Deadlines not working? Here's how to fix it

Most issues with Exam Deadline Tracker are small and fixable in seconds. Work through these in order.

1. The tool won't load

Reload the page, or open it in a fresh tab. If an extension blocks scripts, try private (incognito) mode — Exam Deadline Tracker needs JavaScript, which is on by default in every modern browser.

2. A file won't open or upload

Check the format and size. Exam Deadline Tracker accepts text and data inputs as needed and supports large files. If your file is larger, try trimming it on your device first.

3. Processing is slow

Exam Deadline Tracker does the work locally, so browser memory matters. Close unused tabs, restart the browser if needed, and try once more.

4. The output does not look right

Reset to the default settings and redo the task. Often a single setting mismatch causes the problem — starting clean fixes it.

5. Nothing downloads

Check your browser's download location and pop-up/file settings. Many browsers quietly block automatic downloads from new sites.

Still stuck?

Try a different current browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Edge). The tool behaves identically everywhere, so a fresh environment usually resolves the last edge cases.

Verdict

Nine out of ten problems with Exam Deadline Tracker are solved by a reload, a smaller file, or a private window.

The file may exceed the supported large files, or be a format outside text and data inputs as needed.

Why is Deadlines slow?

Processing is local, so browser memory matters. Close unused tabs and try again.
