How to install and configure the Interview AiBox keyboard-event guard extension for a narrower set of Windows browser scenarios
Windows Keyboard Guard Extension
This extension is an extra compatibility path for Windows browser scenarios only. It is designed for a narrower set of cases where a browser page may still capture or detect keyboard events. Most users do not need it. Install it only when the default desktop-client path has already been checked and you still want extra protection around browser-side keyboard-event detection.
Bottom line first
The standard Interview AiBox desktop client already uses the stable shortcut path by default. This extension is only an extra protection layer for a narrower set of Windows browser cases.
When you actually need it
Good fit
You already completed self-check and still worry that the real Chrome or Edge interview page may capture keyboard events.
Usually unnecessary
The default desktop-client path is already stable, or the real issue comes from the input method, meeting app, permissions, sharing mode, or multi-monitor setup.
Not for this case
macOS users, non-browser scenarios, or issues unrelated to keyboard events do not need this extension.
Download the package
Download the Chrome / Edge package
Install this only if a Windows browser may still capture or detect keyboard events after the standard self-check flow. Most users do not need an extra extension.
Installation steps
Download and unzip the package
After download, unzip the full package and keep the folder intact.
Open the extensions page
Use chrome://extensions/ in Chrome or edge://extensions/ in Edge.
Turn on Developer mode
Enable Developer mode in the top-right corner.
Choose Load unpacked
Select the unzipped folder. After installation you should see Interview AiBox Windows Compatibility Helper.
Pin it to the toolbar
Pin the extension so you can quickly verify the current configuration before an interview.
Refresh or reopen the target tab
After installation, refresh the target Chrome / Edge tab or reopen the page so the new configuration is fully applied.
The screenshot above shows the browser extensions page. The intended flow is: turn on Developer mode, choose Load unpacked, select the unzipped extension folder, and pin the extension to the toolbar.
Recommended configuration
The default setup is usually enough
In most cases, you can install the extension, refresh the target tab, and start using it without extra changes. Unless you really need custom key behavior, it is better not to modify settings beyond language.
- Keep the language on
Autofirst, unless you prefer a fixed language - Start with the default
Ctrlscope and only change it when needed - Keep the text-field option off unless you explicitly need it
- After changing settings, use self-check tools to verify keyboard-event detection behavior
- Then rehearse once more on the real interview platform
What you will see in the popup
Compatibility Mode
Controls whether the current browser page should use the extension behavior.
Language
Supports Auto, English, and įŽäŊä¸æ so users in different regions can switch directly.
Ctrl Scope
Supports left Ctrl, right Ctrl, or both. In most cases, the default setup is enough.
Text-Field Behavior
Controls whether inputs and editable areas use the same setting. Off by default is safer.
This screenshot shows the installed popup UI. Start by checking whether compatibility mode is enabled, whether the language matches your preference, whether the Ctrl scope is still on the default value, and whether the text-field option remains off.
If you want to disable or remove it
- Turn off compatibility mode in the popup first
- Then disable or remove it from the browser extensions page
- After removal, Interview AiBox still continues on the default desktop-client path. This does not affect macOS users or the normal product flow
Practical advice
Refresh the tab first
After installation, refresh or reopen the target Chrome or Edge tab so the extension can fully apply to the current page.
Verify in self-check tools
Use self-check tools to verify keyboard-event detection behavior before you return to the real interview platform.
Avoid over-tuning
If the default desktop-client path is already stable, avoid depending on the extension long term. The default setup is usually enough.
