NVDA 2020.2 Released

By NV Access

NV Access is pleased to announce that version 2020.2 of NVDA, the free screen reader for Microsoft Windows, is now available for download. We encourage all users to upgrade to this version.

Highlights of this release include support for a new braille display from Nattiq, better support for ESET antivirus GUI and Windows Terminal, performance improvements in 1Password, and with Windows OneCore synthesizer. Plus many other important bug fixes and improvements.

Please note, after updating any software, it is a good idea to restart the computer. Restart by going to the Shutdown dialog, selecting “restart” and pressing ENTER. Updating software can change files which are in use. This can lead to instability and strange behaviour which is resolved by rebooting. This is the first thing to try if you do notice anything odd after updating.

While downloading NVDA, please consider becoming a monthly donor. Contributions like yours help NV Access continue our important work.

We also have a range of training material in the NV Access Shop to help you increase your skills with NVDA. Start with the popular Basic Training for NVDA in electronic text, audio and braille. Save with the NVDA Productivity Bundle. This includes Basic Training, all our Microsoft Office training, and telephone support.

Download NVDA 2020.2

In youtube with schrome, nvda read the subtitles by it’s own.

But in netflix with schrome, the lion is very usefull!!!

Hello.

The solution is the add-on Lion.

First, go to the video. Maximise the Window and press f11 for the complete screen. So, press NVDA+alt+L with the addon Lion installed and go to read the subtitles, but the add-on no repeat sentences.

Maybe. I really don't know. I noticed this on a system running 32 gigs or ram and my shadow that runs 12.. A restart fixed it, but it is still annoying as this might happen at system boot up, or mid what ever I'm doing on either machine.

Which is really, really shocking if it's true. Basic web coding conventions have been in place for a very, very long time now. Screen readers generally have little to no problem working with web-based interfaces that are not using novel controls (and novel controls are constantly being invented, but most sites have a smattering of these, if any).

Links, buttons, dropdowns, edit boxes, combo boxes, and the list goes on are not new and should be able to be accessed "straight out of the box" on any web interface. If they can't be, then someone has done something royally screwy to make that so.

Hi all

Sorry I only react now but that is because of a family crisis.

Thanks for all the very helpful suggestions, I didn't know them myself before you told me they exist.

Unfortunately it seems as though this website doesn't accept any of them. I can't share the url as it is the company's cloud program. They were told by the programmers that they need to rewrite the complete website to make the necessary accessibility changes. I'm not a programmer but is it not possible to add some code to the existing software to accomplish the use of keyboard input?

You're a great source of information, thanks again.

Odd,

If someone can capture a log at debug level that would be really helpful please!

Yes. This happened from time to time with older versions, but I've been seeing
it a lot more with recent versions (beta, RC, and alpha).

I haven't been able to figure out if it is NVDA's fault, or some change in
Windows 2004.

I have yet to capture a log on it, as it usually happens when I'm in a hurry.

I believe it used to happen more with Firefox, whereas now it seems to happen
for just about any application. Also it no longer seems to happen only after a
machine suspend.

Not only is the NVDA key no longer functional in these cases (I.E. NVDA+Q does
nothing but type a Q), even more perplexing to me is that Ctrl+Alt+N fails to
launch the desktop shortcut.
Which implies something about the keyboard driver I think, although Restarting
NVDA from the systray icon still fixes the problem.
