To install the LockDown Browser, you can click on the link that says, “[Download Respondus LockDown Browser]”, on the quiz details page, or by visiting https://download.respondus.com/lockdown/download.php?id=964616552.. Clicking the link will open a new browser tab or window with information about LockDown Browser and a button that says "Install". Click on the "Install" button to begin. If you are on a Windows or Mac computer, the web browser you are using will determine how you proceed
from this point. Some browsers give you the option to “run” or “save” the
download and some only give you the option to save. If you get an option to
“run” it, select that option. Otherwise, click “save”, go to your “Downloads”
folder to locate a file that has a title that starts with LockDownSFX, and
double-click on it to start the installation. Mac users will also need to
download the file to their “Downloads” folder and double-click on it to begin
the installation.
