Re: I Can't get the latest version of NVDA to install
Gene
Let me restate my message. I can't definitely
say that you will get an error message. In my experience you do and I
believe that such a message is by far the expected behavior. But always is
something I can't say. But it may help you solve the problem faster in
many or most cases by concentrating on other possibilities first. When
such a problem happens, it is a good idea to download the file again and try it,
just in case. If that doesn't solve the problem, the file is likely
alright.

Re: I Can't get the latest version of NVDA to install

If an installation file doesn't download fully or
correctly, running it will cause some sort of error message. There was
none. Therefore, it wasn't a download problem. this may allow you
not to spend time chasing a false possibility in future.

Silent Install
Luke Thomson
Hi all, I have been testing NVDA with SCCM before rolling it out to our users. I have tried a few methods and hit a couple of stumbling blocks, namely that the 'install.exe --install-silent' command doesn't seem to work - the installer pops up regardless of whether I add the switch or not. Also I can't find any switches to run the uninstaller silently. Does anyone know what could cause this? Many thanks, Luke

Google TTS and Vocalizer both have Taiwanese Mandarin which isn't quite what I'm looking for. What I'm looking for is a different dialect of Chinese which doesn't seem to have a tts voice for it. The dialect is called Hokkien and is used in many places in addition to China, and in Taiwan it's known as Taiwanese.

hi
Zhengdu Screen Reader is divided into commercial version and craft version. The craft version is free. The commercial version requires a fee. The following is the download address of the craft version. You can download the experience: http://www.zd.hk/download-down-type-zdsr_pw.htm Finally, if this information violates the relevant provisions of the forum, the administrator can delete

Now in China, the Sunshine Screen Reader is not the most screen reader used by Chinese blind people.

Hi, I just now saw this post.

I was using Windows Defender + the latest version of Malwarebytes, the paid version with real time protection. I deleted the MB and the problem still exist. And, I'm still not clear on how to turn off Defender but many list members have stated that they are certain that both Defender and MB do not stop NVDA from downloading. Maybe, there is a small chance that I have messed up Defender, its menus or not at all friendly to me but, I kind of doubt it. I would like to find the last version of NVDA so that I can try installing it. Then, I would try to update to the current version. That wouldn't resolve my problem but it would at least get NVDA on the system. I wonder why I can still download software from other sources. I have NVDA on my bedroom laptop and it works great. But my living room PC is right out of the Twilight Zone! James B

I think Vocalizer has Taiwanese, or am I mistaken? definitely Google tts has it on Android, because I tapped on it once by mistake, and I got a terrible experience, since I needed Italian! lol hth, ciao, Ollie

Japanese Braille doesn't differentiate between Katakana and Hiragana symbols. But it would be closer to say that the braille represents Hiragana. That is a little difficult to explain though if you don't know the three writing systems and the way they work, which is beyond the scope of this topic. And as a general uestion since we're discussing Chinese, does anyone know of any tts voices that suporting reading of any hinese dialects aside from Mandarin and Cantonese? I am looking specifically for one that reads the Min-nan dialect, also known as fujian, Hokkien, taiwanese, etc.

Selecting sentences with NVDA
Akshaya Choudhary
Is there a way to select sentences while navigating sentence by sentence with the sentence nav add-on?
While I'm reading and reviewing complex documents I need to navigate sentence by sentence to properly understand it. Sometimes for revisions I'm also required to select particular sentences. Right now, I use the typical command of shift+ctrl+right arrow or shift+down arrow to do so. Is there a more effficient way out there? All inputs are welcome -- Regards, Sociohack

Hi Joseph
so which version would this one be. I was not really planning to do a tutorial yet it was more taking it for a test drive and to see what it looked like and felt like. Plus to let others know sound wise the layout etc.
I did not go into the help section but would this be a alfa version? i was expecting it to be more broken but was surprised when i navigated around it etc.

Re: Blind people typing Chinese

I kind of agree with you sir. I'm a Chinese Immigrant and I studied at the Beijing School for the Blind for 3 years and In BSB Students are required to learn braille. During Computer classes,I was taught how to use a Screen reader called Sunshine. I was also taught to use Sogou. Another advantage about Sougou is that a person can custemmize it's dictionary that make's life much easier for those people who are doing a job as a court reporter. Braille display is an expensive tool in China that a blind person by itself can't afford. Only the School for the Blind and the Beijing Talking book Library or the Braille and Talking book Library of China have them.
