How to disallow the user of developer mode for Chromebook management

To avoid students/clients being able to inspect and edit the browser extension you will need to disallow the ability to use Developer mode. If you follow the steps below we will show you how to disable the Developer mode.

Students/Clients can possibly alter the code of the extension if the mode is enabled, so it is safer to make sure the settings are disabled.

Step 1: Access your Workspace (Google Admin Console) console:

https://admin.google.com 

Step 2: Select Devices > Chrome > Settings > Users & browsers

Step 3: Select the correct OU to enable/disable the developer mode setting for the users in the OU.

Step 4: Once the OU is selected on the right-hand side under User & browser settings, scroll down till you find User Experience. In this section, you will find Developer Tools

Step 5: Under Developer Tools, change the option from "Always allow the use of built-in developer tools" to "Never allow the use of built-in developer tools"

Change the option from "Always allow the use of built-in developer tools" to "Never allow the use of built-in developer tools"

Step 6: Select Save on the top right.

You have now disabled the use of the developer console, therefore, stopping any student/client from altering the MG application by inspecting or using the developer mode.
