@Volk3rDE Your error is a classic one (see https://github.com/Lecrapouille/gdcef/issues/36)

• For which Godot ? 3 or 4 ?
• Which zip ? The one from Github releases ?
• For Godot4 there is a gdcef.gdextension file to tell where the libs are. If its content is not correct, you'll see this error. Mine are inside libs/ folder.
• gdscript in demos tell where to find CEF artefacts. Default script behavior: see screenshots and if you export your project, the binary shall be inside the CEF artifacts.
• One demo had a broken link to CEF artefacts. On Windows this link needs admin rights to be created (if you compile the project my build.py). For your case, you do not need link: a folder is enough (I'm using links to avoid storing several times 1 GB folder of CEF artefacts).
• Note: I also updated a lot the git to separate godot-3 and godot-4 branches (and made some git push force and one commit changes the name of the link to CEF artefacts folder).
• Now git commits are stable. You can refresh your git history.
