Yeah well, I'm not trying to be obscene here, but it's because the web designers didn't use checkboxes that expose themselves, or, perhaps to put it just a bit more succinctly, expose their state. &

I already have. The caps lock’s main purpose is for you to type in full caps. If NVDA slows this ability down, even by a keystroke, it should be considered. Again, Narrator is smart enough

Exactly, why would you hold shift key down to do a fully capped word or sentence? Makes no sense to me. All the best Steve -- To subscribe to our News and Special Offers list, go to

Hello NVDA community! Why does NVDA not read some checkboxes in Google Chrome? NVDA reads a lot of them, but some sites have a "remember me" checkbox on their login screen that just says "clickable";

I actually have been bothered, but I figured this was the default of every screen reader, until I started using differen oss. It’s not really a big deal to me, nice to have but not necessary.

Also check to see if keys are stuck. Hit ctrl left and right, shft, left and right, alt left then right, windows, capslock, then tab, in that order to make sure nothing is software stuck.

There are objective facts and opinions. You are stating a fact. You do this. You have presented no evidence to support a generalization that a lot of people do what you do nor that they find

I also use it a lot to tag some of my videos as there are things that need all caps, and I’m too lazy to hold down shift while typing KLAS to KMIA, or maybe I want to shout at someone on discord,

Control windows left and right arrow does nothing in a document. It is control left and right arrow that moves by word. It appears to me, that in general, input help announces the function of

Windows 11 might use them for something, but it doesn't move by word. I get silence but I was also out of the Thunderbird message window, or at least, NVDA didn't think it was in focus. I'd

Mike, Sorry that I somehow confabulated CTRL with WinKey in my prior response. But the overarching principle still applies. But now, in rechecking the NVDA Quick Commands Reference (NVDA + N, H, Q),

Mike, What NVDA Add-Ons are you using? I just did a quick review of the Input Gestures dialog, and the NVDA Quick Commands, and neither indicates that CTRL + WinKey + arrow keys is assigned to

But what makes anyone say it isn’t? Everyone’s experience is different. I know loads of people who use the caps lock, both blind and not. All the best steve -- To subscribe to our

Believe it or not, what follows is not me trying to shut down this topic, but trying to be as helpful as I can and point you to what is likely to be a far more useful resource. This topic is an

You are one person. If you took three showers a day, that doesn’t mean it is common. Gene

Hi guys: I have a question regarding the use of control+windows+left and right arrows; It looks like when using these keystrokes, Nvda moves by word or something; I also use these keys to

Hi, can you try pressing Control + Alternate + Shift and see if that help you to focus back on Zoom.

I disagree with your assertion that caps lock is not commonly used. I use it a lot. All the best Steve -- To subscribe to our News and Special Offers list, go to

Yes, that is not difficult at all. Narrator does it already. If you press it on its own, it becomes caps lock. If you press it with another key, any other key, it becomes a modifier. Simples

If you can’t get to the system tray icon in a convenient way, you may be able to get to the volume control by typing sndvol in the start menu search. Also, you can make a short cut to the volume
