Bypassing GoGuardian on chromebook

GETTING PAST GOGUARDIAN (Temporarily) 😆

  1. Open task manager (search + esc)
  2. Find GoGuardian in the pop up. It looks like a little white shield on a blue background, at the time of writing
  3. Once you have found it, click on the one that is taking up the CPU. Then click "End process"
  4. Depending on your schools setup, there may be two. If so, also click the license one, and end that process.

NOTE: it is only temporary. I haven't found any more permanent options, so...

But hey, better than nothing.

I actually did notice that shortly after this was published, my school made it so you couldn't end tasks. They even blocked gists! What I'm doing now is just using bit browser to use stuff.

this only does it for 5 sec but if you put this into the bookmark bar and run it before goguardian reloads it will stay unblocked javascript:window.onbeforeunload=function(){return"";}

What exactly do you mean by bookmarks bar? Ok this thread is a year old but it's the only one I found that sues the task manager method. Thanks!

ctrl+shift+b to open/close the bookmark bar, if you still can't find it, ask google. it's also possible that your school has disabled javascript, there is a simple test, press ctrl+e, you should now be editting on the top of the page (don't try it on a new tab) type javascript:alert() and if nothing pops up it's blocked, also a shorter code is javascript:window.onbeforeunload=i=>1
