Re: When nvda keeps turning itself on any time another program opens or shuts
Thanks, Shaun. I was thinking about the similarities in the computers, who set them up etc. and there are none except the password for log on was disabled so we can just use the computer without having to do that. It shouldn't matter but who knows. I doubt it does. Strange tech follows us around that even baffles people when they see it in person. LOL

Re: When nvda keeps turning itself on any time another program opens or shuts
Hi, So, you want to talk to an NVDA programmer? No need to write to us directly – I am an NVDA programmer/code contributor. Based on the discussion I’m seeing in front of me, we need to clarify a few things before we continue:
In order to better diagnose this, I and other developers will need detailed steps as to how to reproduce this, if it is reproducible at all. If the problem is reproducible (say, you exit NVDA, someone uses something, and NVDA somehow starts up without you doing anything), then it might be possible to do some more investigations (including NVDA Remote session). Once we know that the problem is reproducible, the next course of action is looking at add-ons you’ve got and disabling add-ons to see if that makes a difference. Failing that, reading a debug log is in order, followed by non-destructive and/or destructive settings reset (non-destructive: press Control+NvDA+R three times, use NVDA for a while, then press Control+NVDA+R once to reload settings; destructive: delete NVDA settings file).
On the other hand, if the problem isn’t reproducible or inconsistent as to when it occurs, there’s really nothing I and other NVDA Developers can do except to say that this issue is unique to your system. IN the past, users contacted NVDA developers to say that they are experiencing problems, which were later classified as unique to a situation when we failed to reproduce problems reliably.
As much as I wish to provide a troubleshooting session via Skype and NVDA Remote add-on (for free), there are other things I need to prioritize – I’m in college, so school takes priority. But if it does come down to providing second or third level technical support alongside NV Access people (NV Access does offer paid tech support, by the way), I’ll think about what we can do. Cheers, Joseph

Hi Brian,Gene/ and list
I do not have jaws and will not use jaws and as Brian said won't fix the issue really in a logical way but I appreciate the thought. I am asking if anyone has am nvda contact for programmers or anyone else I an ask about this. Because we've installed it before, never an issue. Not on windows 10, though. Not sure what made you think I had the same software on all computers, Brian, I am sorry if I indicated as much as it isn't the case. Also my sister's comp, comp number 4 doing this is not in my home. She is however in my city and she jokingly suggests that it's a *incert name of our city* problem and no one will understand. HAHA. Really though I hope we're just doing something wrong though I don't see what as again have used nvda for years without this happening. Each installation of windows 10 we have came from different people, the computers came from different places. My husband installed two one of ours, and my sister's, but those computers are entirely different, different models, one is a desk and one a lap top etc. But other 2 are having the same issue, one was done by Boundless, and one by a local computer guy. Again starting to feel it's just and our paranormal weirdness though why the ghoulies care about nvda is beyond me. I'm friends with the monster that's under my bed.

Re: When nvda keeps turning itself on any time another program opens or shuts
Well there are 2 options.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
1, start nvda at the windows logon screen. This is usefull if you have more than 1 account, keep this off on a public computer if if you don't want nvda starting at login. Note, its going to yell out secure screens at you reguardless but there is usually a delay of a few seconds. Just hit alty when you hear the prompt and its not a problem. You want the option that says start nvda after windows login or something like it and it will work. The keyword is after here and its what I use.

Re: When nvda keeps turning itself on any time another program opens or shuts
I appreciate that Gene and we'll try it. I wish we could figure out what's happening, though. 3 of our computers and my sister's as well all windows 10. We tried a reinstall too, did that first ages back actually and no go. I tell people paranormal things happen to our tech stuff all the time but my sisters too? I wanted to think it wasn't spooky stuff but now I have to wonder.

In case my previous answer wasn't clear, I'll add that in a previous
post, the person presenting the problem stated that the only way he/she found to stop the behavior was to turn off run at boot up. Therefore, I proposed the work around I did. Gene

Re: When nvda keeps turning itself on any time another program opens or shuts
When you know there are thousands, nay, millions who are not having this issue it clearly points to something idiosyncratic to your computers, and likely caused secondary to something you've done. That's not a criticism nor an accusation, but a fact.
I doubt it's due to Windows 10, per se, but it could be secondary to some slight corruption in your installations. See my tutorial, Britechguy’s Standard Advice Regarding Windows 10 Issues and Their Repair, and shoot straight to the numbered step, one, and try the SFC/DISM pair on one of your machines and see if that fixes the issue. Then if it doesn't, try the repair install. For myself, I would uninstall NVDA first before doing this if you have sighted assistance that makes this possible. Then reinstall it after either the SFC/DISM pair reports all is well or you've done a repair install. And if you haven't tried an NVDA uninstall, system Restart, and NVDA reinstall I would do that prior to doing any of the things I've recommended above, but I am presuming you have done this already. What you have occurring is uncharacteristic and I have not seen anyone report it prior to yourself. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 Power is being told you're not loved and not being destroyed by it. ~ Madonna

Re: When nvda keeps turning itself on any time another program opens or shuts
I disabled use nvda on and it didn't work the only thing that worked was to disable start nvda with windows but then it won't start up automatically when the computer does as I need it to. So either no start at all without me having to do it or it starts all the time when any other program does like it's start up when I don't want it to and again this never happened before windows 10 and now it's 3 computers.
