Unable to obtain driver from chrome using Selenium Manager when onefile and standalone

[Diegocndd]

Hello! I didn't use chromedriver in my project. With the new version of Selenium (4), it is no longer necessary to specify a chromedriver. However, this chromedriver management is not working.

My code is as simples as:

from selenium import webdriver

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
driver.get('https://www.google.com/')

The code runs on the system fine and when i don't use onefile.

Compiled it with: python -m nuitka --follow-imports --standalone --onefile --include-package=selenium main.py

When executing main.exe, I receive the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):

The above exception was the direct cause of the following exception:

I assume this has very similar solution as playwright will get @KevinRodriguez777 can you then take this one on as well, once we got the raw_copy in-place?

[KRRT7]

from selenium import webdriver

chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
driver.get('https://www.google.com/')

I don't believe that to be the case, selenium doesn't bundle the drivers like playwright does, it uses already exisiting drivers / browsers and controls them directly, i could be wrong though, let me take a look.
