Hi OA-6000,

Please try to update your Selenium.WebDriver.ChromeDriver package to latest version.

If it doesn't work, you could try to download chrome driver here: https://sites.google.com/a/chromium.org/chromedriver/, and unzip this file, then specify it through your code:

ChromeDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(@"C:\Users\Administrator\Documents\test");      // the directory of chromedriver.exe

Best Regards,
Dylan
