Re: Announce Current Version of Application

There may be an add-on that will do this.  I don't know of one.  However the about dialog of programs gives you that information.  You can get to it in most programs by opening help, alt h, then typing a, which opens about.  The version information is in the dialog.

There are some programs such as Chrome browsers where you don't get the version number that way.  If you have problems, let us know the program you are using.

Using another screen reader, there is a shortcut INSERT CONTROL V to announce the current version of the application being used. For example, if I press those keys now, it tells me I am using Microsoft Edge v. 104.

Is there a similar shortcut when using NVDA or will one of the add-ons perform this function?

Thanks for your feedback
