Has anyone found a solution to this problem according to the documentation?
Yes the only way i found to install and use it properly was to show the repo from 2 months ago and install the version. Folder called:web-ui-e43a54f63c40171462ba99804a5df9ef7308a192
~~I successfully got it working by first modifying requirements.txt to use browser-use 0.1.37, running uv pip install -r requirements.txt, then changing it back to browser-use 0.1.40 and running uv pip install -r requirements.txt again.~~
~~Details are as follows:~~ ~~https://github.com/browser-use/browser-use/issues/994#issuecomment-2734107599~~

MainContentExtractor ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'main_content_extractor'
It's likely because you don't have MainContentExtractor installed. Try pip install MainContentExtractor
Check if you have all prerequisites installed. And, also, i recommend that to fix the problem ASAP, you can always go to thinking models and ask them for help. go to [aistudio.google.com] and use GEMINI 2.5 PRO

-
For
langchain_google_genaiModule:- Ensure that you have installed the module using the command:
