The version of Lockdown Browser available in Rutgers Canvas is different from the version from other institutions or needed for certain exams offered by textbook publishers; each download file is tied to an institutional license or textbook publisher. If you need to use Lockdown Browser to take an exam or quiz in both Rutgers Canvas and another institution or through your online textbook as part of a partnership program, then you will need to install two versions of the application on your computer.
