Thanks for reporting this! Looks like a Windows-only issue. I’ll quickly work to find a workaround and ship a new release in the next 7 hours with either a fix or a revert.

Here's a chart of who's affected by this bug:

(Windows users running Python 3.10 or Python 3.11)

The best solution here is to remove pdbpp (and sub-dependencies: fancycompleter, pyrepl, wmctrl) from required dependencies. Hopefully pdbpp can make changes to fix this bug soon so that it can be added back as the main debugger.

In the meantime (with pdbpp to be removed in the next release) people can choose their debugger, and install it separately/optionally. ipdb is also an option, but that one has some large dependencies, such as ipython and jedi.

Note: The standard pdb debugger comes with Python. It doesn't have any fancy colors or features, but it still works.

Fixed in 4.9.1 - https://github.com/seleniumbase/SeleniumBase/releases/tag/v4.9.1

I ended up building my own debugger for version 4.9.2: #1623
