WebDriver opens Chrome with data:, stuck on address bar (Python Selenium)

Trying to open YouTube (or any other website) using Selenium in Python. When I run the program, a blank browser window pops up, with phrase data:, in the address bar, and it stays right there until timeout. What should I do to open a web page correctly?

Additional information:

• Chrome: Version 80.0.3987.87 (64-bit)
• ChromeDriver: Version 80.0.3987.16 (latest, said to be compatible with version of my Chrome)
• I did not place chromedriver.exe in the same directory with Chrome.
• Operating System: Windows 10

Sample Code:

from selenium import webdriver

driver = webdriver.Chrome(executable_path = r"C:\explicit\path\to\chromedriver.exe")
driver.get("https://www.youtube.com")
