I am trying to execute mgsedgedriver on Mac. I am seeing this error --
org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: unknown error: cannot find Microsoft Edge binary

If I don't put file at specified path then I see file not found error and when file is present then I see this. I can open driver by double clicking on it. So not sure what's going on here.
Thank you for your help.

You'll probably find that the version of the MicrosoftWebDriver is incorrect. I received this error in that case and downloading the correct version as per my version of Edge resolved the error.

Thank you. I have Version 77.0.211.3 (Official build) Dev (64-bit) installed on my Mac and downloaded matching driver. Still receiving this error. I just double checked it.

I could not get this to work either. I am using the new Chromium Edge and that is a likely problem. I found WebDriver (Chromium) but that had problems too. I did a little guessing and the following works for me. I hope this is relevant.

	var edgeOptions = new EdgeOptions();
	var msedgedriverDir = @"D:\Software";
	var msedgedriverExe = @"msedgedriver.exe";
	var service = EdgeDriverService.CreateDefaultService(msedgedriverDir, msedgedriverExe);
	var driver = new EdgeDriver(service, edgeOptions);
	driver.Navigate().GoToUrl("https://bing.com");
	Thread.Sleep(2000);
	driver.Close();
	service.Dispose();
