> If not is there any instruction on how to change the last tested date of a non-installed .nvda-addon file?

 

1. Email the add-on author and ask when it's going to be updated.

 

2. Rename the add-on by changing the .nvda-addon extension to .zip.

 

3. Unzip it.

 

4. Change the manifest.

 

5. Re-zip it.

 

6. Rename it from .zip to .nvda-addon.

 

7. Install it.

 

Bonus instruction: be wise, and stop after step 1.
