Anyone else hate Lockdown Browser?

So last night I tried to take my final for my polisci class that had to be taken on Lockdown Browser, but then I got a popup talking about how it "detected a VM (virtual machine)" which booted me off the exam.

I freaked out and I tried most if not all recommended solutions, like disabling things through Device Manager, temporarily disabling the anti-virus which may be mimicking a VM, etc.. And I'm certain I didn't install anything that has anything to do with VMs. Despite my efforts and restarting my computer multiple times I still got the same error and getting booted off.

Anyway, I failed my final which dropped my grade from a B to a C and it's been messing me up since. Even emailed prof and he said that there was nothing he could do, so. I'm especially irked by this cause I'm worried about my gpa and I was looking forward to transferring to a uni in the fall.

Has anyone else had this issue?

Could I Get In With a 2.45 gpa as a CSN Transfer Student?

I'm planning on transferring to UNR for Fall 2026 but I've been slacking a bit at CSN, and so I've got a 2.45 gpa, but I heard I could submit my ACT scores as an alternative which I got a 20 on. I know a lot of ppl like to joke about how UNR is the "University of no Rejection" but I just wanna know if that's actually true? Idk, probably a dumb question lmao.
