Nexus Browser Requirements

If you are using any browsers not listed here, Nexus performance cannot be guaranteed. Some tools/functionality may work; others may not. Please update your browser.

Tip: By default, most browsers automatically update to the latest version. To ensure you are running the latest browser version, D2L recommends that you set your browser to auto-update, and note the following:
