In some cases, you can use the JavascriptExecutor<\/strong> in Selenium to interact. Double-check your locator strategy to ensure it uniquely identifies the intended element. Using an incorrect locator can lead to the WebDriver not finding the element.<\/p>\n Ensure that the element is enabled for interaction. If it’s disabled, you won’t be able to interact with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Reason: The ElementNotInteractableException in Selenium typically occurs when you try to interact with a web element that cannot be interacted with.
