should the file "chromedriver.exe" also be in the folder "\pvd\Scripts\"?

Yes, it must be, otherwise it won't work.

You have Google Chrome and Python installed on your computer. If you don't have it, install it, otherwise you have a problem somewhere else on your computer that is not allowing you to download information from the IMDb site. Maybe there are some settings or something else that is blocking you from downloading information from the IMDb site.

Do you see any python script txt log files in the Scripts\Tmp folder.

I can see from the log file that there is no internet connection, which is why it is not transferring any information to you.

Below is the Scripts - What scripts do you need file, which has all the necessary folders and files that you must have in the Scripts folder of the PVD program, except for the chromedriver.exe file, which can be found at the links below in the quote section.

Chromedriver:
1. chromedriver   win32   https://storage.googleapis.com/chrome-for-testing-public/134.0.6998.88/win32/chromedriver-win32.zip
2. chromedriver   win64   https://storage.googleapis.com/chrome-for-testing-public/134.0.6998.88/win64/chromedriver-win64.zip

Unzip the Scripts - What scripts do you need file and then check if you also have all the files in your folder at D:\Game\pvd\Scripts\ plus the chromedriver.exe file. If you are missing something, first make a copy of the original Scripts folder, then add the missing files to the original Scripts folder or copy the entire Scripts folder from the Scripts - What scripts do you need file. Then you will see if it works for you, because for me it normally transfers all the information to the PVD database.

Here is an updated, modified and adapted IMDB_Movies_[EN][Selenium]-v4.psf , where only one custom field is used in certain parts of the code, rather than multiple duplicated custom fields, which then do not transfer the correct information or, possibly, do not transfer any information at all. However, some parts of the code or redundant parts of the code log files are blocked, because they are not used at all and only unnecessarily increase the size of the script. However, parts of the code are unblocked and should be, because they only slow down the script and a pop-up window appears with the Too many faulty attempts to internet connection notification

other archives are obtained.

PVD must be running in debug mode, otherwise the log file is empty and add this below to the portable.bat file.

start viddb.exe -portable -debug

As far as I can see, you are using IMDB_Movie_[EN][Selenium]-v4, which is missing the updates that are causing these issues.

You should use my updated IMDB_Movies_[EN][Selenium]-v4 script and SeleniumPVDbScriptsConfig-v4.ini file. Maybe then you won't have these issues.
