Try to ensure that the browser specified in your particular web driver configuration is properly installed and even properly configured. For instance, if you are trying to use Chrome browser, then try to make sure that you have the latest Chrome driver installed and the oath of it should be set correctly.

Update web driver

You should update your web driver if you are not using the latest version and not compatible with your particular browser. It is important because sometimes the exception occurs due to the mismatch between the version of the browser and the version of the web driver.

            // Set ChromeDriver path

            System.setProperty(“webdriver.chrome.driver”, “path/to/chromedriver”);

            // Initialize ChromeDriver

            WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();

            // Perform automation tasks

            // Close the browser

            Driver.quit();

        } catch (SessionNotCreatedException e) {

            // Handle SessionNotCreatedException

            System.out.println(“Session could not be created: “ + e.getMessage());
