🚫 Work laptop restrictions – Fixing compatibility issues
✅ Common issues on work devices
| Blocked action | Possible restriction |
|---|---|
| Camera/mic not accessible | OS-level permission or browser blocked by admin |
| Screen sharing fails | Browser flag or OS setting restricted |
| Browser updates disabled | Company policy restricts installing latest versions |
✅ What you can do
- Use a personal laptop instead, if available — this avoids IT-imposed restrictions entirely.
- Check browser and system permissions
- Enable access for camera, microphone, and screen sharing
- Follow the steps in these articles to enable:
- Test in Chrome, Edge, or Firefox (latest version)
- Contact your IT team
- Ask if restrictions like screen recording blocks, audio input filters, or group policies are in place
