Pearson Vue - Online Exam Issues - Camera Issue

Hi,

I had an exam scheduled today. But I was not able to begin the test as I had the same problem as stated on this question: https://trainingsupport.microsoft.com/en-us/mcp/forum/all/pearson-vue-online-exam-issues/a0d8020c-e37e-419a-b68c-2954bd0a710f

When I did a pre-exam check, everything was Okay - mic/sound check, internet speed check, and camera access check.

By exam date, I tried logging in 15 minutes before the exam. I opened the OnVue app. On the first screen, the same tests as the pre-exam check was made - mic/sound check, internet speed check, and camera access check - and all tests were green. After it was confirmed that all 3 checks are good, I was asked to confirm my age, to take a photo of my self and my work station. After that I was brought to a screen with a pane showing myself being recorded and I started waiting for the proctor.

I waited but no proctor was assigned to me 30 minutes after the scheduled exam start time. I closed the window and checked if everything is okay - internet access and my computer did not freeze.

Seeing that everything is fine, I logged back into the application. I entered the same access code I used as the first log in. I was asked to confirm my age, and take a photo of myself and my work station - this time I was able re-use the same photos I took the first time. And I was brought to the screen showing myself being recorded and waited for about 5 seconds before a proctor contacted me. She told me she cannot see me. I told her (we were speaking with each other - mic is working) I can see myself on the screen and I did all the pre-exam checks, etc. But since she cannot see me, she told me to close the application and check the firewall is off.

I confirmed that Firewall was Off and that on my privacy settings, OnVue is allowed to access my camera.

After confirming that firewall is turned off, I tried logging in back to onVue. However, I can no longer do so as my access code is now invalid.

I contacted the customer service to raise a ticket and told me that I should receive a confirmation mail that a ticket is raised but I still have not received the confirmation e-mail.

Can someone please assist me on rescheduling the exam. I would appreciate it If someone can provide me the confirmation e-mail as well.

Thanks!

Hi Marlon Nikko Fojas,

 

As per the update we got “Upon review of the registration, I can confirm the exam has been canceled. The candidate has scheduled and taken their exam.

 

We shall close, lock, and mark as answered as no further action required from our end, feel free to open a new thread if anything requires assistance.
