Did you try to setup the Driver Resolve Strategy? new DriverManager().SetUpDriver(new ChromeConfig(), VersionResolveStrategy.MatchingBrowser);

Hi,

If the "Browser and version i.e. Chrome and V 86.0.4240.75" are installed in the system and the WebDrivermanager is downloading the "chromedriver" version i.e. "103.0.5060.53".

Please: If the drivers are successuflly download previously the "VersionResolveStrategy.MatchingBrowser", will work.

There are cases where the previous version of browsers have to used or run in VM or other machines for the first time and it is not working.
