I suppose the next question is, why are some having problems with NVDA and UIA and others are not? If we could find that common thread, we would know if it is a Windows issue or an NVDA problem.

Hello Jean, I can confirm that reinstalling doesn’t solve the problem either. Besides, I get the same problem with Narrator, so it is a general UIA problem I believe. But as long as I have

To try to wrap up my info on this list, Here are some links using Orca on YouTube. The first one is Orca preferences in Sonar, which is a distro of Linux that is customized to work with Orca, and

Here’s a little more, in case others are wondering about getting around in Linux… Glenn I usually set it to laptop mode, and I use the caps-lock with U I O for prior, current, and next line

I'm going to try that again. I don't actually think I typed that correctly yesterday.

Hi, Steve. Man, that is a bummer! Mine will after a couple of minutes. I tried what Joseph suggested yesterday and it did seem to work better, but it still wasn't perfect. If I close a

I have some info on the Orca screenreader list as well, here’s links for the list: Glenn To: <orca-list@...> Sent: Sunday, March 11, 2018 7:00 AM Send orca-list mailing list submissions

OK, if you would make  few examples of what you cannot do with nvda it would be appreciated. Thank you. Ciao.

This problem started with the newest major update to Windows. I have no idea whether reinstalling would help but who knows? I am skeptical that other user attempts, such as stopping apps will help.

Hi Steve, Unfortunately, no. Disabling UIA may have cured File Explorer issue for now, but it meant losing access to Start menu, various apps including Microsoft Edge, and other areas of Windows 10.

Hi Jackie, No malware here, according to various things. I have Malwarebytes, but I don't run it automatically, I only scan when I need to. No bloat on these custom machines, I know what I'm

Hi Joseph, Since this thread got a little bit hijacked by Linnux, did you get my message to say that doing the importUIAHandler thing as you directed cured my Explorer issues? All the best Steve

Wow, I wish I could agree with you. Still not enough configuration for me. NVDA's not bad, but not so usable as JAWS with applications that have custom interfaces. All the best Steve

Hi Angela, This may get off topic for this list, so I suggest that with Glenn's permission, you write to him directly with questions. I'll do that too, if that's OK with Glenn, but I'm going to play

The talking WinPE has programs for this, but I usually do this in Linux, since I think it does a better job. Linux has a command-line tool built in for this, called DD. Linux command-line is much

Hi, There are many distro’s of Linux that work with Orca the screenreader, so I don’t want to keep this thread going on this list, since it’s off-topic. But I will mention that I like Ubuntu

Yeah, & this was something I was gonna ask Steve to do, ie, download frst64.exe & run it so I could see what apps were running. I wanted to see if a reinstall might help first, though, because Steve

Hi all, To Steve: thanks for testing this. To everyone else: Steve’s reply confirms suspicions raised by some folks: UIA miscommunication. UIA slowing down can be caused by anything, the most
