How can I fix this error when chrome starts

After starting a chrome driver in java a SessionNotCreatedException is thrown by the application. This is the code:

System.setProperty("webdriver.chrome.driver", "D:\\Development\\Driver\\chromedriver.exe");
    WebDriver webDriver = new ChromeDriver();
    webDriver.get("https://google.com");

The exception:

Exception in thread "main" org.openqa.selenium.SessionNotCreatedException: Could not start a new session. Possible causes are invalid address of the remote server or browser start-up failure.

Build info: version: '4.0.0-beta-1', revision: '9c03156c2b' System info: host: 'DESKTOP-S9O6TAK', ip: '192.168.0.211', os.name: 'Windows 10', os.arch: 'amd64', os.version: '10.0', java.version: '1.8.0_261' Driver info: org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver Command: [null, newSession {desiredCapabilities=Capabilities {browserName: chrome}}] Capabilities {} at org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver.execute(RemoteWebDriver.java:635) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver.startSession(RemoteWebDriver.java:252) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver.(RemoteWebDriver.java:174) at org.openqa.selenium.chromium.ChromiumDriver.(ChromiumDriver.java:82) at org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver.(ChromeDriver.java:99) at org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver.(ChromeDriver.java:86) at org.openqa.selenium.chrome.ChromeDriver.(ChromeDriver.java:41) at de.antonbowe.fachecker.FAChecker.(FAChecker.java:57) at de.antonbowe.fachecker.FAChecker.main(FAChecker.java:63) Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException at org.openqa.selenium.remote.ProtocolHandshake.createSession(ProtocolHandshake.java:122) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.ProtocolHandshake.createSession(ProtocolHandshake.java:73) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.HttpCommandExecutor.execute(HttpCommandExecutor.java:153) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverCommandExecutor.invokeExecute(DriverCommandExecutor.java:153) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.service.DriverCommandExecutor.execute(DriverCommandExecutor.java:128) at org.openqa.selenium.remote.RemoteWebDriver.execute(RemoteWebDriver.java:620) ... 8 more

Process finished with exit code 1

I updated the chrome driver several times and tried other old projects. All dont work.

When I was using selenium-java version 4.0.0-beta-3 alone, it worked fine. But after I added the following additional dependencies to my project (per https://developers.google.com/gmail/api/quickstart/java), I got the same errors.

google-api-client 1.23.0
google-oauth-client-jetty 1.23.0
google-api-services-gmail v1-rev83-1.23.0

I downgraded my selenium-java to version 3.141.59. The error went away.
