/delete-driver /uninstall /force /reboot Available starting in Windows 10, version 1607. Delete driver package from the driver store. /uninstall - uninstall driver package from any devices using it. /force - delete driver package even when it is in use by devices. /reboot - reboot system if needed to complete the operation. The extent to which the Driver Manager can emulate Unicode support for ANSI ODBC drivers is limited by the conversions possible between the Unicode data and the local code page. Data loss is possible when the Driver Manager is converting from Unicode to the local code page. To access the methods of the IWebDriver interface, an instance/driver object from IWebDriver should be created. The complete list of methods for iWebDriver comes up as soon as you press the dot.

Setup
ChromeDriver is a separate executable that Selenium WebDriver uses to control Chrome. It is maintained by the Chromium team with help from WebDriver contributors. If you are unfamiliar with Selenium WebDriver, you should check out the Selenium site.
Follow these steps to setup your tests for running with ChromeDriver:
- Ensure Chromium/Google Chrome is installed in a recognized location
Jdbc Driver Syntax
ChromeDriver expects you to have Chrome installed in the default location for your platform. You can also force ChromeDriver to use a custom location by setting a special capability.
- Download the ChromeDriver binary for your platform under the downloads section of this site
- Help WebDriver find the downloaded ChromeDriver executable
- include the ChromeDriver location in your PATH environment variable
- (Java only) specify its location via the webdriver.chrome.driver system property (see sample below)
- (Python only) include the path to ChromeDriver when instantiating webdriver.Chrome (see sample below)

Controlling ChromeDriver's lifetime
The ChromeDriver class starts the ChromeDriver server process at creation and terminates it when quit is called. This can waste a significant amount of time for large test suites where a ChromeDriver instance is created per test. There are two options to remedy this:
1. Use the ChromeDriverService. This is available for most languages and allows you to start/stop the ChromeDriver server yourself. See here for a Java example (with JUnit 4):
Python:
2. Start the ChromeDriver server separately before running your tests, and connect to it using the Remote WebDriver.
Terminal:
Java:
