Google Chrome versions 42+, Mozilla Firefox versions 52+, and Microsoft Edge don't support NPAPI-type plug-ins, including Java plug-ins and many media browser plug-ins. Blackboard doesn't support these browsers for using embedded media types that require third-party NPAPI plug-ins for viewing.
Another great browser for Blackboard is Microsoft Edge. This browser comes with Windows 10, but it's also available on macOS, Android, and iOS devices. The latest version of Edge is based on the Chromium engine, and it fully works with Chrome extensions. Of course, the new version also brings improved performance.Nov 17, 2020

Chromebooks don't use an operating system that is supported by Blackboard, but many features will work. You may need to use a computer for some courses or assignments, especially those where 3rd party content has been added. Check with your instructor to learn what is required for your coursework.May 27, 2020
