  How can a student or faculty member help to ensure that Examplify opens and closes as quickly as possible?

ExamSoft advises that Examplify users temporarily disable their anti-virus software and close all other applications before starting the assessment, in order to avoid technical errors from occurring.

When Examplify launches an assessment and a secure test-taking environment on a computer,

  • Other applications are being closed until the user exits the assessment;
  • Switching to another application is de-activated until the user exits the assessment;
  • The computer’s internet connection is de-activated until the user exits the assessment.

When Examplify ends an assessment and the secure test-taking environment on a computer,

  • Other applications closed by Examplify are re-opened;
  • The ability to switch to another application is re-activated;
  • The computer’s internet connection is re-established

Please note: When Examplify launches or concludes a secure test-taking environment on a computer, it is typical for this process to take between 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on what other applications were left running on the computer.
