I don't know why it doesn't allow me to do that. But you can start a powershell instance and run it through powershell:

var process = new System.Diagnostics.Process();
process.StartInfo.WindowStyle = System.Diagnostics.ProcessWindowStyle.Hidden;
var chrome = Path.Combine(Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable("ProgramFiles(x86)"), @"Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe");

// use powershell
process.StartInfo.FileName = "powershell";
// set the Chrome path as local variable in powershell and run
process.StartInfo.Arguments = "$chrome='" + chrome  + @"'; & $chrome --headless --print-to-pdf='c:\Users\" + Environment.UserName + @"\desktop\myReport.pdf' https://google.com";
process.Start();
