In light of this, you might desire to obtain a compatible operating system to take your LockDown Browser-required exams. Be aware that Microsoft indicates that once disabled, "S" mode can never be re-enabled on the device. If you are running "S Mode," be aware that it is not a compatible operating system for LockDown Browser.Īlthough we cannot provide specifics on how to disable "S" mode, the below link to the Microsoft FAQ indicates it is possible. In some cases, a computer running Windows "S" mode can also produce this same error message.

Then, on the page that appears, change the setting titled "choose where to get apps" to a value of "anywhere." After doing this, attempt to install LockDown Browser again. Windows Settings > Apps > Apps and features > Choose Where to get apps. You can also access this setting directly on your computer by navigating to: Click the link provided in the message, which reads "change my app recommendation settings." Since LockDown Browser isn't available in that store, you'll need to change the security setting. Instructions on how to do this can be found by logging on to Respondus Admin Area, and downloading the administrator guide titled "Managed Chromebooks.If you see the below message appear when trying to install LockDown Browser, this means your computer's security settings only permit you to install applications that are available via Microsoft's app store. With managed Chromebooks, students will need to have the necessary permissions to install Chrome extensions, or the extension will need to be pushed to their Chromebooks via the Google Admin Suite. To install the new extension to a student-owned Chromebook, students will need to use the regular LockDown Browser installation link for your school (they will NOT be able to search for the app directly from the Chrome web store.) The LockDown Browser installation link will direct students to the Chrome web store, at which point they should select “Add to Chrome” to install the LockDown Browser Extension. Any other method is unsupported, and will result in errors occurring when students attempt the exam via their Chromebook. You can add a timer, randomize questions and answers, allow multiple attempts, and align goals.

Respondus LockDown Browser® is a custom browser that locks down the testing environment within Blackboard. Choose to deliver the assessment using Respondus LockDown Browser alone, or include the Webcam. Once you enable LockDown Browser to be used for a quiz, the LockDown Browser for Chromebook quiz-level setting is also automatically enabled.just like how it's done with LockDown Browser for Windows and Mac. This profile-level setting can be disabled, if desired, and doing so will prohibit Chromebooks from being used for any exam that requires LockDown Browser. The LockDown Browser for Chromebook setting is enabled by default for all Respondus Server profiles. The LockDown Browser Chromebook extension also supports Respondus Monitor (except in Schoology), an automated proctoring system used at over 1,000 colleges and universities. This solution is for student-owned and also managed devices.
