Re: Autocorrect question.
Thanks, but is there a certain string I can type into the replace box, like a macro, that would allow me to type other characters while it corrects the first character?
For example, in LO and OO, I can type, "a.* And, the second I hit the letter N, or any other letter, even though I didn't hit space or similar, LO and OO transform it to, "A without me having to type, period, asterisk. Is there a kind of macro or built in way to make MS word do this too?

Starting a braillenote APEX WITH NDVA
Robert Geoffroy
Hi, everyone,
I can use my Apex with NVDA only if I have launched it with Jaws before I disable that one. How can I start my APEX directly when using NVDA? Does anyone know a way? Thanks, Robert PS: I do enjoy Tyler Spivey’s add-on (reading of partial lines), hope you read my message!

Re: Microsoft's Own Security Chief Says: STOP using Internet Explorer

When you start to make a bookmark, if you tab once
from the name field, you get to a field where you can specify the folder the
bookmark will be saved in. I don't remember if it is identified as a combo
box, but that is how it functions.
Up and down arrow through the choices. If you
want to add the book mark to the Internet Explorer folder, stop on that
folder. Don't press enter because I'm not sure what that would do.
You can experiment and see if you wish.
If you shift tab back to the name field and press
enter, the book mark will be saved in the specified folder.
You may change the name of the bookmark whenever
you want, before or after you specify the folder.

Re: A couple of questions

Hi Quenyin,

Thanks so much for your reply. As you suspected, restarting NVDA with add-ons disabled allowed me to interact with the settings dialogue and change settings. When I restarted NVDA with add-ons again, the changes I made in settings were honoured, which is exciting as I now have an NVDA key again. I will investigate the add-on updater add-on to see if I can isolate which of my add-ons is causing this but am happy with this workaround for now. Kind regards, Ashleigh

Re: Microsoft's Own Security Chief Says: STOP using Internet Explorer

I always recommend The Old Reader for RSS. It’s web based and fully accessible. There are free as well as paid options. I choose to pay for the extra services as well as to support them. I’m grandfathered in at a $2.00 a month price for up to 500 feeds, but I think it may now be $2.50 or maybe $3.00 a month. I’m not sure. The Old Reader can also sync with various mobile apps if you’ve got an Android or iOS device.

The newest slimline usb powered lg drives are super light and only cost 40 dollars. Pluss once you have that drive you can run any tablet, or ultrabook. You can also use it on a tv.

Hello,
When we talk about IE and FF/Chrome, we should not forget IE's management of RSS feeds. as I know this is the best implementation of this feature so far. Chrome has never had this feature implemented, FF has removed it "live bookmarks" since version 63 and I still haven't found an addon, which could worked well as I expected. Any advice or should I use IE for reading RSS feeds? thanks. kind regards, Jožef

Tablets unless they are the expensive ms ones are well quite small.

4-8gb ram and anything from 8gb to 64gb flash memmory. The microsoft ones can take up to 1tb of storage and some lenovos. For myself this hp I have now is basically an entertainment ultrabook with 2 drives, and while slightly heavier than my cloud based ultra my aunt owns, for all it is its half the thickness of my older bulky and slower workstation.
