Re: Windows mail not responding to keyboard

Hello Everyone,

When I start Windows Mail it says "nothing has arrived yet." when I press NVDA+ctl+F1 it says "Commsapp module is loaded." Then it won't do anything. I know that there are messages waiting.

I'm trying to get Windows App Essenrtials installed.

Thanks,
John

Hi all,

For John: can you tell me what NVDA tells you (through braille) when you press Control+NVDA+F1 while a message is open in Mail app? If it says “commsapps.exe”, then the solution is using Windows 10 App Essentials add-on until the bug fix shows up to everyone (currently the bug fix in question is part of alpha builds).

Cheers,

Joseph

John,

Knowing the message you're getting when everything halts in its tracks is going to be key to finding a solution.
