Hi.

Still have issue with the current NVDA and amazon.com search. JAWS works
well in the search field. Yet NVDA does not work. I thought this was fix but
not. Is this will be fix? Also NVDA in IE has issues with stopping when I
hold control voice does not stop talk.

Can you please provide repro steps, screenshot, and/or video demo?
Thanks!

I think thebiggest issue would be that windows itself on that amount of ram might be a bit limited itself. also I'd get a wireless keyboard as my one experience of trying nvda with touch was that its not very usable for whatever reason.
Mind you I might just be a bit biased against touch screens...:-)

Hi, Kenny,


I think NVDA should be able to run on it ok. Maybe someone else can jump
in and correct me if I'm wrong.

Hello,


Has your friend checked what version of Windows 10 his/her laptop is running?


If it isn't the latest one - 1607 -, he/she should update Windows 10 to that version.


I had friends who had the same problem, and it was automatically solved by updating the OS.

Hi all,


Here is what happens.

Someone I know has just purchased a new laptop running Windows 10.

He installed NVDA and has problems with Firefox and Thunderbird.

When pressing alt to get to the menus in both applications, menu items are not spoken, NVDA simply says "unknown".

Same problem occurs with LibreOffice menus.

As I never encountered this problem, I would like to know if someone already got this, and what solution was found.

Reading the NVDA log does not seem to reveal any particular problem, so we don't know what to do.

In chrome, every window you open becomes a whole new process, so you
would treate multiple chrome windows just like multiple programs. Just
use the alt-tab, and toggle through all the programs to find the other
chrome sessions. I don't know why it's done this way, but that's how
it's handled, so just treat each open page like a different program,
and you're all set.

Hi Adriano,



Thanks for the recent Weather Plus Update. I sure wish I knew why
the barometric readings are always wrong for my zip code/location.
They are still always about .6 to .7 Inches too low.

Have you tried resetting Firefox? Particularly if you use add-ons or

how accessible it is since I haven't played with it in ages.

Hi Rosemarie,


Strangely, simply upgrading Windows 10 to Anniversary update fixed the problem.

Previously, he tried several times to uninstall and reinstall the problematic softwares without any result.

I guess some component is not installed or not correctly registered in the Windows preinstalled on the computer.

Maybe your friend can try doing a clean install of both firefox and thunderbird. Hopefully that should solve the problem.
