Message: 'chromedriver' executable needs to be in PATH.

I followed the steps as described. First I cloned the repository with
git clone https://github.com/timgrossmann/instagram-profilecrawl.git

After this I downloaded the chromedriver, chrome version 78. For mac64 (I checked that my chrome browser actually is version 78). After this I opened the .zip file in the 'assets' folder of the cloned resository and unpacked the .zip file, as described by the Read_me file. Therefore, there is a chromedriver.exe file placed in the assets folder of the project.

However. If I run
python3 crawl_profile.py doodlejor

I get the following ERROR:

Traceback (most recent call last):

I have no Idea why this error occurs. I tried installing chromedriver with homebrew instead in different places but it does not seem to help. Can you please shed some light on my issue? Thanks in advance.
