I already turned on developer mode (not the developer channel). When I get to the setup screen, I clicked on Debugging Features. I clicked on Proceed. After a few seconds, it said Something went wrong. I powerwashed my Chromebook, I turned developer mode off then on again, and kept getting the same error. What do I do?

please file feedback whenever you run into issues on the device.  you can prob go into guest mode and file it after you try.

I see this almost all the time I use that "Enable debugging features" button (and have done since I joined the team), so I've basically given up using it. (Will file feedback about it in future so we can see what's going on.) I don't think it does anything that you can't do elsewhere in the system, though.
