wondering what the process RescueRecordings is?

[Eyoung]

my school is trying to run a standardized test and the secure web browser they use is choking on a RescueRecordings process thats running on student system (its a root level process).

anyone ever heard of this process? my googlefu has failed me thus far.

all the machines are running 10.12.5

thank you

Googling indicates that it's part of this software.

We use Dill here, and ran into this issue when students launched secure browsers as a part of standardized testing.

Reach out to your Dill support channel, they have two items that should help:
1. Pre-release version of Dill that adjusts the way the culprit launchdaemon/process works - this should resolve secure browser conflicts. v1.8.2.16 as of 10/17/2017.
2. Terminal command to unload the rescuerecordings launchdaemon - run as sudo if running locally (will need to reload prior to Dill use):

launchctl unload /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.swifteducationsystems.rescuerecordings.plist

Cheers!

Edit: should be noted that option 2 is not necessary if you've gone the upgrade option 1 route
