Answer 1

The browser is automatically disposed once the variable of the driver is out of scope. So, to avoid quitting the browser, you need to set the instance of the driver on a global variable:

Dim driver As New ChromeDriver

Private Sub Use_Chrome()

driver.Get "https://www.google.com"
'  driver.Quit
End Sub
