Selenium UnreachableBrowserException - Java

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver","D:/chromedriver.exe");
        WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();   
        driver.navigate().to("https://link");
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("#username")).sendKeys("id");
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("#password")).sendKeys("pass");
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("#clientName")).sendKeys("name");
        driver.findElement(By.cssSelector("#submitButton")).click();
        System.out.println("Okay !");

I set property for Chrome Driver. When I run it gives an error. (Below) I searched a lot but didn't found any solution.

I have tried these:

  1. 32/64 bit drivers.
  2. Run it as administrator.
  3. Creating a Try/Catch block.
  4. Other drivers. (Like Operadriver.exe) (Result: Same error)
Solution
