Re: file explorer
Jimmy Vonderlinden
I had this same problem , but within the network connections window. I got around it by bringing focus to the desktop, than alt tabbing back to the window, and than I was able to move through the list of wi-fi networks. Hope this helps someone

Re: NVDA Buzzing and Speaking in a Compressed Way During Keyboard Input on a Fast Laptop

Hey Luke? The file gives an unsupported video format error.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
My first thought is that you're running RealTeck & that you need an updated driver. You've also got some audio software on there called Nahemic, & it wants to optimize your audio experience. Do not, under any circumstances, allow that, as I will guarantee-told you it will be beyond suboptimal. It's kind of a b-word to navigate, too, unfortunately, but it is actually text-based, so object nav & the tab key are your friends. I realize the whole situation is unacceptable, unfortunately, I'm kind of committed till after New Year's day, so I'm not in a position to give much more help than this at present. Hopefully, though, it's enough to give you a nudge in the proper direction. If not, we can hopefully get together on the 2nd & troubleshoot this.

NVDA Buzzing and Speaking in a Compressed Way During Keyboard Input on a Fast Laptop
Luke Davis
Hello
Today I acquired an MSI laptop. Intel I7 Hexacore 2.6 GHZ (4.5 burst), 32 GB RAM, 64 bit. I ran 2019.2.1 as a portable without problem, and installed 2019.3 beta. Then I updated from Windows 110 Home 1709 to 1809, and noticed the following weird behavior. I subsequently updated to 1909, and nothing has changed. I have never seen this before. Using either ESpeak or OneCore, whenever I type quickly or move the mouse, I find that speech either hangs up in bad robotic sounding buzzes, or gets really "small", like a munchkin version of the synth in use. It is a bit hard to describe. So I made a small recording: http://newanswertech.com/Weird-NVDA1.m4a It happens always when I am typing quickly, or just moving quickly through a file list with the arrow keys. As you can hear from the file, it even happens periodically when I am typing slowly. This is really unacceptable. I purged 2019.3 and installed 2019.2.1, but the same behavior continues. If this were the old days, I would think there was some kind of IRQ conflict between the keyboard and the audio subsystem. It's been so long since I have had to solve that kind of problem though, that I'm not immediately sure how to diagnose it. Any thoughts would be welcome. Luke

Re: confused
hurrikennyandopo ...
Hi
I did have another problem that was simular but involved fire fox and thunder bird etc and was able to fix it.
Not sure but if you look at the following link at https://nvda.groups.io/g/nvda/topic/nvda_web_browser_problem/4415326?p=,,,20,0,0,0::recentpostdate%2Fsticky,,,20,2,140,4415326
I give steps on how to fix it but because no one else really had the same problem I did not put it up on my website under trouble shooting.
Look for hurrikenny and opo or gene nz it is near the top with steps.
You may have to refresh me on what is happening.

Re: confused

Hi
I am pretty sure when you uninstalled the maths player it uninstalled other stuff that if i remember right gave those similar results. Not sure if it is that ticket or not.
Was that around the time of the com fixing tool or earlier?
It was meant to have been fixed with the uninstall process.
I think at that time when you re installed maths player every thing went back to normal but sure was able to uninstall it at a later date with no problems?

Re: winamp is invisible with extention
Gene
Did the older one work properly? Is it still
available? If you have to use it with an older version of NVDA, do you want or
need the new version for any reason? Just because there is an update to
something doesn't necessarily mean you should use it and people would save
themselves trouble if they didn't reflexively update everything just because an
update is available. If the new update does nothing you want, you may be
better off leaving things as they are.

Sorry, it wasn't as obvious as I thought; that issue wasn't very clear.

I think this should be fixed in the tool, though; trying to walk someone through this can be difficult.

Re: confused
To be honest, I have had issues with file explorer off and on with the windows 19xxx releases. In 1909 its a hell of a lot better but its still about. Its also happened on multiple computers not just yours. I agree with the poster, a full reformat will probably make it go away though to be honest, I have been looking for a explorer replacement as I can't rely on it. It choaks with folders with single files, folders more than 2-5 levels deep, or if you have 1 or 2 folders open and you transfer to a third or another folder on another drive. It seems to half crash. The only thing that saves me from doing anything really drastic is that bar times where I transfer stuff about which I do off and on the shell is not used much. 99.9% of the time, my daily work involves using programs on the system or directly doing stuff I know the paths for. I don't need windows shell functions for most of my daily routeens. When I am doing admin stuff I usually don't need the shell at all and if I do its 1 folder and 1 window only either a usb or a download but to be honest most of that I can do with stuff on the system which do not need me to go to folders.

Re: confused
Tyler,
This is what's in the issue, and I quote: "On my win10 machine, this python console command fixes it if NVDA is run as administrator, but I forgot exactly what it does. It seems to return an error, but I'm not sure how to turn the int back into a HRESULT. However, it doesn't work on the win7 VM: import comtypes,ctypes;p=comtypes.typeinfo.LoadTypeLibEx(r"c:\windows\syswow64\oleacc.dll");ctypes.windll.oleaut32.RegisterTypeLib(p, ur"c:\windows\syswow64\oleacc.dll", None)" I'm sorry, but even as a computer geek with decades of experience it was not entirely clear to me under what conditions this worked, or didn't. And I doubt that most readers here, including myself, have Python console expertise or even a moment's experience, which matters. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1909, Build 18363 Most of the change we think we see in life is due to truths being in and out of favor. ~ Robert Frost, The Black Cottage (1914)

Re: confused

This Python console command, as it says in the issue:

import comtypes,ctypes;p=comtypes.typeinfo.LoadTypeLibEx(r"c:\windows\syswow64\oleacc.dll");ctypes.windll.oleaut32.RegisterTypeLib(p, ur"c:\windows\syswow64\oleacc.dll", None)</p> I know from personal experience that at least that works. Of course, you could reproduce the issue to figure out which one of the many suggestions actually fixes things.

Re: confused

I saw that but I thought you were sayng that you
would repair Windows as a first option. Evidently, you weren't saying
that.
I don't recall what corrected the problem, though I
recall seeing a message about it perhaps two days ago.

But running the registration fixing tool is fast and easy and would take much less time than the Windows correcting procedures.Which, Gene, as I and the original poster have already stated, has been done, at least once and now possibly twice, to no effect. See: https://nvda.groups.io/g/nvda/message/68112 including the quote of Tyler's suggestion at the bottom. Doing it again is not likely to have any effect.

If the problem were only the treeview, it would be
unlikely to correct it, but when browser problems that are typical of
unregistered dll files started to be discussed, then I think that should have
been tried first.

I cannot discount Tyler’s comment though, as whatever he did cured it.And I'm not, either, but I am always one who takes the "path of least resistance" first. I've just seen too many problems, of too many varieties, never be fixable except by trying to clean up Windows first, so I always do that since it's simple.
