This script utilizes selenium with chromedriver.
If you decide to run the python code you will need to install a few selective python packages. NOTE: You will still need a Chrome version 81.x installed. If you do not wish to make changes to this code or do not want to worry about dependencies please use the executable. I have inclueded a compilied version of my python code in this repository.
