Has anybody tried booting Windows and recovering from there? What I mean is, if you boot off of a Windows disk, DVD/USB/whatever, as though you were installing, you can run Narrator. I wonder if you c

You'd have to learn stuff again, but Reaper with OSARA is pretty much the successor to Sonar with CakeTalking. There's a helpful mailing list and everything. http://reaperaccessibility.com The group/m

Hi all. I'm back with another question. I've been using QBitTorrent for torrents, but so far as I can tell, the list of torrents is inaccessible. So I've been using the web interface. While that's acc

At least on my desktop, your addon mentions volume changes, e.g. "NVDA volume 60", but my synthesizer volume doesn't change. That's using the SAPI5 version of Eloquence, in case that matters. it seems

Weird! I'll have to go and try that because I'd think lowering the volume with the synth ring would do the exact same thing. Maybe they are lowered, but if so they're still significantly louder than s

Hi all. Pretty straightforward question, can it be done? I'm listening to some fairly faint videos so I have to crank my volume up. I lower the volume of my synth with the ring, but NVDA's sounds, e.g

Hitting NVDA-numpad 8 put me on "new firmware window", I assume that means that's the object it was on. NVDA-r still produced no results. I'm pretty sure I've tried routing to graphics on web pages to

Does Windows OCR show up in debug logging? I ask because I'm still encountering the situation where it pretty much does nothing. So I restarted with --disable-addons and --debug-logging to see if I co

Go into NVDA settings with NVDA-n and arrow to settings. the NVDA key is either numpad insert or caps lock, or both, and possibly regular insert as well. You can change speech rate Etc. quickly with t

Also, assuming she's talking about the flight simulator thingy, it's simviation, with an 's', not a 'c'. OneCore pronounces the version starting with an 's' correctly. It does indeed pronounce the ver

Out of curiosity, why doesn't the "Trust voice's language when processing characters and symbols" setting at least handle the expansion of abbreviations issue? I always wondered about that. Anyway, if

You've tried holding down the six modifier keys for a few seconds? Both shifts, alts, and controls. That doesn't always work but it sometimes does. This used to happen to me occasionally and I never d

Are those even used on unix systems anymore? I thought the email program was something else. In any case, have you tried Microsoft's Windows Subsystem for Linux? There are quite a few flavors. I haven

Thanks Gene! That works just fine. But interestingly, it's not only unlabeled, it just reads as "blank" for me, it doesn't show up as a button. That's probably why it never occurred to me to try it. N

Which Edge, the one that comes with Windows or the new chrome version? I have the one that comes with Windows. I could install Chrome I guess, or use Edge. But considering that Firefox works with ever

I know I've asked about this before, but since I just got another thing I want to check out and can't, here goes again. I'm using latest Firefox, 72.0.2, and NVDA 2019.2.1. What I used to do to make t

Hi all. I'm trying the Acapela addon. I found the following post. http://www.acapela-nvda.com/blog/2017/01/12/is-your-acapela-voice-laughing-or-crying-with-nvda/ My builtin.dict in c:\program files (x

Anybody have any tips? Since somebody asked about an addon, I was wondering how usable it was. The Windows 10 app seems pretty useless. I'm thinking of getting a Victor Stream so I'll need to know how

You wrote the following: " I then hit numpad / and got back to General Settings so, for fun, I double-left clicked again which should have put me back in General Settings. It just sat there and a Tab

There are soft synths that are accessible with Reaper. Also, you can use Cakewalk's soft synths in Reaper. Maybe not all of them, but some anyway, it's been a while since I looked into it. I won't say
