Re: Issues with NVDA on Windows Logon Screen
hi. i checked Use currently saved settings on the logon and other secure screens (requires administrator privileges) but dont recieve error. whats the problem with activating this option?

If you find the copy current config to system goes on forever, then do an
alt tab and you will see errors hidden behind the dialogue on screen.
Eventually I renamed the .dic file causing the issue manually by going into
my named user option and navigating to the right folder there.
However, I wonder if you installed nvda with the correct user privs in the
first place?

Use NVDA on the Windows logon screen (requires administrator privileges)
and also Use currently saved settings on the logon and other secure

a bit off top, question about free youtube to mp3 converter
I use NVDA for everything and am so greatful for all the programers/developers. Question, I need a list to contact regarding the Free youtube to mp3 converter. I have put together a book called “making computers fun” that includes a chapter using that [program with NVDA for low vision or totally blind seniors. However, with the recent upgrade, I don’t want to remain too much off topic to long. But in short the results of keystrokes that once worked are not. I have tried contacting support with no help. Does anyone use the program extensively and would be willing to communicate with me off list? Thanks for the modoriator’s patience and those listers getting this message.

Brian's Mail list account <bglists@...>
I just downloaded this in the hope it would give me a fall back if anything happened to my Outlook Express. However I am still struggling with its interface.
Is there a simple to follow from the keyboard tutorial? I have put in my email account, a gmail one on imap for now just to test it, but it keeps on popping up messages about external content in the emails and complaining its not able to get some mail that I know is there and the way to simply read emails without getting involved with today yesterday and sorting seems to be very labour intensive. Is there a way to strip it down, so one can simply use it to see the tree of foldeers, open a folder run up and down the list inside and open and reply to messages without fuss and messing about?

Well just used it in windows 7. I used the portable version. the best thing about this is that though you kind of install it, it keeps all its paths and registry stuff local and not in the basic system area on your pc, so no issues with uninstalling it, just like the portable nvda.

Re: Does Anyone Else Have This Bug in Firefox Using NVDA?
Brian's Mail list account <bglists@...>
Yes but I do not want that, and indeed now run 32 bit on my 64 bit windows 7 machine and its far more stable for me at least. It can be done if you download the offline installer, ie the files that install it rather than the stub they use to decide. I think its clever enough that it won't enforce a 64 bit install if a 32 bit is already there. to me the problem is this. Nvda and a lot of other software is 32 bit often they get too use a core and that is that, in 64 bit apps like the 64 bit
Firefox, it can use many cores and hence slow other things running in those cores as most machines do not multithread but simply time slice the processor.
I suspect this is what the problem often is, Microsofts operating system though able to run both types of software is not so clever that it can protect one thing over another. The main thing about using 64 bit apps is that they can use more memory directly addressed from the system than a 32 bit can of course.
I'm not sure why any browser would need to have access to such huge lumps of memory myself.. grin.

hi.
libreoffice is fork of openoffice, but now i believe that libreoffice
is very stable in compare to openoffice!it works very better, the
features are more and in some aspects, there catogory is better to
understand.
if you want to download the last stable version of libreoffice for
32bit windows, here you are the link!
now openoffice and libreoffice dont require java and access briedge to
work.

Is Open Office and Libra Office the same thing? Some years ago, I tried

use open office and had no success. Just now I installed Libra Office on

Anyone had experience with that? Thanks.

I don't think so actually. I know plenty of sighted people using Open
Office and Libra Office with no issues
My feeling on this is that its getting very complicated to hook into
processes that are both part of windows and may also be being used by
applications.Those with long memories will remember display chain
drivers
in XP and earlier, where any piece of software that needed access to
the
screen output had to hook in through a piece of software loaded at boot
time. The snag often was that some software did not do this well and
the
whole thing slowed down or fell over.
If you are screen scraping this video monitoring was often the only way
to
get at content for screenreaders. I can well recall that some upper end
graphics cards used by gamers had non standard drivers and the display
chain programs never worked right on them.
I suspect these days especially with ported programs like Open Office
that
there are similar issues due to the portability of some of the code to
other operating systems.
Just my thoughts.

The issue with 56 is really one of where it focuses by default. It has
a work around but is just annoying. I'm no6t certain why it was not
back ported, but then programmers can sometimes work in mysterious ways.
There is nothing wrong with 55, and indeed on the older operating
systems now not supported by nvda, you can only have 52 or 48
depending on your processor and they seem to work OK as well.

I know it's in there somewhere probably under Options which may be in
Tools but the options has many tabs and one of them has a check box
for automatically downloading and installing updates and I have mine
unchecked but I can always do updates manually at any time. When I
hear of a version that isn't very screen reader friendly, I just wait
a few weeks or maybe a month or so until the next update comes out
and then get that.
Hope this helps you locate it but maybe someone else here can give
you more exact instructions as to how to get to that little check box.

Hi list,
After reading the list discussion about Firefox v56, I am wondering
how to adjust the setting to avoid automatic updates.
I use NVDA exclusively as my screen reader.
I am using Firefox 55.3, 32bit on a Windows7 machine.
How can I set Firefox to let me know about available updates tut to
let me manually decide whether or not to update?
Thanks!

Re: Issues with NVDA on Windows Logon Screen
hi.
please check also Automatically start NVDA after I log on to Windows.
Use NVDA on the Windows logon screen (requires administrator privileges)
and also Use currently saved settings on the logon and other secure

i am not familiar with u.ac, but i think turning on all the items

Re: NVDA hot keys equivalent to Window-Eyes
Hi!
If I am not mistaken:
Read active window Control-shift- w
NVDA + B
Speak summary control-shift-s
I suppose this function is not available in NVDA!
Title/status of current active programme control-shift t
NVDA+T
status line control-insert-s
NVDA+End
highlighted block control-shift-m If you mean the selected text, NVDA+Shift+UpArrow
field data control-shift-d
field name control-shift-n
I suppose both are included in NVDA+Tab.
