I have taken your own code and executed it adding the argumentexecutable_path as follows:

• Code Block:

  from selenium import webdriver
  
  with webdriver.Firefox(executable_path=r'C:\Utility\BrowserDrivers\geckodriver.exe') as driver:
      driver.get("http://google.com")
      print("Page Title is : %s" %driver.title)
      driver.quit()
  

• Console Output:

  Page Title is : Google

As a thumb rule always follow the configuration matrix from the GeckoDriver, Selenium and Firefox Browser compatibility chart
