i used other chrome drivers and it didnt work can anyone help?

Answer 1

The Answer already seems to be there in the logs.

This version of ChromeDriver only supports Chrome version 93 Current browser version is 114.0.5735.199 with binary path C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe

Download the latest chromedriver which supports the Chrome Browser version 114

Answer 2

Update Selenium version to 4.6 or above. Selenium Manager would automatically take care of downloading the matching version of ChromeDriver to execute the tests.

So your minimum code block will be:

ChromeOptions options = new ChromeOptions();
options.addArguments("--start-maximized");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(options);
