Selenium WebDriver - Element is not clickable at point

Question

I have an automation project using Selenium WebDriver in version 3.6 and the Chrome Driver. The software was working fine until it started to display the error

Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately.

unknown error: Element is not clickable at point (25, -9) (Session info: chrome=61.0.3163.100) (Driver info: chromedriver=2.31.488763 (092de99f48a300323ecf8c2a4e2e7cab51de5ba8),platform=Windows NT 6.1.7601 SP1 x86_64).

I'm using the .click () method to click on the element, and this always worked, I've never had any problems with the software running for months

Searching the internet I found methods that even worked like using .SendKey () and IJavaScriptExecutor to give a scroll to the element. But the point is I never had to do this ..

Could it be some bug in this version of Selenium? Maybe Chrome Driver?

This is caused by having Chrome version 61+ and not using the latest ChromeDriver.

Download the latest ChromeDriver (2.3.2) which "Fixes a bug where Chromedriver fails to click due to page scrolling changes in Chrome 61+".
