Description

Since I'm a yahoo finance premium user. I have been logging-in with the "Ticker" function to get all of the possible data for each ticker. However, recently when I run the same script. I am getting "**Invalid credentials provided. Please check username and password and try again.**" error. This issue was not happening before when I was running a code like this:

from yahooquery import Ticker
from datetime import datetime
from selenium import webdriver

stocks = ['msft', 'aapl', 'amzn', 'ge', 'bb', 'tsla','brk-a','goog', 'intc','meta','amc','amd','nvda','mmat','ape','tsm']

ticker = Ticker(stocks ,username='redacted', password='redacted')

I have changed my password for yahoo finance multiple times and have checked for any syntax or spelling errors. I am running the most recent chromium web driver with selenium. I also installed the older versions of yahooquery [premium] and selenium to see if it fixes the issue and nothing changed.

This issue started very recently (maybe from 4/17/23). I was using the same script before, and it would log me in as the premium user without an issue. Can you please help me with this and resolve this issue?
