Hi. I was wondering the same myself. We don't need all those addons there. All we need is our personal voice prefference such as synth of choice, speed etc. Nikos

Hi all Is there another way to copy custom settings before logging in to Windows without having to ignore the installed add-ons in NVDA? So far, I have had to deal with the fact that all the add-ons I

friends, if you want to decrease the verbosity level, go to the document formatting settings, and disable the options you don't want to hear.brian, the latest version of NVDA that supports windows

Having said that, I still think some of this is ridiculous. Here is such an absurd example of oververbosity that I am sending it. This is how a song list is formatted on a Youtube page. The eye

The easiest thing is to determine how long the period is before lock: Settings, Personalization, Lock Screen, Screen timeout settings link. It is possible to set the lock to Never, but it's clearly

Hello, Yes, this also seems to happen when reading with a Braille displ'ay as well. I am not aware of any setting to keep the computer awake when NVDA is in use, and not actually interacting with a

Hi all, My work laptop is running windows 10 and I am using nvda 2021.3. I am using office 365 on that machine. The laptop is set to automatically lock if there is no keyboard or mouse activity. I

To add to what I said earlier. Joseph actually had a project, search for project longhorn, to support more modern processor and OS features. He had a build of NVDA that supported SSE2 in

Enes, I doubt, very much, that this was the sole reason and I agree, if it was, that this is not tenable. But we have seen how much hue and cry is going up with broken add-ons and the like secondary

Brian though I think with NVDA the migration to python 3.9 etc was canceled or pushed forward because it would break NVDA's support with Windows 7. When features that would benefit newer

I remember the old Braille ‘N Speak where you could have the line feed turned off and just have the return in a document. I don’t know how common that was. I think this was already explained

I’ll add that the reason I vfind your comments valuable is that until now, I’ve never seen a good or systematic reason why more and more verbosity is made available and is turned on by default.

Yep. I remember tracter feed paper too. I'm at version 3.9 in terms of my age. I think this is why I was taught that a line feed and a cR were different, or something. Sorry for making everyone's

That’s an interesting position, that not adding verbosity will creat blackout. It may have merit or some merit. But perhaps there is a better way. Perhaps for new users of NVDA, an announcement

I've stayed out of this discussion, but I have to say that in large measure, I agree with Gene. I do not care about figures, lists, block quotes, as well as any other nonfunctional symbols,

This was ny point Brian. There were recent fixes for Windows 7, Office 2007, and Internet explorer. All of these are out of support. Windows 7 support ended in January 2020, and it will

You said: The thing is, Gene, if history is any indicator, the maximum verbosity out of the box is not about "most people," but, as I said, beginners. While that is true in various instances, I

But so are all old apps dropping old OS support. There is a point of time when maintaining an app's support isn't worth the time and efort, and it aalso encourages risky behavior. Microsoft
