As the title says, chromedriver was working great for me when Chrome browser was at v92.0.4515.107 but the nthe Chrome MacOS security release of 92.0.4515.131 was pushed out and driver would not start up. The same for the now released Chrome browser v92.0.4515.159 

Is there some way to make it work or is there a new driver release coming for this latest iteration of browser v92?

Any help would be great
Martin

I'd suggest re-downloading ChromeDriver from its official release site (https://chromedriver.storage.googleapis.com/index.html?path=92.0.4515.107/) and try again. On Windows, it may also be worth checking the event logs if chromedriver.exe fails to start.

Try to add the option to disable gpu and run again:
chrome_options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
chrome_options.add_argument("--disable-gpu")

Thank you for your response. Tried below code but no luck.

WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
ChromeOptions chromeOptions = new ChromeOptions();
chromeOptions.addArguments("--disable-gpu");
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(chromeOptions);

Error: org.openqa.selenium.WebDriverException: Timed out waiting for driver server to start.
