Exam Access: Always access exams by navigating through your course page, not through reminders or calendars.
VPN & Antivirus: - Consider temporarily disabling real-time antivirus scanning - Temporarily disable VPN connections before taking the exam
Webcam setup: - You can change your webcam during the webcam check - Ensure your computer's camera privacy settings allow desktop apps access
Time & Location: Set your computer's time and time zone correctly before the exam
Internet connection: - If possible, use a wired ethernet connection or stay close to the Wi-Fi router - Close any other bandwidth-heavy applications during the exam
Before the exam: - Uninstall any third-party webcam apps to avoid interference - Disable or uninstall screen recording software like screencastify
Updates: Regularly check for and install LockDown Browser updates
Restart & Reinstall: A clean installation is enough to fix problems related to corrupted installations.
