I am experiencing an issue with the webdriver_manager when trying to use it with the latest version of Chrome. The following error occurs:

DevTools listening on ws://127.0.0.1:55043/devtools/browser/f8c43d13-73e5-48a7-9ea7-912ac198e3c0
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ---, line 53, in launch_driver
    chrome_opt.add_experimental_option("prefs", prefs)
AttributeError: 'WebDriver' object has no attribute 'add_experimental_option'

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File ---, line 377, in <module>
    self = MasscourtScraper()
  File ---, line 149, in __init__
    self.driver = self.launch_driver()  # Launch web driver
  File ---, line 64, in launch_driver
    driver = uc.Chrome(options=chrome_opt)
  File ---, line 258, in __init__
    self.patcher.auto()
  File ---, line 178, in auto
    self.unzip_package(self.fetch_package())
  File ---, line 308, in unzip_package
    with zipfile.ZipFile(fp, mode="r") as zf:
  File ---, line 1249, in __init__
    self.fp = io.open(file, filemode)
OSError: [Errno 22] Invalid argument: 'C:\\Users\\SAUCEW~1\\AppData\\Local\\Temp\\tmp0qwnh8s4'

The webdriver-manager tries to install chromedriver-win32.zip even though I'm on a x64 machine along with virus detected.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Install the latest version of Chrome.
  2. Use webdriver_manager to launch the Chrome driver.
  3. Encounter the error mentioned above.

Expected Behavior:

The Chrome driver should launch without errors.

Environment:

  • Chrome version: 131.0.6778.70
  • webdriver_manager version: 4.0.2
  • Python version: 3.12.7
  • Operating System: Windows 10

Additional Information: N/A

Please let me know if there are any workarounds or if a fix is in progress. Thank you!
