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?

This is actually infuriating, the hours I've wasted trying to get this to work. Adding and removing the extension I grew tired of it. It seems it only works once then it completely fails every other time.
