start "" "C:\Program Files (x86)\Respondus\LockDown Browser\LockDownBrowser.exe"
% Spams starting the file browser every second. For me, this resulted in being able to have access to my filesystem and essentially do what I want. Respondus does actively shutdown chrome, task manager and command prompt, but it does NOT shut down Microsoft Edge (Microsofts web browser) which would allow me to get answers during my exam. Additionally, because it does not stop Bash or Linux subsystem for windows, I can make a script that will continually open the file explorer so I can switch focus between the exam and my computer.
