To take the exam, you need to download **Safe Exam Browser (SEB)** on the computer you plan to use for the test. It is essential to take a **practice test (Demo/Læst prufupróf)** to ensure everything works properly on exam day. Ideally, you should download the browser and complete the practice test a few days before the exam, so there’s enough time to assist anyone who might need help — it’s not good to spend part of the exam time on technical setup.


**Please note that the minimum operating system version for Mac computers is macOS 12.1 **— the browser cannot run on older versions.


**Be aware that the computer may use more power than usual** — therefore, we recommend having your charger with you during the exam so that you can charge your device if needed.


**Sometimes, problems occur when starting the exam, causing a red screen to appear. We recommend closing all programs and browser tabs before entering the exam to prevent this error**.


**We also recommend removing any older versions of SEB before installing a new one, as issues have occurred when multiple versions are installed on the same computer.**

Find the SafeExam application in “Applications” and drag it to the Trash, or right-click and select “Move to Bin.”  
After that, empty the Trash.
