Python Error - How to check if middleware is in your PYTHONPATH and how to add it to the path?

Question

I get the following error when trying to run my Selenium web tests.

Please do not mark this as duplicate because the answer on the original post is actually not answered straightforward and clear.

I am new to this so I would really appreciate clear directions. Please and thank you!

I am running Python 3.7.3 and have checked that my PYTHONPATH content with the command

python -c "import sys; print(sys.path)

Here is what I have in it.

['', 'C:\\Python\\python37.zip', 'C:\\Python\\DLLs', 'C:\\Python\\lib', 'C:\\Python', 'C:\\Users\\uzzma\\AppData\\Roaming\\Python\\Python37\\site-packages', 'C:\\Python\\lib\\site-packages']

I then installed middleware with the command

pip install middleware

Here is the error,

I'm not at all sure how I would go about adding it to the PYTHONPATH. Any help with this would be much appreciated.

Post the error. Maybe you have to use pip3 to install libraries — Wonka, May 09 '19 at 16:33

Definitely have Chrome installed. It's this exact same issue but the solution here is not clear. [link](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/51376731/python-import-error-run-unittest?noredirect=1&lq=1) — thecuriousone, May 13 '19 at 20:33

Well, turns out that my Chrome web driver did not support my Chrome browser version. My browser was running version 74 and the web driver only supported till version 73.

Solution- Updated the Chrome webdriver! :)
