This guide covers how to submit your exam, confirm proctoring has stopped, troubleshoot any issues, and remove the Honorlock extension.
Submitting Your Exam
-
Submit Manually: When finished, select the Submit Quiz button at the bottom of your assessment page.

-
Automatic Submission: If time runs out before you finish, your exam will submit automatically.

(Note: The exact button location or phrasing may vary depending on your learning platform, such as Canvas).
Confirming Proctoring Has Ended
Once your exam is submitted, proctoring usually stops automatically:
-
Honorlock Toolbar: The bottom toolbar (showing details, calculator, or recording status) will disappear.

-
Optional Survey: A voluntary survey may appear asking if you encountered technical issues. You can complete it or select Skip.

-
Confirmation Message: A screen showing "Thank you for using Honorlock!" will briefly appear, and the proctoring window will automatically close.
