To delete/remove the attribute and it's value of disabled="disabled" as the element is JavaScript enabled element you need to use WebDriverwait for the element to be visible and you can use either of the following solutions:

  • Using PartialLinkText:

    IWebElement element = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10)).Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.PartialLinkText("Click to Submit")));
((IJavascriptExecutor)driver).ExecuteScript("arguments[0].removeAttribute('disabled')", element);

  • Using CssSelector:

    IWebElement element = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10)).Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.CssSelector("a.btn.btn-success#SendRFQ")));
((IJavascriptExecutor)driver).ExecuteScript("arguments[0].removeAttribute('disabled')", element);

  • Using XPath:

    IWebElement element = new WebDriverWait(driver, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(10)).Until(ExpectedConditions.ElementIsVisible(By.XPath("//a[@class='btn btn-success' and @id='SendRFQ']")));
((IJavascriptExecutor)driver).ExecuteScript("arguments[0].removeAttribute('disabled')", element);

Try below code to remove attribute from element

IJavaScriptExecutor js = (IJavaScriptExecutor)driver;
js.ExecuteScript("document.querySelector('a.btn.btn-success').removeAttribute('disabled')");

P.S. Note that real user will not modify HTML DOM to make link enabled, so if you need your script to simulate user-like behavior you should find another approach to make element enabled...
