RuntimeError when using undetected_chromedriver

This is my script (it's the example you can find at https://github.com/ultrafunkamsterdam/undetected-chromedriver):

import undetected_chromedriver as uc
driver = uc.Chrome()
driver.get('https://nowsecure.nl')

I get this error:

RuntimeError       (note: full exception trace is shown but execution is paused at: <module>)

        An attempt has been made to start a new process before the
        current process has finished its bootstrapping phase.

        This probably means that you are not using fork to start your
        child processes and you have forgotten to use the proper idiom
        in the main module:

            if __name__ == '__main__':
                freeze_support()
                ...

        The "freeze_support()" line can be omitted if the program
        is not going to be frozen to produce an executable.   File "D:\Users\Mark\python scripts\test_2.py", line 2, in <module> (Current frame)
    driver = uc.Chrome()   File "<string>", line 1, in <module>

How do I solve this?
