Hello, hope you can help. I’ve been running Katalon Studio on my local windows 10 machine for a while now and have built up a bunch of scripts that work great, mainly against Chrome. I am trying to get the same thing to run on a Windows 10 VM using Virtual Box, but am having problems with Chrome on there and am thinking it is a simple thing I have forgotten to do? The scripts are all pulled into the VM using github. The scripts work fine on the VM with firefox. They work fine with headless Chrome. But running it in Chrome leads to it being Nothing in the Log View or the Console. In the Event log is this: chromedriver is located at default location: C:\Katalon\_Studio\_Windows\_64-5.8.0\configuration\resources\drivers\chromedriver\_win32\chromedriver.exe. In case your browser is updated to a newer version, please use this command to update chromdriver: --config -webui.autoUpdateDrivers=true Launcher status after execution process completed: Terminated Launcher status after execution process completed: Terminated Chrome version is 83.0.4102.106 (same as my local machine) Chrome drive is the same as local machine (and I’ve run the update utility) Katalon is version 7.5.5 The simplest of scripts: import com.kms.katalon.core.webui.keyword.WebUiBuiltInKeywords as WebUI WebUI.openBrowser(“[https://bbc.co.uk](https://bbc.co.uk)”) Opens fine in Firefox. Chrome(headless) works fine. Any help greatly appreciated. ---

Weird. I agree, it sounds like it could be a Chrome issue. I think @duyluong might be the best person to get involved. I use Win10 Hyper-V VMs all the time without issue - I know that doesn’t help but you may want to try that. ---

> [@Andrew\_Halliday](#): > > chromedriver is located at default location: C:\Katalon\_Studio\_Windows\_64-5.8.0\configuration\resources\drivers\chromedriver\_win32\chromedriver.exe This would suggest that you are executing with a different version of Katalon Studio, namely, 5.8.0. ---

And I downloaded the latest from the K site a couple fo days back. I named the installation folder the same as my local pc - which is also 7.5.5. - I did that in case there was some weird reason there was some kind of reference to an installation in the git copy of the files - but since then I have just created this simple “open bbc site” script. One weird thing about the “update” process is 5.8 is where it installed it the first time I used it, and then the updates have just gone in there. ---

To rule out any issues with the automatic update process, please download the appropriate chrome driver version from [here](https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads) and extract it manually to your 7.5.5 install: `{7.5.5_install}/configuration/resources/drivers/chromedriver_win32` ---

Ok, Chrome is Version 83. Driver version 83 downloaded, extracted and placed in the folder (replacing the other one already there) same problem Please see gif. It happens so quickly when ![chrome](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/katalon/original/2X/d/d8a1b24f916e3f79c0302705cae5cb82718dea59.gif) it fails. ---

Looks like it throws an exception further up in the log, can you switch to the console tab and paste the entire log here? ---

I still think it has to do with 7.5.5 looking in your 5.8 install for the driver. Not sure how/why it’s doing that, but there’s no way that’s correct. I’m wondering if you can move/remove your 5.8 install to resolve the issue. The only risk there is that if you delete (or move? haven’t tried it) your 5.8 install, you cannot reactivate it anymore. ---

> [@Andrew\_Halliday](#): > > org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver cannot be found Maybe if I uninstall it (its only a VM), and reinstall, leaving it to the default install path.

I still think it has to do with 7.5.5 looking in your 5.8 install for the driver. Agreed. Pretty sure RemoteWebDriver and SmartWaitWebDriver did a switch-dance around about 7.0 if I recall… Also wondering if a savage clean of the project might cure it. ---

Not sure if this is related, but another thing to consider > A common cause for Chrome to crash during startup is running Chrome as root user (administrator) on Linux. While it is possible to work around this issue by passing ‘–no-sandbox’ flag when creating your WebDriver session, such a configuration is unsupported and highly discouraged. Please configure your environment to run Chrome as a regular user instead. > **[ChromeDriver - WebDriver for Chrome - Chrome doesn't start or crashes...](https://chromedriver.chromium.org/help/chrome-doesn-t-start)** > > This often happens when running ChromeDriver/Chrome using a special test harness (perhaps an IDE) or continuous build system (e.g., Jenkins). > First, try launching the same Chrome binary that your test uses from a normal user command prompt (check... ---

Hi guys thanks for all your help on this. A simple uninstall / reinstall of katalon solved the issue. Don’t know why I didn’t do this sooner - on/off is usually my goto fix. Anyways, all working now, thank you 🙂 ---
