Re: Intermittent lack of feedback in Windows Explorer
Brian's Mail list account <bglists@...>
So the question is then, should we all be using the alpha build to see if that helps. At present i have the old master on the working installed copy of nvda, the one that will, I assume, end up as beta, and Alpha the old masterafter updates, on the portable version. i really do not notice much of a difference, to be honest.

Re: Intermittent lack of feedback in Windows Explorer

I've been having this happen for the past few windows 10 and NVDA builds.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
It seems to really occur when copying, moving, or deleting files. Sometimes tabbing through the explorer window helps, sometimes a restart of NVDA is required. And when this happens it almost always breaks alt tabbing.

I am as you will see also having windows lock ups on two 7 machines and the only thing in common seems to be something to do with usb, but the add ons have been here for ages so its either nvda or a driver they updated about a few weeks ago, Intell I think.

I had this with explorer both on windows 7 and 10, and it was the processor in the computer actually not running at full speed. It seems on many laptops the processor is slow to catch up with demand and hence the actual selection is behind the one you think it is on, or worse, on nothing at all! I'm sure somebody else will respond but I had to go digging into advanced power management and crank up the idle speed to at least 50 percent, it was set at 10 percent, before acceptable results occurred. Of course it could be something else, but this was the reason I found for most of it. I would have thought that as nvda is hogging one core and hence stopping the machine using it, Windows ought to sense it and up the speed of the cores. It seems that this only happens sometimes when more than one core is maxed out. I guess this might be because nvda is a 32 bit app, not a 64 bit one with the ability to push threads though different processor cores. I'd welcome some more knowledgeable people to comment.

Windows going silent
Brian's Mail list account <bglists@...>
I have noticed a fair few of these messages here and have experienced several apparent windows lock ups myself. However it is looking like it might be an issue with usb drivers or hardware.
Up until quite recently on windows 7, if a usb malfunctioned you simply got a warning. but recently it just stops the machine. Now its hard with such an erratic problem to work out if nvda is involved at all in this, or if its a windows issue. All I can say is check all usb attached devices for intermittent connections or unplug those you are not using at the moment and see if the issue stops happening. I had it with a wireless dongle and a couple of mp3 players and I've unplugged them so we shall have to see. I only sussed this out as when I did a button shut down there was a fragment of speech about a usb issue. Brian bglists@blueyonder.co.uk Sent via blueyonder.

Hi Debra,
Your browser has changed the file extension to
".zip"...
These things happen just with some machines as it
seems.
Not you have to unpack the file, make sure that the
file extension is .nvda-addon, otherwise rename it, then double click on the
file to install it on nvda.
You'll see that after work.

some time for the aplet to load. Arrow keys take you from 1 setting to the next, enter, then tab brings you to the list of settings in that particular group which can be modified. The only addons I have installed are Pico, remote, & TeamTalk classic. I am running the latest NVDA, though, & Narrator works w/it as well, so I'm wondering if this is something unique to your system.
