Great, thanks a lot, @vicozohili. It seems the new change fixes the issue.

I have just created a PR about it (#11449). It will be available for the next version of Selenium.

@patilpratikn can you download the latest version from here https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/blob/trunk/common/manager/windows/selenium-manager.exe

and run:

selenium-manager.exe --browser chrome --debug --clear-cache

I have any issue like this in selenium 4.8.0, but I sove it in the following way.

The issue occured mainly because you could not connet the Internet, for example, you are in a local network which could not connect the Internet but only some local services.

To solve it, you can install the browser webdriver, let’s use the chrome as an example, you can also refers this:

Clear cache in C:/Users/yourusername/.cache/selenium
Download the webdriver, refers this;

Use the webdriver in this way:

from selenium.webdriver.chrome.service import Service
from selenium import webdriver

service = Service(executable_path="/path/to/chromedriver.exe")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(service=service)
