Proctorio Profile


About Proctorio Profiles

  • Proctorio Profiles allow you to save your preferred Proctorio exam and behavior settings in a profile that you can apply to other quizzes or exams with Proctorio.
  • Make sure you are using a supported browser (Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, Brave, or Opera) with the Proctorio extension.
    • Profiles can only be accessed from the computer they were originally saved from.
    • Clearing your browser history will remove saved profiles from your Saved Profiles list.
  • You can create as many profiles as you like. 
    • Produce consistently measured suspicion levels for similar types of assessments across courses. 
    • You can also preset your preferred behavior settings or adjust the behavior settings from within the Proctorio Review Center at anytime.
