Hello @obabuba @alexsmedile @jonparro ,

Solution:
1) Download and install Mozilla Firefox (and try to tun a code again)
2) If the first step did not help you, follow this issue: #4923 - simply add this line to browse.py: firefox_options.binary = r'C:Program FilesMozilla Firefoxfirefox.exe';

Worked around by adding one line in options.py
In my case the file was located at
C:UsersAppDataLocalProgramsPythonPython38-32Libsite-packagesseleniumwebdriverfirefoxoptions.py

add the following code:
opts["binary"] = "C:\\Program Files\\Mozilla Firefox\\firefox.exe"
this line should go above opts.update(self.log.to_capabilities())

This is just a workaround and not the permanent fix.
