✅ Common Causes and Fixes
| What Might Be Wrong | What You Can Do |
|---|---|
| Browser extensions blocking WebRTC | Disable extensions like ad blockers, VPNs, or privacy tools (e.g., uBlock, Ghostery, DuckDuckGo) temporarily. |
| Site permissions denied for screen sharing | Go to your browser settings and ensure Screen share, Camera, and Microphone permissions are enabled for the site. |
| Using an outdated browser version | Update your browser to the latest version. WebRTC compatibility is best on updated browsers. |
| Browser privacy settings too strict | Reset privacy/security settings to default or allow screen capture for the interview site. |
| Antivirus or firewall interfering with screen sharing | Temporarily disable or whitelist the application/site in your antivirus or firewall settings. |
| Multiple browsers or tabs conflicting | Close any duplicate tabs or other video conferencing tools running in the background. |
| Not using a supported browser | Use Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Firefox for best compatibility with WebRTC. |
| Insecure site (HTTP) blocking access | Ensure you are accessing the interview via a secure (HTTPS) URL. |
- Restart your browser and rejoin the session
- Try screen sharing in incognito/private mode to bypass extensions
- Use a different supported browser or device
