What version of windows, Brennen?

You aren't exposed to a significant extent if you turn the software off and
take precautions while it is off. With the amount of sites that show hacked
malware these days, you are taking a certain amount of risk but if you use
an ad blocker, that risk is greatly reduced. I don't know if it is
eliminated. I would think that for testing, if you go to a site where
nothing has been flagged, you should be quite safe. If you have been using
a site regularly for weeks, months or longer and you test with this site,
while there is no guarantee, but even without an ad blocker, the odds of
something malicious being placed on the site by hacked advertising just when
you decide to test are low.

Reasonable prudence is one thing. "Fear itself" is another.

Which would essentially leave him on the net exposed to every piece of
malware known to hackerdom. I'm thinking perhaps not?

Brennen, there is an awful lot you don't tell us, ie, what version of
Windows you're using, what browser you're using, whether you've
optimized your computer for use by blind individuals, including
browser accessibility settings, and whether or not your version of
NVDA is portable or a standard installation.

I would suggest also viewing your event logs under control panel >
administrative tools, both in terms of systems & application logs as
well as your NVDA log to see if any errors are shown.

Hi,

You could just stop all the Sophos services if you're a local admin.

The following command would do it:

wmic service where "caption like '%Sophos%'" call stopservice

Note: Change stopservice to startservice to start them back up.

That may well be the problem. You may like to try an alternative or
temporarily disable it, seeing if the problem is eleviated.

Are you running HitMan Alert or a Sofos Antivirus professional

These can play havoc with keyboard mappings and NVDA.

yah sorry i don’t do so well talking about problems through email

yes the problem occurs with every shortcut key in brows mode and it
seems to do just about every other action but the action it supposed
to do

The symptoms described don't match the problem. Here is the
original
description:

when I press the H key for headings it says no checkboxes no edit
box
no link but it doesn’t say anything about headings
Nothing was stated about web pages not being able to be read.
Nothing was said about any occurrence of the word "unknown" being
spoken.

I have never seen this description of symptoms associated with the
problem the corrective procedure is supposed to correct. I see no
reason to perform this corrective procedure until there is some
indication that the problem has any of the symptoms associated with
the problem this procedure is supposed to fix.

the tool Brian is refering to if it is the same bug i think it
might
be
grab a copy of nvda 2018.2 rc2 and download it and install it to
your

computer. Then while nvda is running use the nvda key + letter N to
go
into the preferences of nvda then go to tools a sub menu will come
off
it then locate the following menu called Run COM Registration
Fixing

tool... then press the enter key.

I am not sure after that but after the process should register any
broken dlls that nvda needs to use.

let us know if it does the trick.

By the way after you press the enter key on it the menu e pointed
you

towards i am not sure if there are any thing or screen after that
to
follow.

hi


Out of curiosity do you hear sounds or hear browse mode and
focus
mode
when you go between those modes?


if it is the sound one i think you hear a letter sound and when
you are
out of focus mode you hear another sound.


if you want to hear them spoken have a look under the browse
mode
settings and uncheck the following box called Audio indication
of
focus
and browse modes

then save your settings.


If you tab a couple of times do you hear unknown or pane?


Do you also hear it under say the running applications part on
windows
and it is not speaking the icons down there and some other stuff
like
that?


By the way which version of nvda are you running? did you
download
the
latest nvda 2018.2 rc2 version if so there is a tool in this
version of
nvda that might fix it.


If you are not really getting that stuff then we can sus some
thing else
out and maybe narrow it a little.
