I am trying to make selenium work with Firefox 71.00 x64 en-US, the code I am entering is:
from selenium import webdriver
browser = webdriver.Firefox()
but the browser doesn't start and I keep getting this error even if I already added to the system path both geckodriver(last version downloadable) and the directory to firefox.exe:
File "C:\Users\Tommaso\AppData\Roaming\Python\Python38\site-packages\selenium\webdriver\common\service.py", line 72, in start

Fixed it by adding geckodriver.exe to the same directory as python.exe.

Closed last year.
I will provide my code, with included error message. I believe I need to move the gecko driver to PATH, but I tried to do some research on how to do this and unfortunately I didn't find anything definitive. I'm hoping that someone could give me a hand.

I put the path to geckodriver in the systemvariable's path:
