful Commented May 30, 2018 at 19:28
