OK … this admission is going to cause me no end of grief and embarrassment but I always do try to be as honest and transparent as I can. When I was on the donation page after selecting the Download op

Hi. As I wanted to upgrade my copy of NVDA from the release candidate to the final 2020.4 release I decided to download the executable file from the Web site so that I could access it offline in the e

Hi, Steve. In no way do I wish to invalidate your experiences with NVDA and Outlook. In some respects NVDA's access to Outlook messages could be improved. However, I just received an email newsletter

Chris, I usually press control with down arrow to select files contiguously. I’m not familiar with adding the shift key to perform this task, at least if we’re talking about File Explorer. David Goldf

Betsy, First, it's not clear what settings your daughter may have exported or transferred to your new laptop. If this has not already been done it might be best to download and install a fresh copy of

Admittedly, I have not worked with the Windows version of Wordperfect in 20 years as a student I was working with used it for her word processor. At that time it had the old school menu bar interface

Hi. Office Home and Student normally sells for just under $150.00 but it's currently still on sale for a little under $100.00. Comes with Word, Excel and Powerpoint. David Goldfield, Blindness Assisti

I'll definitely report back on what I find and will try the equivalent of object navigation on other screen readers. Otherwise, I'll get assistance from AIRA. David Goldfield, Blindness Assistive Tech

While I don't want to stray off of the subject of NVDA I did want to point out that there are actually two Thunderbird discussion lists out there. The first is the Support-Thunderbird list, which is o

It's interesting that this topic has come up. I've been using Thunderbird for around ten years and I'm currently running it on a system that was probably build around 2007 or 2008 which I bought refur

Well, my copy of the Eloquence/Vocalizer voices allows for two versions, embedded pro, which is smaller in size, and embedded high. The embedded pro voices sound a bit like the compact voices. Are the

Actually, the Eloquence/Vocalizer NVDA voices from Code Factory are supplied with both the compact as well as the higher quality Vocalizer voices. David Goldfield, Blindness Assistive Technology Speci

Hi. I think this may be happening because you are initially focused on the address bar when you open a new tab. Press the tab key to move your focus away from the address bar and onto the actual page

Ron, I suspect that this may be neither an NVDA bug or a bug in Thunderbird. I've seen this with some mailing lists and I suspect this has to do with which headers are being made available. I would re

Deborah, regarding other speech options you can purchase licenses for Nuance Vocalizer voices as well as Acapela, both of which offer Spanish options. This link takes you to the page where you can pur

I recently had to create a new user account on my PC in order to correct a problem which I won't go into in this message as the problem had nothing at all to do with NVDA. Once I did this I noticed sn
