Hello,

I'm not too sure about what you are describing exactly, but here are some infos that could be useful.

- ctrl+alt+n only works with installed version of nvda, not with portables ones.

- to work in cmd, it is usually recommended to disable keyboard and word echo. When it is enabled, the result can be annoying, as it reads letters and words of output, and does skip the punctuation with the word reading.
If that is done, output should be spoken directly, and you can use review cursor, i.e. numpad with numlock off to browse through already displayedtext (assuming you are using desktop layout).
