Re: NVDA and Remote Desktop


Chris Mullins
 

I get as far as entering the ip address of a computer within my workgroup, pressing enter on the connect button and it opens a window which NVDA announces as 'Input capture window' then NVDA shuts up, I can't get any interaction with the window, so don't know what to do with it. Any ideas?

Cheers
Chris

Hello Jonathan,

Thank you for your suggestion. The one about logging in locally that's all i've got, I unfortunately do not have a Microsoft Domain, wish I did. The machines are all win10 pro.

Thanks.
Dave.

I've read somewhere that W10 Home machines cannot be on the remote end
of a Remote Desktop connection, only W10 Pro, is this the case?

Cheers
Chris

Hi David,

The key to making this work successfully is that you have to be sure
your computers are all logged in locally. That is, none of them can
be in an active Microsoft remote desktop session. If they are all
logged in locally, then it should work for you. Does that help?

Hello,

Can someone do a tutorial/podcast on Nvda and windows remote desktop?
I'm trying to get that going on machines that are connected to my
local network and not having any success.

Thanks.
Dave.

Hi Brian,
Windows Remote Desktop connection works great with NVDA. It just
needs a NVDA copy installed on the remote computer. I log into the
remote system via remote desktop, hit control-alt-n and then I can
manage the remote computer.
Windows remote desktop sends the sound back to me, since windows
remote desktop deals with sound redirection as well.
You can switch between the remote desktop and your own desktop by
pressing control-alt-pause and also the clipboard is being
transferred between local and remote computer.

Cheers,
Ralf

I'm not really sure what you are trying to achieve. I was under the
impression that remote desktop cannot be used with screenreaders as
the accessibility informatio is not sent down the line, just the
graphics of the other computers screen, which is why nvda remote add
on was designed.

Hi:

I have a copy of NVDA here on my home computer and a copy of NVDA on
my office computer.

If I access my office computer from my PC through Remote Desktop,
the copy of NVDA on my Office computer reads as I expect it to, but
when I press insert-t to here the title of the windo, or when I
press insert-q to shut down the copy of NVDA on my office computer,
the the NVDA on my home compyuter responds, for instance, when I am
in Microsoft Word on my office computer, and I press insert-t, my
home computer responds by reading the title of the window where my
home computer has focus.
What can I do to stop this behaviour and make the NVDA on myy home
computer relinquish control of my keyboard?
