The only addons I have installed are a few extra synthesisers (including the one that lets me read Japanese since espeak doesn't do that on its own), and the emoticon dictionary. The biggest of those

It just happened AGAIN. This time, with no Braille Display plugged in, but still in Word. My sister described what she saw as "It's circling and the screen is foggy," so I'm assuming it was hanging. I

Just tried another thing that consistently got NVDA to hang recently, namely, opening the sounds manager in Control Panel and then arrowing to the Sound Scheme tab. I thought it only did this because

If the master snapshots fixed it, does this mean the next release (which is hopefully coming sometime this month or next) will have the fix? Because if so, I can just change the configuration so I hav

Hi Brian, That does seem to match up with my mother's description of what was going on on the screen. I'm going to start connecting it manually instead of having it be connected at startup and NVDA co

No, I do not have a backup screen reader. NVDA is the only free one I know of and I am happy with it. I considered getting a Braille Display more beneficial than Jaws, which I would have to pay $500 p

Or I could just not have the display plugged in at startup and only connect it when I want to use it. :D Thank you for your insight, though. :D

Hi, Yes, but you have Windows 10. I have 7. So I didn't botch the installation or something? That's my biggest fear right now, that I somehow botched something when I was setting up my Braille Display

Hi, In a recent snapshot I downloaded (in early March, I believe it was) there were new experimental Braille tables added that were an improvement on the UEB table currently in the official release of

Okay, I got the log entry! Here is what it says. INFO - __main__ (06:55:25): Starting NVDA INFO - core.main (06:55:38): Config dir: C:\Users\pc\AppData\Roaming vda INFO - core.main (06:55:38): NVDA ve

Hi, Yes, NVDA freezes, and during the last two times this happened, Word froze as well. Other things worked but my mother had to navigate the computer because I could hear nothing. This is, however, n

Hi, Windows 7, Ms word 2013 (although it doesn't always happen in Word. It just did the last two times), NVDA 2016.1, the display is connected via USB and I'm using the Unified English Grade 2 table f

It just happened again, again while I was writing. My mother came to help me again and tried to save my work. Word wouldn't respond. She tried to exit NVDA mannually, but it wouldn't allow her to do t

I've mentioned this before, but it's been weeks and I don't know if I got any more useful help after Joseph said to submit a log entry. Which given the nature of my problem, I doubt would work. Since

GAH, I hate Speech Platform! No matter what I do, they won't pronounce the "n" in my name! I have tried every possible combination of letters in the speech dictionary to get it to say my name, but whe

I've been out of the loop for a bit due to emails piling up and then Outlook being a pain (which eventually led to me getting Thunderbird just so I could access my emails). So, what's this about NVDA

I'm just opening my email inbox page in my browser (Firefox), as I've done since Outlook was Hotmail and I opened it through Windows Live Messenger. I don't have an app for my desktop or anything, as

Hi, I've just this morning tried to check my Emails for the first time in weeks (life's been hectic) and what with the new layout of Outlook, I don't know how to do anything! This site used to be so b

Hello, I've mentioned this before, but as it happened again this morning and it was really frustrating I'm mentioning it again. Since I've gotten my Braille Display (a Focus 40 Blue), NVDA keeps freez
