Re: NVDA remote question help needed
Charles Adkins <cadkins6739@...>
Thanks, did not help, but I do have it narrowed down to one offending machine. The numbers will not stop until I disconnect and it happens whether I'm controling remote or local.

Re: NVDA remote question help needed
Charles Adkins <cadkins6739@...>
Thanks for answering. Well, deleted my remote.ini file, checked progress bars on all machines and they are not enabled. There are two machines I connecting with at work. One works fine, but when I connect to one machine at work, the progress bars keep being announced and the only way I can stop them on local or remote machine is to disconnect my remote connection. Very strange.

While I doubt this will solve the problem, try turning off report dynamic
content changes. It’s a toggle, NVDA 5, 5 on the main keyboard.

s m*. Progress bars are not checked on either machine. I've figured out that it
only happens on one work machine I connect to, but once those progress bars are
being read, it continues to read them until I disconnect remote. Progress bars
are not enabled on any machines I'm using. Numbers read so fast I have to keep
hitting the control key to stop speech to see if I'm controling local or remote
machine. Not good when you're trying to keep a radio station on the air lol!!!!

Re: Tony's add-ons: updates and new features
Gene
This opens help information for add-ons in general. I’m not sure that
every add-on has help available in this way, but they generally do.
New steps begin on new lines.
Open tools in the NVDA menu.
down arrow to manage add-ons and press enter, and find the add-on in the
list.
Then tab until you get to a help button and press the
space bar.
I believe this usually opens the web page where you
downloaded the add-on and the page usually has a description of how to use the
add-on and available commands.

Re: question about NVDA and the Windows login screen
First, this is going to become my standard practice in 2022, so it's not aimed at you, specifically. Every NVDA user needs to know how to bring up the NVDA User Guide when questions like this arise: NVDA + N, H, U [NVDA Menu, Help, User Guide]
In the User Guide, search on just the phrase "windows start" and you're right in the middle of the discussion of enabling the setting in General settings to do just that. Now I'll give the answer: NVDA + CTRL + G opens the NVDA General Settings. So does NVDA + N, P, S (Since General settings are the initial Settings tab/pane displayed) In the General settings there is a checkbox for, Use NVDA during sign-in (requires administrator privileges). If you have admin privilege, and check this checkbox, NVDA should become active on the Windows sign-in screen the next time you have to sign-in to windows. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 The instinctive need to be the member of a closely-knit group fighting for common ideals may grow so strong that it becomes inessential what these ideals are. ~ Konrad Lorenz (1903-1989)

Sounds like perhaps you've got background progress bars enabled?

Yes. If you go to preferences and then press enter on the settings option, you should see a checkbox that says use NVDA during sign in under the general category. Remember that you need to have administrator access on the machine in question for this to work.

Re: Tony's add-ons: updates and new features
Moderator Intervention Alert!!
First, I want to thank Tony Malykh from the bottom of my heart for all he's been doing with add-ons, and all the other participants on this topic for taking the time to give feedback and exchange ideas with Tony and vice-versa. Second, I want to ask you to stop, but only in relation to this topic. It is much more helpful, particularly from an archival perspective, but even for those who are interested in certain of Tony's add-ons, but not others, if these information exchanges are broken out into dedicated topics related to the single add-on to which the discussion refers. I am not trying to dissuade the membership from continuing the various discussions, but I am asking that you please break them into single add-on "digestible chunks" rather than this particular topic going on with the focus meandering from one add-on to the next. Thank you for your consideration and attention to this matter. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 The instinctive need to be the member of a closely-knit group fighting for common ideals may grow so strong that it becomes inessential what these ideals are. ~ Konrad Lorenz (1903-1989)

In order to create a bookmark to skip YouTube ads: 1. Make sure you have created a website definition for youtube.com. 2. Go to skip ad/Skip ads button on youtube page, press NVDA+J > Bookmarks > Create bookmark for site youtube.com. You need to do this rapidly, as this button disappears quickly.
Also please read documentation to understand different types of
bookmarks.

NVDA remote question help needed
Charles Adkins <cadkins6739@...>
Using the latest NVDA and latest remote add-on, for some reason when I connect with another computer using the nvda remote server, I hear a constant stream of numbers being spoken that keeps going until I disconnect, no matter what I do. Any suggestions would be very helpful. This happens with windows 7, 10, and 11. Thanks.

Re: Tony's add-ons: updates and new features

For some reason, on my Windows 7 machine, I expect to get a Windows 10
machine soon, the add-on is shown as running in the list of add-ons but does
nothing. That’s how I know that technically, the add-on is running but
since commands for the add-on do nothing, it does nothing. If you use
commands, does the add-on take an action?
Do you know how to find information about how to use the add-on? When
you are on the addon in the list, you can tab to an add-on help button and press
the sspace bar. The page about the add-on from the download site will open
and you will find a discussion and commands for using the add-on there.
That isn’t to say that you will have no questions but you may see the
information you need to use the add-on for the most part.

Hi Tony
Ah, you're right! thanks. I have now
been able to reassign NVDA+j to NVDA+Alt+j and all seems to be
working fine and I have not encountered any other conflicts with
the NVDA Global Command Extension add-on.
Many thanks for your very useful
add-ons and in particular, thanks so much for being so responsive
and ready to assist.
Kind regards

Found a bug. The problem is in caching, so a quick workaround
would be to restart NVDA after changing phrase settings. Will fix
it in the next release.
