    I have a Chromebook and it is not working...I have assignments due and it's saying it's not installed when it is...this is ridiculous

    Not sure why Arizona State uses this for a math placement test and this does NOT work!! I have tried 2 different computers and yet this thing says not installed. Pathetic

    thanks I thought it was just me: The SYSTEM Check verifies it is installed: Lockdown and video both. The ""CHROME I\NSTALLED" also varifies, yes, it is installed. When I go to the get started area it fails every time. - Any actionable conclusion?
