Immutable solution version
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'undetected_chromedriver'
Complete solution
Fixes the plain missing-module error for undetected-chromedriver. Use when `import undetected_chromedriver` fails with ModuleNotFoundError naming undetected_chromedriver. Not for ChromeDriver version or Chrome binary errors (those happen after a successful import).
The package is not installed in the running Python. The PyPI name is undetected-chromedriver (dashes) and the import is undetected_chromedriver (underscore). Run python -m pip install undetected-chromedriver and the import works.
The error
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'undetected_chromedriver'Fix it
- Install undetected-chromedriver
python -m pip install undetected-chromedriverExpected: Successfully installed undetected-chromedriver-....
- Confirm
python -c "import undetected_chromedriver as uc; print(uc.__version__)"Expected: prints the version.
When this applies
- any
import undetected_chromedriverfails naming the module - a fresh env following a scraper tutorial
When it does NOT apply
SessionNotCreatedException ... only supports Chrome version Nis a driver/version mismatch after importcannot find Chrome binarymeans Chrome itself is missing
Compatibility
undetected-chromedriver 3.x. Needs Python 3.8+ and selenium installed (it is a selenium dependency).
Why it happens
The package was never installed into the active interpreter. The dash/underscore difference between the PyPI name and the import name trips up pip install undetected_chromedriver guesses (underscore does not exist on PyPI).
Edge cases
pip install undetected_chromedriver(underscore) fails. Use the dash form.- undetected-chromedriver 3.x needs selenium 4. If your env pins selenium 3, upgrade selenium first.
Evidence
The google-reviews-scraper-pro TROUBLESHOOTING.md documents ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'undetected_chromedriver' as the first setup failure users hit, fixed by installing undetected-chromedriver (dash) into the environment.
