C# wpf web control

is any way to open a web browser(visible?) in specific browser and do action like clic button, search etc. i try 

WebBrowser web = new WebBrowser();
web.Navigate(new Uri("https://www.google.com/"));

but i didnt see it. I too know i can do something like that

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("chrome.exe","http://www.google.com");

but how then make action there control it? Or the only way is open browse in wpf and show it on some king of window.

The best place to actually start learning how to utilize the different Class Controls at our disposal from the .NET environment is reading their documentation!

WebBrowserClass

They show a relative simple example of how to achieve what you want, with the creation of the webbrowser in XAML. In this XAML, they define a TextBox so you can introduce your absolute path, but also a button to perform the search when you click on it. 

<Grid x:Name="MainGrid">
    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
        <RowDefinition Height="Auto"/>
        <RowDefinition Height="*"/>
    </Grid.RowDefinitions>
    <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal" HorizontalAlignment="Center">
            <TextBox x:Name="addressTextBox" Width="200" />
            <Button Click="Button_Click">Go</Button>
        </StackPanel>
    <WebBrowser Grid.Row="1" x:Name="myWebBrowser" />
</Grid>

I changed the XAML part a bit, so you don't have your WebBrowser with limited Height and instead have it occupied most of the screen real estate.

PS. In all honesty i cannot pinpoint why your code-behind implementation on the WebBrowser is not working though.
