Openwith barely usable with NVDA 2018.3
Rob Hudson <rob_hudson_3182@...>
When launching a file type that has no associated eextension, windows pops up a dialog asking what program with which to open the file.
Since upgrading to windows build 1803, this dialog is no longer read fully by NVDA. When it comes up, NVDA says the word pane and nothing else. Object navigation will take you to the various controls, such as the list of applications, but single clicking does not bring the list to focus so that it can be arrowed through. Nor can I use object navigation itself to read the list. When pressing NVDA+numpad-7 to try and switch to screen review, NVDA says nothing and review mode is not switched. Is this a known issue?

Re: Fail in downloading the team talk classic addons
Robert Mendoza
Hi, there is no problem with the team talk classic program itself. However, the addons has the ability to improves the usage of other functions.with NVDA.
The problem is the link that was mentioned below is https instead of http So, I pressume needs to be correct the path which is confusing and when you click the link it will gives you insecure connection and as for workaround you need to remove the letter s at the address bar or navigation address to manually before you got the addons itself correctly. Again, pasting the link of the direct link path in where I got from the site of the NVDA in where the problem occurs. https://www.dlee.org/teamtalk/NVDA/TeamTalk%20Classic.nvda-addon

Re: CAPTCHA Be Gone abandoned also?
Chris Nova
Hi Andrew,
Sorry about that.
For the record, the recording was posted in June of 2017 and
at that time it was a pretty cool service. Also, the recording
was just removed from the free downloads page. However it was
not removed from the podcast dated around that time for archival
purposes.
Thanks,
Chris

It does not look like the cobra screen reader is realy going any more unless there is a updated website. the following link is about it at http://www.bayareadigital.us/products/baum/cobra.html I would be really surprised if they brought down the price for jaws the price goes up with a exchange rate for others. I think they charge like 50 nzd a month like you are renting it and it goes onto your disibility allowance and if it is all used up out of your pocket. Gene nz Gene nz

popular in Germany as that is where it is made. What is very odd about this screen reading market is that it seems to be controlled by the big blind organisations. JFW is what I like to call the world wide screen reader as in, it is the one that is world-wide. Everywhere you go, every institution you go into, JAWS is there. And yet, we have all of those other screen readers that struggle through market share and I have a feeling that the screen reading market has been controlled. In fact, I remember a post on a mailing list a few years ago, You could probably find it in the mailing list archive, where somebody said that if we were to get rid of the government sponsorship that we would probably see more competition between JAWS, Supernova, NVDA, System Access, and, when it was alive back then, Window-Eyes, in those institutions, and the guy said if we successfully got rid of the government sponsorship then JAWS would have to play by the same rules as everybody else, and he said what could happen is somebody in a low income bracket would purchase something like SA, or use the free NVDA, someone in a mid-income bracket might choose Supernova, and someone who was on a high income bracket would go for JAWS, and, Window-Eyes, as, this was 2011 when that message was posted on the mailing list. I do hope that NVDA will get into big government institutions, as right now, I am a little saddened at FS right now. Basically, they are going to a subscription base model for authorisation, in JAWS 2019. The way it is going to work, is in the US, you will be able to purchase a home annual licence, but you will have to keep renewing your subscription to keep JAWS authorised. Eventually, all of the SMA's etc. will be in the portal, and everything will be subscription baste for jfw. And I believe the price will be $60 per year.
