Hi, I also encountered the same issue. I am using it on both Mac and Windows. On Mac, everything works fine with the compiled executable, but on Windows, I get this error: playwright: target closed: Target page, context or browser has been closed. I will put the full error message below.

I checked the playwright versions and chromium versions downloaded on both Mac and Windows, and I found they should be consistent. The chromium version is 1148, ffmpeg is 1010, and ms-playwight-go is 1.49.1. Under these circumstances, everything runs normally on Mac, but not on Windows. I am seeking for help.

@buaatian thast rigt, I don`t figure out what happens, but, I installed the scrapper in another machine, a laptop, and works fine, the windows arch its the same in the all machines, x64, I verified that the browsers were downdloaded succesfully, its same version in the 3 machines, how ever, in the desktop pc HP , the job always fails,, even I thonk that maybe its a memory problem, but in the laptop I have 8gb ram and the scrapper works fine, I will suggest to the developer allows another browser, for example, firefox instead chromium

Until now, I just realized that the solution works in laptops and in he pc desktops does not work

[Polliog]

Same issue on windows 11, with linux or windows 10 it works. The browser just crash after the navigating the page, maybe the problem is in the scrapemate/playwright library

[red40maxxer]

Running into the same issue on Windows 11. WSL works though

[TheLastCode-yt]

I had the same problem, via graphical interface it doesn't work at all, but you can run docker and do it via docker it will work
