Similar to #142 but experiencing this in v4.8.0.

Can you try Cypress v7.3.0 https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/releases/tag/v7.3.0 where we have hopefully fixed this https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress/pull/16312

I get this issue with Cypress 8.7 running on a Linux instance. We use browser-actions/setup-chrome@latest step to install chrome version 86 but the cypress github action refuses to accept that there is a version of chrome installed. In fact it doesn't matter which version of chrome we install, it still refuses to accept there is a chrome instance to use.

This is a stale issue.

GitHub runners include Google Chrome and .github/workflows/example-chrome.yml demonstrates that Cypress finds the browser.

https://github.com/cypress-io/cypress-docker-images also offers Cypress Docker images with Chrome pre-installed.

For browsers installed by other means, such as through browser-actions/setup-chrome, it may be necessary to specify their location. See https://docs.cypress.io/guides/guides/launching-browsers#Launching-by-a-path

If there are any ongoing issues locating Chrome, please open a new issue to investigate.
