I have a group of students up for national exams in computer science in late 
May. In Norway, high school students bring their own computers to the classroom 
and to their exams. One of my students has a PC with Windows 10 installed. She 
reports that she is unable to use the player object on her computer. 

We do not know what tasks they will have to do for their exams until the day of 
the exam, but previous exams have always contained one task where students are 
asked to incorporate sound or video in their application. In previous exams 
this task will have the students prepare a media file (sound or video) and use 
it for different purposes like a background track for a slide-show, a popUp 
window to show videos or as a timed soundtrack for an animation.

In situations where the player object may be visible, we can always use a 
browser-widget to complete the task. However, in situations where the end user 
should not be able to control the player object directly, or where the player 
object for other reasons needs to be invisible, this is not a solution for this 
particular student. 

Does anyone know if setting the dontuseQT to true will help? If not, are there 
any other option we can try? Or should we start transferring all her previous 
work, alongside LiveCode to one of our schools older laptops, in order to have 
her up and running in good time before her exam?

Regards

Tore Nilsen
