How to avoid Test Interruptions and Timer Bug
Contents
✅ If your test ends early, skips sections or questions, or won’t load properly, please try the steps below.
1. Before starting
- Make sure to use a supported browser (Chrome recommended).
- Close other tabs/apps that might slow your device.
- Check you have a stable internet connection.
- Plug in your device or ensure at least 50% battery.
2. Make sure your Device clock is correct
- Check your System Date and Time.
- Look at the clock on your computer or device.
- Verify that the date and time match your current local time
2. Enable Automatic Time Settings
On Windows:
- Right-click the clock in the taskbar.
- Select Adjust date/time.
- Enable Set time automatically.
On Mac:
- Go to System Settings > General > Date & Time.
- Turn on Set time and date automatically.
3. Clear cached data
Open settings > Privacy > Clear browsing data.
- Select Cached images & files and Cookies/site data.
- Restart the browser.
4. Firewalls / Security software
- Some company or school networks block parts of the test.
- If you’re on work/school Wi-Fi and the test won’t load, Try switching to a home network or personal hotspot.
👉 If you see “blocked content” or endless loading, this is usually a firewall issue.
5. Browser extensions
- Extensions can interfere with test pages (especially ad blockers, VPNs, password managers, screen recorders, and privacy tools).
- Before starting:
- Open an Incognito/Private window (extensions are usually disabled there).
- Recommended: run the test with all extensions turned off.
6. Refresh your session
- Log out and back in.
- If prompted, refresh your browser or restart the app.
7. If problems continue
- Try a different browser or device.
- Restart your computer or mobile device.
- Switch to another network (different Wi-Fi or wired connection).
