Hi good people:

I just want to know if there is a specific limit of gigabyte memory

space that a computer needs to have for NVDA to work effectively.  How

much GB of memory space is required.

Hope to read a response.

If you can run the latest master, and the problem is what I think is being suspected, then it has a tool that attempts to fix such problems in windows installations.

hi


Out of curiosity do you hear sounds or hear browse mode and focus mode
when you go between those modes?


if it is the sound one i think you hear a letter sound and when you are
out of focus mode you hear another sound.


if you want to hear them spoken have a look under the browse mode
settings and uncheck the following box called Audio indication of focus
and browse modes

then save your settings.


If you tab a couple of times do you hear unknown or pane?


Do you also hear it under say the running applications part on windows
and it is not speaking the icons down there and some other stuff like that?


By the way which version of nvda are you running? did you download the
latest nvda 2018.2 rc2 version if so there is a tool in this version of
nvda that might fix it.


If you are not really getting that stuff then we can sus some thing else
out and maybe narrow it a little.

Hi


Have you already got nvda installed? if so do the following.


If you grab the latest version of NVDA which is 2018.2 rc2 make sure you
install it to your computer first.

The reason for this is after you have made a portable copy now you do
not have to do all the other steps as you used to do.

While nvda is running use the nvda key + letter N, arrow down to tools a
sub menu will come off it then arrow down to the one that says make a
portable copy then press the enter key.

The next screen that comes up it will land in a edit area. Now
install your usb stick into the computer you should hear nvda say the
drive letter like e: drive. While in the edit area still make sure it is
clear as in no text then type in the drive letter and folder name. for
example e:\nvda Then tab a couple of times and you will hear nvda say
copy current configuration. If you want to check the box with the space
bar then Next you will hear nvda say Start the new portable copy after
creation and you can if you want it to start check this box as well.
Then tab to continue then press the enter key it will now install nvda
to your usb stick in a folder called nvda on the e:\ drive and put all
the files into it.

After that has been done the next time you want to upgrade the version
of nvda while it is running from off the usb stick is go to the help
menu then check for updates. It will tell you if there is one. If there
is you can then download it to your usb stick. it will then give you a
message when it is down press the enter key on the ok button then
install it. It will update over the version that is on the usb stick
just like you do when you use the installer copy of nvda.

I put a audio tutorial up on the nvda audio tutorials page showing it
can be either done on a usb stick or off a portable version on the
computer.. I think in the tutorial it also shows how to post pone the
update 2.

I think the tutorial is called like the new update feature and post
poning a update but it is around the USB section on the page.

Hope the above helps.

Could some kind soul outline steps for upgrading an existing portable

direct its update path to, say, e:\nvda. Thanks in advance for your
guidance.

I'm wondering if he means if you are running a portable version. it will become a lot easier when this next update is released as you can actually download and install portable versions as it knows the path you are running it from, which makes things a whole lot nicer to do.
At the moment, if you have an older version, run it, do a check for updates and the download will end up being done in your default browser, then you can run it as before but you still need to tell it where to overwrite the version you were running. However if that new version is the current rc or master or next snap, you will find that as the download now is handled by the portable copy, it prompts only for install or postpone.
Most of the navigation and browsing for folders is gone, but you can still create new versions or indeed make an installed version from the copy as previously mentioned.

Subject: Re: [nvda] Easiest Way to Upgrade an Existing Portable Installation


Richard,

Well, you don't really update an existing portable copy of NVDA, you just re-create it either during your install of the NVDA update or afterward, following the directions below:

*Creating a Portable Copy of NVDA from the Installed Copy*

1. Open NVDA then the main NVDA menu (NVDA Key+N)

2. Down Arrow to the Tools Submenu, then right Arrow to open the Tools Submenu

3. Down arrow to the Create Portable Copy submenu item and activate.

4. In the Create Portable NVDA dialog, I find it easiest to navigate to the Browse button and activate same to get a Browse dialog to specify the folder where I want the portable copy to be placed. This is almost always a thumb drive or SD Card, but you can create it in a folder on your hard drive and later copy it elsewhere

5. If you wish to copy your current user configuration to the same folder along with the portable copy, then check the Copy current user configuration checkbox

6. If you wish to start the portable copy you're creating immediately after creating it, check the Start the new portable copy after creation checkbox

7. Navigate to the Continue button and activate. Your portable copy will be created in the location you specified in Step 3.
