Yes, the program which was supplied with JAWS and which is still preinstalled with JAWS is called HJPad. It is pretty much Wordpad but with a spell checker. As far as I know there is no way to acquire

I am happy to report that v1.6.3 of the Acapela driver has fixed the problem of the exit sound not being heard when exiting or when restarting NVDA. When I first loaded the Acapela voices there was so

Vlad, as I do have the Acapela voices installed this certainly gives me a clue as far as what to look for. If I find that the Acapela driver is causing this to occur I will certainly write to them abo

Vlad, you are absolutely right. Once I disabled the Acapela driver and restarted NVDA the exit sounds work. Enabling the driver then stops the sound from being played. It's worth noting that I am runn

Admittedly, this is not a major problem but I've recently noticed that when I press ctrl+Q I no longer hear the wav file that is normally heard when exiting or closing NVDA. The wav file does exist in

Hi. In a previous message I wrote about my frustration regarding noticeable sluggishness when navigating character by character in a Microsoft Word document. In yet another thread I wrote a workaround

>well, I got the file using google chrome and it came out as usual, I was using internet explorer before and some how the file extention was changed by the server. Larry, when you say that the file ca

Larry, this is very odd. When I download the main engine the file name is Acapela TTS Voices for NVDA - Engines-1.6 (2).nvda-addon The only reason that the (2) characters are contained in the name of

I have occasionally encountered this problem and not just with NVDA as the screen reader. The alt-tab solution will certainly work. However, what usually works for me is to press the alt key twice. Th

Larry, I'm a bit confused by your message as addons for NVDA don't have a .man extension. Have you downloaded 1.6.2 from this page?

Hello. I think that we may need some additional information as there are things you have written that I honestly am not following. NVDA does have what is called a screen review mode. However, this aff

Hi. Responding publicly as others may also be interested in this question. The Eloquence voices from NVDA work well on the systems which I've used with it. I did not purchase the SAPI5 voices but inst

This problem is not just an NVDA issue but is more of a problem with Teams and it's one which Microsoft is aware of, although I'm somewhat mystified that it's taken this long for a fix to be deployed

I hadn't but did so after reading your suggestion. It's possible that I'm noticing a slight amount of improvement since doing so and so I appreciate the advice. After comparing NVDA's performance in W

Gene, I will admit that the speed of my older OptiPlex desktop may well be a factor and I may just have to accept that fact. However, and I hesitate to say this as I don't wish to start a comparison w

First, I will say that this issue only seems to manifest on my Dell Optiplex 740, a machine which some might consider to be ancient by today's standards. I don't seem to have this problem on my much n

I've filed a new bug with Mozilla documenting these issues.

For me, the additional Onedrive space is very attractive as my wife and I use it to access files on our respective devices. I may be wrong about this but you may not always receive accessibility fixes

You are correct but what you won't receive are new features, which are not usually added to perpetual licenses of Office such as Office 2016. David Goldfield, Blindness Assistive Technology Specialist

Hello. At one point I thought that the NV Access Web site had a place for archiving older NVDA releases. I can no longer find it and I have a need to temporarily run 2019.3 as a portable copy for a br
