Why do I get the error "Cannot start Edge because the Windows Feature Microsoft WebDriver is not installed"?
If your system uses the Windows 10 October 2018 Update or a later version of Microsoft Windows 10, and the Windows Feature
Microsoft WebDriver is not installed on your system, you might get the following error when trying to test on
Microsoft Edge:
Cannot start Edge because the Windows Feature Microsoft WebDriver is not installed. See the topic Known Issues > Microsoft Edge in the Help.
To solve this issue, ensure that the Windows update on your system is working properly. If you using an internal Windows Update
server, perform the following actions:
- Ask your IT administrator to add the Windows Feature Microsoft WebDriver to the Windows update server.
- Install the Windows Feature Microsoft WebDriver. For additional information on installing the feature, refer to
Microsoft WebDriver.
