Re: About Linux
Hello,
I also tried to spend a while looking at Linux, and I must admit it was quite disappointing. As a result, I became an even bigger Windows advocate. Some people love itthough, so if any of you

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
Hi Richard,
Believe me, I am still working on that one. If only one of my machines did it, it would be easier, but all three of mine fail miserably with NVDA and Explorer.
All the best

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
Hi Annette,
No, unfortunately, it doesn’t.
So if NVDA were my only screen reader at this point, I’d be royally stuffed, unless I reset my PC. But JAWS is working fine, so I don’t really

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
Hi Angela,
I have written many times before how NVDA doesn't cut it for the workplace,
so I'm not going to bring that up again now. But even basic things like
speaking single digits can't easily be

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
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.

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
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

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
OK, if you would make few examples of what you cannot do with nvda it would be appreciated.
Thank you.

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
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.

Re: Problems with NVDA and latest Windows 10 1803
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 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?
