My script to scrapes web data from tables is unable to target and tables in Edge. The problem started on Aug 7, 2025. The only thing I noticed is that Edge updated that day to Microsoft Edge-Stable Channel Version 139 Update for x64 based Editions (Build 139.0.3405.86). Whenever I try and target a cell in a table, I get the message “The webpage at… cannot be targeted. Please navigate to another webpage and try again.
