We Couldn’t Complete the Updates/Undoing Changes
Kevin Chao
I installed Windows Updates, but since last night - NVDA only reads text in subject. It seems this is a common issue for Win10 and Win8.1: http://windowsreport.com/we-couldnt-complete-the-updatesundoing-changes/ I tried what similar article suggested, but they require going into boot options and startup in safe mode, which don't work with screen readers. I have tried Microsoft disability Help Desk, but they couldn't remote in, and told me to get sighted help. Any help from list, please? Thanks!

I am wondering how to get Nvda to say Period instead of Dot when pressing the Period Key on the keyboard.
Does anyone know how to do this. If so Please let me know how to do this, would be of great help to me.

nvda giving an invalid address
marvin kotler
Good afternoon list; Marv here. I am having a minor issue,
also. When using the portable copy of nvda on a usb stick, when going to
an addon link in an e mail message, I get a message that says the address is
invalid. The only way I can get it to work is to copy the link to the
clipboard and then paste it in. On the installed copy things work all
right. This happens on a couple other links, also. If anyone has a
resolution, it would be appreciated.

Re: ergent, nvda is sensitive to capital letters:

But this has nothing to do with the question in the
original message. I explained what was being described earlier today
because so many people were not addressing it and were discussing other things
related to the caps key. The person is receiving messages in which some
letters in some words are capitalized. They are not full words, they are
letters in words, such as in the middle of words.
Evidently, this is intentional and sounds like a
form of empahsizing certain letters or some sort of visual effect.

No. I'm referring to the fact that thekeys on this keyboard are very
close together and I have to be careful about accidentally hitting
the caps lock key.

Re: ergent, nvda is sensitive to capital letters:
Sharni-Lee Ward
Is this referring to NVDA's tendency to spell out some words when in all caps? eg. when the word "it" is in a sentence/phrase in all caps, it's pronounced as "i t", like the abbreviation. It can be annoying sometimes but I've adjusted to it. > From: nedster66@... > To: nvda@groups.io > Subject: Re: [nvda] ergent, nvda is sensitive to capital letters: > Date: Sat, 12 Mar 2016 09:52:57 -0800 > > Hi, I've done this.

One time I was sending a message to request a song on an oldies show. I accidentally hit the caps lock key and the message didn't go through. It's probably a good thing it didn't because the DJ probablywould have thought I was yelling at him. I'm glad I have another keyboard where the keys are a bit farther apart. Rosemarie

Re: NVDA Freezing
Hi, Which versn of NVDA is this, and does this occur when you tell NvDA to use a specific synthesizer, add-on or a braille display? I and NV access folks are concerned about this at the moment (there is an ongoing effort to resolve this). Cheers, Josephi

NVDA Freezing
Sharni-Lee Ward
Hey,
This has only started happening recently, but as it's happened three times now, I thought I should report it. I don't know whether it was caused by the latest update of NVDA or my recent acquisition of a Focus 40 Blue Braille display, but it happened the first time the day after the latter occurrance and I updated to the new NVDA about a week before that. What happens is that NVDA freezes after seeming to have started up all right. I know it freezes because I can hear nothing from it nor see any output from the Braille display. The first time this happened I got my sister to look at the screen and there was an error message about some file that couldn't be read/found...or something. I can't remember the details and I obviously cannot check for myself. All I know is there was a file extension in the error. The last two times, I just shut down the computer and restarted. Most of the time, NVDA works as normal. The one thing the three incidents have in common is that they happened just after NVDA started up. The first two times it was on initial startup. The second time was after I restarted NVDA due to it responding sluggishly, an occurrence that has happened often enough in the past and wasn't a cause for concern to me. Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have more information? I'd appreciate any input you can provide.

It's the dictionary (builtin.dic) that does this. JAWS has a similar behaviour.

This may well be what Narator is doing. If so then it might be worth asking about this on the dev list as I'd not know about the low level handing of this sort of data.

So it is nvda that does it. The thing is, in most cases, it is proper - mostly met, I guess, in programming and trademarks. So apart from using narrator (i don't know what does jaws do, didn't wan't to restart my computer right now.), or finding an hidden option or some simple command for python console, I don't believe there is any simple solution... maybe he should learn programming to write an add-on that lowercases everything before it goes to other processing... :) -- Patrick

Re: ergent, nvda is sensitive to capital letters:
Gene
That is for the pitch that is encountered when
reading letter by letter or when typing with echo character on. The
problem the person is having is that when a word has capital letters in the
middle of the word, it is not read as though it were a typical word. I
have not seen any setting that affects this and I don't know if it has anything
to do with NVDA or if it is the synthesizer itself that causes this
behavior.
To illustrate, I capitalized the G and I in the
word "original" that immediately follows this message. When I do this, or
is read then G I is spoken as if it were a word, then the rest of the word
is spoken. This spelling of capital letters makes reading almost
impossible because words become unrecognizable or almost so.
This is completely unrelated to any settings I am
aware of in NVDA.
This may be an NVDA behavior because I tried
reading the word with three different synthesizers and got similar
results.
