I need to write 3 exams by using Certiport. The download a secure browser that is used to take the exam and blocks off the rest of your Mac so that you can only do the exam in their browser.

Have you contacted your third party about their interface...

if in doubt search the developers website or contact their: Support/Help/FAQ/Known issues/compatibility/updates…

re: MacLauncher 2

I have no idea what is this "MacLauncher 2" (?) I would try uninstall that third party app if that is your only issue.

out of curiosity —

you can try to trouble shoot :

—A SafeBoot Start up your Mac in safe mode - Apple Support

certain system caches get cleared and rebuilt, third party system modifications and system accelerations are disabled temporarily. Login and test.

Reboot as normal.

This test will tell you if third party interference; most extensions etc are not loaded in safe boot mode.

Rule number one — do not install garbage apps on the macOS

Rule number two—Uninstall all third party apps that are Cleaners/Optimizers/VPN/Anti-Virus

all known to cause issues on the macOS

I agree with leroydouglas, adding only the answers to the icon question.

The left icon is from Adobe's app Creative Cloud (with an arrow badge I don't recognize).

The right icon is Type to Siri.
