[All ChromeOS Administrator Questions]

In regular user mode, how does an admin open the crosh shell on a ChromeOS device to run a ping command?

ACtrl + Alt + V

BCtrl + Alt + t

CCtrl + Alt + Tab +W

DCtrl + Alt + i

Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: B

In regular user mode on a ChromeOS device, pressing Ctrl + Alt + t opens the crosh shell (Chrome OS developer shell), a command-line interface. From there, you can execute various commands, including ping to test network connectivity.

Other options are incorrect because they either have no assigned function or trigger different actions in ChromeOS.

I have a vague memory of a similar question, and I think the answer is Ctrl + Alt + i, but that doesn’t sound right for crosh.

Ctrl + Alt + t is the way to go, no doubt about it. It's the classic crosh command, like the 'Hello, World!' of ChromeOS.

Haha, Ctrl + Alt + Tab + W? That's just asking for trouble. I'm pretty sure that's the shortcut to opening a portal to the Upside Down.
