Selenium webdriver – timed out

I'm using the Selenium library with the chromedriver on windows. When I run the code through IDLE python, everything happens as expected.
But when I run the code through KODI, it shows 'time out' error.

The site where I retrieve information via Selenium is very slow and takes a long time to load the page.

How to fix this error in KODI?

Code:

kodi 17 changing aeon nox menu color

starting fresh on kodi17 and I downloaded aeon nox. I wanted to change the color of the central and submenu to be blue, the problem I'm having is on kodi 16.1 I was able to do this without photoshop or any texture toold by changing the code on the 1080i as instructed by this website
http://www.dimitrology.com/2016/04/11/ko...a-notepad/

so i would go to C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\Kodi
navigate in addons>skin.aeon.nox.5>1080> and Right Click “Home.xml” file > Edit With Notepad++

so with kodi 17 it is a different path now I go to
~\AppData\Local\Packages\XBMCFoundation.Kodi_4n2hpmxwrvr6p\LocalCache\Roaming\Ko​​di\addons\ then when I repeat the same steps (going into addons folder, 1080i, right clicking home.xml and editing with notepad++ l it doesn't work anymore :/

if you guys have a better way to change the color, I could really use some help on this, im very new at skinning, but not very experienced at photoshop,.but with patience and time I'm hoping to get over this obstacle.
