How To Enable Developer Mode On A Chromebook

[@DavidHarry]

How To Turn On Developer Mode On Your Chromebook Works In 2024 Does Not Work On A School Chromebook. Chromebooks at Amazon amzn.to/3OqtLYV In this video I show you how to switch on developer mode on a Chromebook. This is also sometimes called Dev Mode on a Chromebook. This method still works in 2024. Regarding how to turn on developer mode on a school Chromebook. This can’t be done as the school will have the Chromebook locked down under an administrator account and will be controlled by the school’s Google account administrator. Also, if you have a Chromebook that has any administrator account control on it, you can not turn on developer mode on a Chromebook like this either. TIP FOR BUYING A USED CHROMEBOOK: When buying a used Chromebook make sure that it is not under any administrator control. If it is ask the person who you are buying it from to unlock the Chromebook first and then check it to make sure. To check it, just go through what I show you in this video to turn on developer mode on the Chromebook. Even if you’re not interested in developer mode on the Chromebook, going through the process will definitely let you know if the Chromebook has been unlocked. Because if the Chromebook allows you to turn on developer mode, this will mean that it is unlocked. You don’t have to continue into the final step to activate developer mode on the Chromebook, you can just restart the Chromebook without allowing it to complete the developer mode setup and it will boot into ChromeOS in regular mode without developer mode. THINGS TO DO BEFORE TURNING ON DEVELOPER MODE ON YOUR CHROMEBOOK: Don’t forget to back up any important data on your Chromebook before turning on developer mode, as developer mode will format the Chromebook’s storage and wipe all the data off of it, or as Google it, a Power Wash. So if you have any important data or files, such as photos, videos, music, documents etc. Do a backup of these files to your cloud storage or an external storage drive. You can always copy these files back to your Chromebook after you have added your account on it after turning on developer mode. Also, don’t forget that developer mode will allow you to install APK files, which are the app installer files, that didn’t come from the Google Play Store. This means that the APK files have not been checked for viruses etc. So just be very careful with what you install onto your Chromebook once it is in developer mode.

Hi Hugo. For various reasons, this function does not always work on all Chromebooks. However, if it does work on yours then your Chromebook will be completely clean with no administrator other than yourself and you can then do whatever you want. Cheers, Dave.

I did this for hax lol i need a alt for that.

[@nintendowatermelon6357]

@@itsyaedgyfriend9929 No and yes! I think it deletes all your files like images but if u have a saved email u can get your saved searches and stuff like that

[@FunnyAsian00]

Very informative and thx for the explanation! I'm sure you just saved tons of people from losing their data

[@DavidHarry]

Hi John. Thank you so much for the comment. One of the reasons why I done this video is because there's a few other similar videos out there that don't explain that you delete all the data. I'd done this video partly to put people off from doing it if they'd not realised they'd lose the data, or to at least make sure that people knew to back up first. Again, thank you for noticing and understanding the warning, it really does help to know that people do get the point to the videos. Cheers, dave.

Will it stay in developer mode if I power it on normally? Or do I have to do this every time I want to go into dev mode

[@DavidHarry]

Hi. Once in developer mode it stays that way until you want to switch back to normal mode. Cheers, Dave.

[@tfideano8086]

@DavidHarry Hi David, so now that I have downloaded the APK apps I needed, what will happen if I return the Chromebook back to 'non developer' mode...as in switching back to normal. Will the APK's be removed or will they remain? Hope that makes sense, thank you Sir.

[@DavidHarry]

Hi. If you go back to “none developer mode” all the data will be erased and the Chromebook essentially becomes a fresh Chromebook, ready to be re-logged into. This video may be helpful kzbin.info/www/bejne/gWeVkpqYnN-qgdEsi=mSnpPifHozZBktuw Cheers, Dave.

[@ky4774]

How can you switch out of developer mode?

[@DavidHarry]

Hi. Thanks for the question. If you check the description I've just added a link to a video I've done showing how to switch off developer mode. Cheers, Dave.

[@FushiLP]

Why would you

[@chasearist9109]

You can get everything back if you re sign in to your account

[@DavidHarry]

Hi. Yes, resigning into your account will give you all apps back, this process DOES NOT delete your actual Google account. Cheers, Dave.

Thank you so, so much for this tutorial! I get your warnings (which are not boring at ALL because you just want to warn and give us caution). Thanks again!

[@DavidHarry]

Hi. Thank you for your very kind comment and understanding the point of the warnings. Cheers, Dave.

[@isaacseehausen]

@@DavidHarry So, i am thinking about doing this, but I still have some Q's that I would like answered. 1) Will it open the "OS verification is off" screen every time I open my Chromebook now? 2) do I have to resign-in every time I power on? I am just trying to be careful and know what i am geting into if I were to do this. If you are reading this thank you so much for the amazing tutorial. Cheers!

[@thechristophers4750]

@@isaacseehausen This comment was 6 months ago, but I'll still answer. Yes, you will see the OS verification screen every time. All you have to do is press ctrl+d. Secondly, you will only have to sign in if you sign out like normal, but I assume you are talking about having to sign up every time. If so, then no. Then again you probably already made up your mind about all this. oh well

if you turn developer mode on do you still keep your files?

[@DavidHarry]

Any files in the Google Cloud are OK they don't get touched. ALL THE FILES THAT ARE ON THE CHROMEBOOK GET DELETED.
