I solved the problem by following the steps below:

• Installed the stable version of Selenium PowerShell module which is at the time is 3.0.1. When I installed the latest version 4.x it was not working for some reason.
• To remove the installed version, use PowerShell commands to remove it with Force, delete the related folders, and kill all related sessions.
• In the installed module path, put the file chromedriver.exe in ...\PowerShell\Modules\Selenium\3.0.1\assemblies which is compatible with with the installed version of Chrome. Rename the existing one to be on the safe side.
• To get the compatible driver, check https://chromedriver.chromium.org/downloads.
• Kill the sessions, and try again.
