overly talkative Thunderbird after recent updates

The new version should install over top of the old one. I've never had to remove the old one first. You shouldn't have to deactivate your license key either, although some people do that just to be sa

All you need to do is go to the CodeFactory website and download the latest version of the addon. Once you've installed that, you should then be able to update NVDA without losing access to your voice

NVDA on Patreon?
For what it's worth, donating through PayPal isn't that hard if you have it linked to a bank account. I'm in Canada and have been donating monthly for several years that way. PayPal just does the conv

Code Factory voices with NVDA 2022.1
Perhaps a silly question, but have you checked your settings within the Codefactory add-on to make sure you're still using the voice you think you are? For some reason, whenever I update it, it change

CodeFactory Eloquence with NVDA 2022.1?
Unfortunately you can't. It seems like very obvious functionality though and I really wish they would add it. Steve

NVDA's handling of checkboxes especially in Google Chrome
I've used Firefox and NVDA together for the better part of the last decade and have had few if any problems with the combo. It's all subjective I know, but I much prefer Firefox to Chrome. I find it r

Does the latest release play nicely with Firefox? And the addon stuff isn't yet relevant if I update now, correct?
I'm curious what is supposed to be wrong with NVDA and Firefox in the latest versions? I'm fairly new to the group here, but I've used NVDA and Firefox happily together for years, always updating to t

seeing entire file names in a torrent contents list in uTorrent
It's a big chunk of the file name, including the extension. The extension isn't the important part in this case though, it's the large missing chunks of the file names. Steve

Code Factory Voices no longer working?
In my experience it hasn't been a common problem. I've had it once in 4 years. But yes, they absolutely need a better system. Steve

It should. If it happens to you like it happens to me you'll be unable to do anything at first because a please register message will irritatingly block everything you do, but once you reload NVDA it

Are there up to date add-ons for Winamp?
Unless something has changed, Winamp isn't out of support. It was updated to version 5.8 back in 2019 and I believe there are still plans for it. Odd that the add-on works for some and not for others.
