Describe the Bug
I had to take a test on my University’s elearning platform (Moodle), and when I tried to start SEB, it showed an error message saying that «0 internal and 0 external displays were detected» (screenshot below)
Steps to Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Install SEB (started on version 3.2.0, I tried version 3.1.1 and it worked)
- Try to take a test where the config locks the amount of displays to either 1, 2 or 3.
- See error
Expected Behavior
SEB should detect the display and start the test with no errors.
Screenshots
Version Information
- OS: Windows 10 Professional, Version 21H2 (OS Build 19044.1348)
- SEB Version 3.3.1.388
Additional Context
I am using a laptop (ASUS ROG Strix GL703VD) with an i7-7700HQ, a GTX 1050 and 16GB of RAM, if that is of any interest.
I also found an error on the log, found on %LOCALAPPDATA%\SafeExamBrowser\Logs
. I’m attaching the log, in case it helps.

Could you please try to reset the WMI repository: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/ask-the-performance-team/wmi-rebuilding-the-wmi-repository/ba-p/373846
For Windows Vista , Windows 7 , Windows Server 2008, and Windows Server 2008 R2 , you can run winmgmt /verifyrepository from a command prompt.
If repository is found to be inconsistent:
Winmgmt /salvagerepository
Note this command will take the content of the inconsistent repository and merge it into the rebuilt repository if it is readable
If the above doesn’t work, then run:
Winmgmt /resetrepository
@dbuechel I encountered the same issue while running the beta SEB for Windows in a Virtual Box VM (latest VB).
FYI: In an Administrator CMD prompt both winmgmt /verifyrepository
and winmgmt /salvagerepository
returned «WMI repository is consistent»
Yes, in VMs the check fails for some reason. Hence we added the option to ignore validation errors in the configuration.

I ended up formatting my PC (for other reasons), and today I installed SEB again (the latest version) and it worked, on the same PC, so I guess it had something to do with Windows files or something like that…
I’m keeping this issue opened, because I’ve seen people with the same issue above, so you can continue troubleshooting the same problem without creating a new issue.
Either way, thank you for your help, and if it happens again, I’ll try that and reply here
Thanks for the update, @rui2015. Glad to know you were able to make it work, albeit with having to reset your entire machine. Yes, it must be some configuration or system component which can get corrupted. Most unfortunately, we had no luck thus far in pinning down the root cause.
We were able to gain more information, it namely appears to be the case that this error can be caused by a specific display driver from Windows («PnP-Monitor Lock (Standard)»), see #341.
Hello,
I’m facing the same problem

What I’ve done so far:
- reinstalled the application
- searched for the driver «PnP-Monitor Lock (Standard)» (under devices -> DESKTOP-3S74I5P -> monitor) without results
- ran in an Administrator CMD prompt
winmgmt /verifyrepository
andwinmgmt /salvagerepository
, but both returned «WMI repository is consistent»
Note
I’m currently running Windows 11 Pro with Windows Subsystem for Linux enabled.
@dbuechel any new ideas?
Thank you so much
Thanks for the information, @FrassettoN. We have a testing device where the issue apparently can be reproduced, I hope that I can have a look at it in the coming weeks. Until now, the assumption was that the issue has something to do with the display driver mentioned above, but if that isn’t the case on your machine, then we’re basically back to zero…
Glad to help. I have installed version 3.1.1.250 (from CISIA website) and it works perfectly. Maybe this could help you finding the bug…
I have installed version 3.1.1.250 (from CISIA website) and it works perfectly.
That’s because the display monitoring was a new feature which we introduced in version 3.2.0 😉
That’s because the display monitoring was a new feature which we introduced in version 3.2.0 😉
Yeah, yeah, I know. It was more a tip for those who will encounter this problem a few days before a test 😂
Hi @dbuechel, are you keeping this open because of the VM display detection issue? Though, it would be nice to get fixed from my personal perspective, I seriously doubt it’s hampering many (real) exam takers… Regards, Jeroen
@jeroenhabets Yes exactly. I’ll attempt to fix the problem with the display driver mentioned above once I have time to look at our testing device, but it may well be that we’ll have to classify this as «won’t fix» for the moment. I thus far was unfortunately not able to reproduce the issue.
I have to mark this as won’t fix for the moment. I was unable to get to the root cause of the issue (I still suspect some issue in the .NET Framework / WMI, possibly related to the display driver mentioned above) and also failed to find a solution or workaround to the problem. I furthermore can only reproduce the issue on one particular device, and only when I keep the laptop lid shut directly after starting the machine.
Hello everyone,
I have the same problem when i use the original driver AMD Radeon(TM) Vega 11 Graphics.
2022-08-12_13h14m45s_Runtime.log
When I use the generic microsoft driver I no longer have the problem and SEB starts correctly.
According to the log, you do not have the same issue:
2022-08-12 13:14:55.792 [06] - INFO: Validating display configuration...
2022-08-12 13:14:55.807 [06] - INFO: [DisplayMonitor] Detected active, external display 'DISPLAY\LEN62B6\5&3bac39b&0&UID268_0' connected via 'HDMI'.

2022-08-12 13:14:55.807 [06] - ERROR: Display configuration is not allowed!
See the second to last line: Detected external display but only internal displays are allowed!
You’re right!
Should I open a new thread?
It appears that you’re using an external display, but the configuration allows only internal displays. Is that correct?
No. I’m using a normal desktop pc with a single monitor.
The problem is that when I use the official video card driver I encounter this problem. If I use a generic microsoft driver I have no problem.
I’m using a normal desktop pc with a single monitor
Exactly, that is an external monitor, only laptop / notebook computers have internal monitors. The configuration you’re trying to use prohibits the usage of external monitors, thus you won’t be able to use that setup unless someone changes the configuration itself to allow the usage of external monitors.
What I don’t explain is: why don’t I have problems if I use the generic microsoft driver?
Why don’t I have problems if I use the generic microsoft driver?
That indeed is a good question. Could you provide some screen shots / photos and other details of the exact setup that you’re using?
@dbuechel hi
I’m having a similar problem
Actually I’m using Mettl’s MSB which in backend SEB.
I used the same PC for last semester exam and it worked well. But now my college instructed my to update the software (Mettl MSB) after which I getting 0 internal and 0 external displays detected error.
I have attached the screenshot and log for your reference.
Note: My Graphic Driver is Intel UHD 550 and monitor Driver is Generic Non-PnP Monitor.
2022-10-22_19h41m46s_Runtime.log.txt
Thanks in advance
@hunterz-killer We cannot help you with MSB, that’s another product and you’d need to contact its manufacturers if you have issues with it. According to the screenshots above, you’re trying to use a custom build, is that correct?
@hunterz-killer We cannot help you with MSB, that’s another product and you’d need to contact its manufacturers if you have issues with it. According to the screenshots above, you’re trying to use a custom build, is that correct?
Yes, you are correct it seems to a custom build but i couldn’t confirm it.
I have reached the MSB support team but couldn’t solve it.
Is there any possibility or things I can check with to solve the issue.
Apart from the driver issue mentioned above, we unfortunately do not have any indications of what the underlying issue could be. We didn’t encounter the problem ourselves thus far (apart from the special case above), so there’s really not too much we can do until we get a reliable way to reproduce the issue meaningfully.
So, Guys who are facing the above mentioned error please follow the steps below:-
-
open this link -> https://www.entechtaiwan.com/util/moninfo.shtm
-
download the software
-
install it and open it
-
go on top left click on file option and click on create Imf file and save it
-
once done remember the location you saved that file on.
-
now go to system settings,then go to update and security and go to recovery and click restart now
-
when you are in recovery click on troubleshoot and select advanced options and select startup settings
-
on the new window opened (if it ask you to select account then select your account) after that press 7 on your keyboard and your
computer may restart -
now go to device manager, then drop down the monitor tab, then right click on the «generic non-pnp monitor» and click update driver
-
now select «browse my computer drivers» and then click «let me pick» then click on have disk.
-
now click on «browse» and then select the imf file we saved in starting and once it is installed let the device manager refresh itself.
-
now again right click on what so ever name is there in place of «generic non-pnp monitor» and go to update driver but this time click on select driver automatically
-
once it is done just run msb again and check the error must get solved ❤️✌️
Solved by @hunterz-killer after a long communication with him 😃👍
Im having the same issue on my laptop

Q1. I have installed Safe Exam Browser and downloaded the configuration file from school’s Moodle site, but nothing happens, or Safe Exam Browser isn’t running after I try to run the configuration file. What should I do?
If your default application for the configuration is not set to Safe Exam Browser, please follow the steps below to correct it. You may also try to reinstall/repair the Safe Exam Browser to correct the file association.
- Right click on the configuration file, and select “Property”.
2. If you are not able to find “Safe Exam Browser” under “Other options”, click “More apps”.
3. Click “Look for another app on this PC”
4. By default, you will see folders listed under “C:\Program Files\”. Double click on “Safe Exam Browser”, “Application”, select “Safe Exam Browser”, then click “Open”.
5. Make sure the application for “Opens with:” is now changed to “Safe Exam Browser”, then click “OK”
Q2. Safe Exam Browser is not able to run properly or crashes after running the configuration file.
- Before you try any methods listed below, try install the full bundle version of Safe Exam Browser from Safe Exam Browser – Download Latest Releases.
Currently, the version that is supported by school’s Moodle site is version 3.1.1, the direct download link: https://sourceforge.net/projects/seb/files/seb/SEB_3.1.1/SEB_3.1.1.250_SetupBundle.exe/download

In this case, you will need to uninstall the application from your computer.
