Re: Facebook with NVDA

Hi
I started uploading some of it last night, the page is under construction but the page is up there ready to go.
More will be add in the next night or so it is written up, it just needs some editing and page formatting for the web page. From what I have read from what you want to do it should cover most of it but have not worked out how to do the private chat one yet as I have had no need for it so did not find out how to do it and that is as if you can with a screen reader. The tutorial is done from a blind user prospective and not a sighted persons prospective.
Hope it will help other users as well a friend of mine just signed up and wanted to know as well so i was putting to gather some information for him to use face book as well.
I usually only read some of the articles reply to messages etc now and again or post when there is a release of NVDA or a new tutorial or some thing to go up on the website.

Arlene, Yes, at least up through Outlook 2013. I haven't tried this post the 2013 version, but given how old the Trust Center is and that these particular settings for Protected View haven't changed in eons I'd presume it probably holds all the way up through the current version. As I noted, you do have to do this in each and every office program where you want this feature turned off. I worry a lot. . .

Yes, I like using the caps lock a lot better, because it is right by where you type and is easy to get to. I even like using the laptop mode with JAWS so much better, because you can use the caps lock with JAWS if it is on the laptop layout. Take care all.

Arlene, Brian, etc.
I activated menu ribbon, arrowed across to file,
arrowed down, until found options, and hit enter.
Then ctrl + tab until it focused on trust
center.
Then tabbed over to trust center settings button,
and hit space, and in the dialogue that came up, hit ctrl+tab until it focused
on protected view, there are various checkboxes, either related directly to
something like outlook, or else just relating to generally internet-sourced
documents, and you can turn on, or off those that you want to, and then just tab
over to Ok button, hit space, and do same once or twice more for other
dialogues, and, think should be sorted now.
So, thanks, again...<smile>

Well, that is true. Like the saying goes. If it's not broke don't fix it.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
But not always true. Sites change and so does the code! So, we have to go with the changes weather we like it or not!There is nothing we can do about it! I don't know if it's just Microsoft doing it. But I think the code changes to prevent hackers. Still they find ways to do their dirty work. Also like cars. Computers age as we use them to do what we want them to do! Just my 2 cents!

Sharni-Lee (and other interested parties), Here are the step-by-step directions I've put together for this since the question gets asked repeatedly: To turn off Protected Mode for Downloaded MS-Office Documents This applies in Word, Excel, Access, etc. You have to do this in each program where you want the nag off. 1. File Menu, Options Item 2. In Options Dialog, Trust Center Pane 3. Once Trust Center Pane is up, activate Trust Center Settings button (or Hit ALT+T) 4. In Trust Center Settings, Protected View Pane 5. In Protected View Pane, under the Protected View Group, uncheck whichever of the protected views you’d prefer not to deal with. Leave the Data Execution Prevention Group untouched (and this feature is enabled by default). Note well: If you disable Protected View then be very, very certain that you trust the source of the file you intend to open, whether it was sent as an e-mail attachment or downloaded. Ideally, it should be virus scanned, at a minimum, before you consider opening it. On many computers your antivirus software or security suite automatically scans anything you download and if you’re sure your setup does this you are reasonably safe in opening files acquired from sources you trust. -- I worry a lot. . .

Re: Disable protection in a word document that you received via e-mail, etc.
Jacob, You also have the option to turn Protected View off as the default in Trust Center settings. I do this routinely since any file that I get, whether as an e-mail attachment or via download from the internet, is scanned by my antivirus before I ever have a chance to open it. I also don't grab MS-Word files "at random" from the internet or open attachments from unknown sources so the risk is minimal to begin with. I worry a lot. . .
