NVDA sometimes loses control and needs to be restarted
Yes, I've seen it happen with rapid typing in a few programs as well, I'm not sure the cause. I haven't been able to duplicate it recently, but I'll see if I can get a log the next time it happens. I

How works the Windows 10 app essential?
I am not sure precisely what the differences are between NVDA with and without Windows 10 essentials. I just install it because it supposedly helps with things, but I don't really use any Windows 10 u

Braille display not working on websites
What is it exactly that you think isn’t working? What movement keys and what are they doing? I use braille with NVDA and the Braille Extender add-on for everything. It seems to work quite well here.

Chromeium edge release date announced.
Do you know if it has a keyboard shortcut for reader mode? I didn’t see one. Also don’t see an option to just open a blank page in new tabs. Did I miss something?

Using HumanWare Brailliant BI 40 with NVDA
So are you saying the command keys only work with the HumanWare protocol? That's good to know.

I'm not sure. I have all three of those voices here, and I just installed them in the same manner you describe. But, weirdly, the default is always the UK voice, because Windows does not have a Canada

I don’t think NVDA can do that because I don’t think Windows knows about the braille display. The only reason Windows doesn’t go to sleep for speech is because it’s running through the sound card. But

Braille Input Inaccuracy
