Is 2019.1 still going to be compatible with Windows 7? Because I'm still using Win 7 on my current computer. It's really wonderful to hear some more hopeful/positive words on this topic. I've been hea

Hi, I haven't updated NVDA since 2018.1 due to issues that seemed to crop up around every release. Now I'm hearing from others in a Skype group I'm a member of that NVDA has been going downhill since

I have a couple addons that are several years old that I want to keep, so I'm guessing I shouldn't update NVDA at this time...
But Win 7 stops being supported in a year. What point is there in getting another Win 7 computer if I run the risk of something going wonky because I'm on an outdated system?

Tips for speed reading /listening with screen readers
I don't try to listen at faster speeds than the default. How the hell can you notice a flutter when the speech is so fast the words run together?

Microsoft is Killing Skype Classic on September 1 -

In relation to pronounciation corrections in eSpeak NG once more
This sounds like a good idea, to be honest. Most of my dictionary entries are related to either Pokémon, names of characters from a couple other anime, and corrections to help Espeak handle compound w

I take it there have been no improvements to the flawed espeak ng in 2017.4?
Funny the things you start tuning out after a while. The Roman Numerals thing can be a bit irritating sometimes, but that's been around since I first started using Espeak and at the time, I was so hap

Correction, I have a github account that I just found again. I'd clean forgotten the password but I was able to recover it. I'll have to make several separate issues to cover the things I've noticed.
