If your course included quizzes with Respondus Lockdown Browser or ProctorU enabled, these often appear in the new course with the expected “ … requires Lockdown Browser …” or “ … ProctorU …” in the quiz title, but the settings do not copy into the new course.
When copying Respondus Lockdown Browser or ProctorU quizzes, take the following steps in the new course:
Open each quiz.
Confirm or reset the Respondus and ProctorU settings.
If the course copied included assignments using an LTI, validate the integration in the new course and confirm any corresponding assignments in the new course.
