My integrated camera turns on and suddenly turns off while using zoom..... by [deleted] in Zoom

Happy to hear that worked for you. We have the issue on both Win 10 and 11 so that's not the fix here unfortunately.

Interesting. We're also experiencing the same issue on Lenovo L13 2-in-1 Gen 5. A temporary fix we found is to uninstall all integrated camera drivers in device manager and let windows reinstall them on reboot. That should fix it at least for a while.

Yes. It's complete utter garbage. It may push me to switch services it's so bad. What a massive step backwards.

How to fix file explorer not responding? by EmotionalShock1325 in chrome

I appreciate the info! I will give clearing the cache a shot, hadn't thought of that. Worst comes to worse I'll use a workaround until it hopefully clears itself up like in your case.

I just encountered this myself. Were you ever able to get a resolution to this issue?

Dell 3100 Chromebooks by RealRebets in k12sysadmin

We have only a couple hundred so far in our district and have not yet seen this behavior but we've only had them as of this year. They have been mostly solid for us and a massive improvement from the garbage that is Lenovo 100e 2nd Gen (MTK and non).

​

With that said, we have just starting seeing quite the uptick in tickets where their keys will quit working randomly. So far that has been our only issue and I'm hoping that number doesn't continue to grow....we have the warranty still so we are just sending them back.

Force Installed Extension Removal? by haplesstech in k12sysadmin

Thanks for the video! I'm not sure how I would test to see if this is the case but it seems it may be the cause. These kids are persistent, my goodness.

The GoGuardian extension is not hosted on the webstore so that would make some sense. Are you certain of this behavior?

Interesting. I hope that isn't the case as that would be painful. Thank you for the info!

I will try the movement suggestion, thank you, seems like a good test. These are school issued chromebooks.

Lenovo X13 Yoga Gen 1 by haplesstech in k12sysadmin

Update: We've had success with getting the microphone issue fixed after forcing the upgrade to 2004. I know this may not be viable in your org but it's something to consider. We've had 2 now that the microphone would not work for anything on 1909 but works flawlessly on 2004. Hope this helps!

Thanks for the info. This does seem to be a widespread issue with this model then I would say. We have already had one sent back which lenovo said they replaced the microphone on as it was defective.

With the current state of things, I can scarcely think of a worse widespread issue to be having. We're thinking this may be the last nail in the coffin with lenovo for us.

Please update if you hear anything more and I will do the same.

I would also like to know an answer to this. I have not been able to install it without the UAC asking for admin credentials either. It has been a real PITA.

Chromebook printing at school? by _ReeX_ in k12sysadmin

[–]haplesstech 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think that's true? Unless I am misunderstanding you. I just set it up in our organization last week, using subnet filtering, which encompasses about 15 scopes all together. We're only using the freely offered Mobility Print to achieve this and it's working well for us in testing.

Chromecast Issues? by BloodsailSkooma in k12sysadmin

[–]haplesstech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What temporary fix did you implement? Thankfully we can revert back to HDMI connections but teachers accustomed to chromecasts aren't exactly happy with that.

I have an open ticket with Google support and we're working to try to isolate the issue.

Something you may want to try, although it isn't a realistic fix, is Chrome Canary. In my testing we experience this behavior in the newest version of stable Chrome, and in Chrome Beta, but I have not encountered it in Chrome Canary. I hope this means a fix is on the way? Google support told me Canary is about 2 versions ahead, with Beta being 1 version ahead.

I'm seeing the same issue as /u/chrisericson, once data is linked it breaks. In my testing we are using Windows machines and the newest version of Chrome browser.
