Please downgrade to Chromedriver 80 (which is stable version). Chromedriver 81 is still beta version and it supports chrome 81, I am sure you might have Chrome browser version 80.

You can download chrome 80 stable version from here

Edit 1: Recommended

Alternatively you can use webdriver-manager which will take care of installing the latest driver on the fly. So you don't have to worry, each time when your browser get's updated/ newer version of driver is available.

Here is how you can install the webdriver-manager using pip.

pip install webdriver-manager

Once the webdriver_manage is installed successfully you can start using it in the script as shown below.

from selenium import webdriver
from webdriver_manager.chrome import ChromeDriverManager

driver = webdriver.Chrome(ChromeDriverManager().install())
driver.get("https://www.google.com")
driver.quit

The great part with this library is you can install any driver on the fly.
