You are correct but what you won't receive are new features,
which are not usually added to perpetual licenses of Office such

I am reawakening an old thread. I have a customer who has updated to NVDA 2020 and needs a copy of the latest vocaliser add-on. Does anyone know where it can be downloaded from? The dropbox link provided a few months ago is no longer valid. The vocaliser website hasn't been updated either. Very best wishes, Mo.

Thanks for the advice. My progress bar is set correctly so it does read the progress randomly. I tried to use the screen and object review in Defender with no success. Objec review only focuses the cursor on the “cancel button” and screen review only says “blank.”

Hello list,
I am running the latest versions of both Windows 10 and NVDA.
When a virus scan with Windows Defender is being performed, NVDA does not read the progress bar of the scan. Is there a way to read the progress bar since object and screen review do not work.
Lastly, why is NVDA sluggish when typing in Microsoft 365? While I am typing this email, NVDA gets way behind my typing speed.
Kind regards to all and stay healthy.

Can the "highlight browse mode cursor" feature be customized (color)?
It's nice that the "focus highlight" addon is implemented directly in NVDA now, as of 2019.3. Github issue 9064 notes, "The current highlighter colors might be difficult for some people to see. In the future, I'd like this to be configurable."
Having the color configurable in the settings dialog is obviously ideal but in the meantime is there a config file somewhere that could be manually changed to control the color? Specifically, the browse mode cursor is a yellow rectangle by default. Since many webpages have a white background, the yellow is difficult to see (as noted in github). I'm hoping the highlight colors aren't hardcoded into the app but rather come from a config file.

Here's an issue for this: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/10401
Ralf - there are a couple of issues with drop-down lists in Excel that I know of (this one, I thought was newish, but there is one with lists not reading in Excel 2013 specifically, and another one for items in drop down lists being read out twice which is also still present). If your issue is among those then hopefully its scope is captured there, otherwise do let us know what you are experiencing to make sure we are aware of it).
For this particular bug, pressing ALT twice is one way of overcoming it (or alt+tab twice as suggested elsewhere).

Re: Office 365 with NVDA
Morne van der Merwe
Hello Denis,
Just for interest: Office 365’s name has changed at the beginning of May to Microsoft 365. I can really recommend it because you are always up to date with the newest features and updates.
I don’t know where you live, but in South Africa, a Microsoft package can be very expensive. For me to pay a small amount per month for 365 is more cost effective. So another advantage is that it will not hurt your wallet.
Take care
