Edge Driver no longer works with Windows 10 1809 and Beyond #185

Prior to Windows 10 1809 Microsoft offered a stand-alone Edge webdriver that worked with SeleniumBasic. Starting Windows 10 1809 they include Edge webdriver with release in system32 and sysWOW64. I tried both and they don't work.

it's working for me : i've downloaded the Driver here : https://download.microsoft.com/download/F/8/A/F8AF50AB-3C3A-4BC4-8773-DC27B32988DD/MicrosoftWebDriver.exe following instructions here : https://developer.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/tools/webdriver/ I have Windows10 build 1803. And Edge 17.17134. As explained on the website above, you have to download the appropriate driver for your version. And rename the MicrosoftWebDriver.exe into edgedriver.exe before copying it to SeleniumBasic folder installation.

It also worked for me on Build 1803. It stopped working on Build 1809. Build 1809 has OS Build 17763. You'll notice there is no stand-alone WebDriver for this version. It is build into the Windows release and in System32 directory. If you update it will be obvious.

any release soon ? if no...bad news... anyway, I'm using Chromedriver, which is working well as well.
