Hi,

I removed Jaws completely from my PC and have been using nvda only since last october... I do exactly the same things as Jaws: web navigation, checking emails, using text programs et.

I can say in same occations nvda is even better than Jaws... so no need for it now.

Honestly, I may say those who speak bad of nvda is only because they do not know it enough.

Dear friends, the matter of fact is that I’m using JAWS as my primary screen reader since I have started using computer for the first time in year 2010.
The latest tutorial of NVDA by Joseph Lee made me interested in using NVDA.
So I have downloaded and installed it and since then I have been using it as my secondary screen reader!
I’m very happy to let you know that NVDA is well ahead of JAWS specially in the area of accessibility!

It would be excellent when more companies would colaborate with NV
Access to make their desktop apps accessible with NVDA.

I used Quicken from 2000-13 with Window-eyes. Since the
discontinuation of Window-eyes, had I continued using it rather than
switching to my bank's iOS app, this would require me to use JAWS
since unfortunately, NVDA doesn't support Quicken enough to make it
useable.

Hey all,
I am enjoying this thread. I don't see any need or reason to insist that
one screenreader is inherently better overall than another. They each may
work better for different tasks or one just may find one easier to use than
another. In my case, I use nvda most, but have relied on jaws for working
with pdf documents, as I find for me it seems to be a bit easier to
manipulate. I will sometimes try narrator as well, it is so nice to have
choices. It's just like with phones or computers, it's preference and/or
tailoring to what specific task you need a screenreader for. I'm
personally apprecitive of microsoft, vfo and nv access for all their hard
work.

Indeed.

It's exactly the same as choosing a web browser - there is no single "best"
choice. Some people prefer Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera, or whatever;
sometimes one works with a particular website better than others; some have
features which you don't often need but are really useful on occasion.

So, having several web browsers installed so you can choose which one to
use
at any given time is good; the same thing goes for screen readers - there
is
no single "best" choice, it depends on what you're trying to do, and
sometimes
what you feel most comfortable / familiar with.

As a blind person who has used a computer for a long time with many

things JAWS is better at than NVDA and vice versa. I’ve actually had to
switch between screen readers in the middle of performing a task on the
web simply because one will work and the other won’t for one specific part
of a task. Thanks for reading.

Exactly!

I use NVDA for many tasks, JAWS for many tasks, and even Narrator for other tasks. Each screen reader has its own specialties to be better in different apps, the web, and desktop programs. JAWS does a little better in Chrome, for example. NVDA does great in the win10 mail app. Narrator does very well in the Store app and Skype app. I use all screen readers to be as fast as I can and get the most done. I am not loyal to one screen reader like my wife LOL! The more tools you have, the more you can do. I use three browsers, for example, to do different tasks. Have a great one!

Hi!

NVDA is faster in Edge, you can open PDFs and Epub books, and you can save or back your favorites as an html file.

Also, Edge loads pages for me, much faster than the later versions of firefox.

Have a great one, by the way, I use Chrome, most of the time, it works much better, in my opinion, than the latest versions of firefox.

For those of us who are blind, what advantages does Edge have over Firefox?

Also, there doesn't seem to be a way to backup Favorites unless this is

That's true. Although JAWS does have tools which I use at work such as Text Analyzer, skim reading, etc. Skim reading is in NVDA and I think Text Amalyzer could as well.

Subject: Re: [nvda] NVDA Is Well Ahead Of JAWS

I use JAWS extensively for its excellent braille and Microsoft Office

support, but NVDA is improving in these areas. The BrailleExtender add-on is

very good, for example. On my system, at least, with applications such as

Microsoft Outlook, NVDA doesn't seem to crash as JAWS does. Perhaps I've

simply been lucky.

I've noticed some bugs in NVDA 2018.1.1, but, on the other hand, I'm aware

of some JAWS bugs as well. Perhaps I should go to GitHub and report the NVDA

bugs, or raise them on the list.

All of the screen readers that I have used have their advantages and

drawbacks. They all have bugs, too. So do operating systems and

applications, where many of the accessibility issues lie. Choose whatever

combinations best meet your needs. As others have suggested, having multiple

screen readers available is a good situation to be in.

I would venture to say that if it involves the insert key, it is a
screenreader command.

A big shout out to Gene, Jonathan, & Sylvie for all reinforcing the
importance of knowing the difference between application program or Windows
OS keyboard shortcuts and screen reader shortcuts.

When shortcuts "are your life" (and even when they aren't) it's very easy to
lose track of which shortcuts are processed by what layer - screen reader,
program, or OS - but knowing which it is can really make your life much
easier. The CTRL+T for "open new tab" command is universal, or very nearly
so [as I've not hit an exception yet], within all web browsers.

A huge number of the keyboard shortcuts that any of use use are Windows OS
keyboard shortcuts. Microsoft now has a great page documenting same which
allows you to choose which version of Windows you wish to get them for via a
dropdown box near the very top of the page: Windows Keyboard
Shortcuts<https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/12445/windows-keyboard-shortcuts>;.
While the old tried and true ones from all prior versions of Windows
remain unchanged, there are a number of new ones, mostly using WinKey plus
something, but a few others as well, that are new to Windows 10.

Hello,
For users of edge how do you use it? I am wanting to try it but have
no idea how to proceed there's no menu I don't see an interface. I'm
also wondering the advantages of edge vs. ie11/firefox/chrome?
I am enjoying this thread.
Thanks.
Dave.

Also, Edge has a built in reading feature, where all the clutter is gone
from the page, leaving just the article. It works like Just read in Chrome.
To activate it, just press CTRL+Shift+R.

Hi!

NVDA is faster in Edge, you can open PDFs and Epub books, and you can
save or back your favorites as an html file.

Also, Edge loads pages for me, much faster than the later versions of
firefox.

Have a great one, by the way, I use Chrome, most of the time, it works
much better, in my opinion, than the latest versions of firefox.

I am running the latest NVDA master along with Fall Creaters update of

Win10 and finally decided to check out Edge. I do have a few questions.

For those of us who are blind, what advantages does Edge have over
Firefox?

Also, there doesn't seem to be a way to backup Favorites unless this is

managed through Syncing. I am already logged into my Microsoft account.
