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

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

Huh! I didn't even know that existed. FYI, there are two radio buttons, "immediately on display" and "after (X) seconds". Mine was set to "immediately on display", so I can see how there would be a pr

I figured I'd write a quick update, since my version of Thunderbird just updated when I checked mail. Other than having to close and restart to get the folder tree with inbox and so on to read instead

Thanks, I'll take a look at Firefox. I didn't even think about it until I wrote my question last night.

I just downloaded NVDA 2019.3beta2 and told it to continue running. I'm running Thunderbird 60.9.1, 32-bit if it matters. Message statuses work fine for me with up and down arrows, I didn't even have

I don't have Windows PE, but Narrator can read a lot of Windows now. For instance, if you have to do an install from scratch, or a reset, Narrator can read that. It can't read the menu that let's you

For SAPI 5 Eloquence, you can arrow through the main languages, e.g. US English, German, and so on. But there's no way to get to the voices like Reed, Glenn, and so on from NVDA. You have to open the
