google chrome - Setting up chromedriver with selenium [python]

Question

I am trying to set up chromedriver with selenium on Windows 10, but when I try to do

pip install chromedriver==2.11

I get this error

error: [Errno 13] Permission denied:'C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Temp\tmp8y9hyfk2'

----------------------------------------
Command ""c:program files (x86)python36-32python.exe" -u -c "import setuptools, tokenize;__file__='C:\Users\William\AppData\Local\Temp\pip-build-js539jmr\chromedriver\setup.py';f=getattr(tokenize, 'open', open)(__file__);code=f.read().replace('

What do I do to get past this because I need to get webdriver set up as quickly as possible for my work. Downloading it online gave me the same error. I have looked and I have every permission that one can have for editing the files in question, so what could it be?

Answer 1

Just download one from here and access it in your code like this (let's assume you saved it to the desktop):

driver = webdriver.Chrome('C:/Users/User/Desktop/chromedriver.exe')
