Re: Finding the "Add to Cart" Button on Amazon

The way I have always found the add to cart thing on Amazon where is to do a search for the word add. Maybe you get add to something before add to cart, but it’s easy enough to hit F3 and move on.

Its one reason why I don't care for shop repairs. Mostly its get the system back, check it, fix whatever is broke then it works. Or if its that good get it and up and go. Usually, get it back, reformat it, completely then use it then swear I will never do it again. So just reformat and reinstall windows.

somewhere else first. I CTRL + Home then hit R for radio buttons to get "add to list" and arrow up a bit to get add to cart since it can change .. from link to button I guess. If you do R for radio button to get "add to list" and hitting shift F or B doesn't take you to "add to cart" arrowing up will. I've not noticed the "add to list" changing from a radio button so far.

It seems really fantastic! The good thing is: there are all commands available in the help menu, so every one can learn... And I think it does many many things: now it can be compared to Jaws! It is even faster! The transition is smooth and have no problems at all. And I updated to the latest version with no particular nuisance. Thank you so much to the wonderful devs who make it better every day! Sorry for my terrible English, but I wanted to thank you those who put effort on what they do.

Graphics Stickers

Is there an addons or way to read the graphics stickers in facebook. Silly question to ask cause some of my friend send me like this type which is not readable by nvda though, I believe there is Emoticon but this only handles only for standard Smiley and Emoticon.

Re: can't upgrade to the nvda 2017.4 rc

Hi, Quentin,
I was able to upgrade to NVDA 2017.4 1 RC but not to the second NVDA 2017.4 RC. I'll try what you suggested and see if it works.
Rosemarie
From: nvda@nvda.groups.io [mailto:nvda@nvda.groups.io] On Behalf Of Quentin Christensen
Good points re trying to use task manager or uninstall to stop anti-virus programs.
The other question I had for Rosemarie, was that you mentioned you tried to upgrade to 2017.4rc1 but it didn't work and now you are using Narrator. Does NVDA 2017.3 (or whichever version you were using before) now no longer work at all?
One other option for using NVDA, more as a one off, as I wouldn't want to do this all the time, is if you run the 2017.4rc1 (rc2 we're up to now) launcher, it should at least load NVDA to the point of getting you to the license agreement. As long as it gets that far, you can either select "continue" or even just alt+tab away from the window and leave it there and it will stay running and working for you (or you could setup a portable copy from there you should be able to run later at least without the startup music and which will remember your settings).
Regards
Quentin.

out of curiosity was this just after you upgraded from the rc1 version of nvda to the rc2 version of nvda? I had my settings saved to when i log onto windows but it unchecked it and was waiting to see if any one else had this happen to them.
to save your settings any how is the nvda key + ctrl key + the letter c.
It might be a bug that has just been introduced Gene nz ? On 11/24/2017 5:43 AM, Brice Mijares wrote:
