Martin It is probably an application specific command. NVDA would only have a command like that if it had been defined in some add-on. Windows would only have a command like that if it was defined on

You don't have to uncheck them, if you don't mind just pressing enter on the error messages. Nothing bad will happen. Luke

I used Open Office Calc (their version of Excel) for years with quite a bit of success with NVDA. People say that LibreOffice is better now, and I can not comment on that since I haven't used it, but

May I suggest you raise an issue about this on https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues This seems connected to other things that have been pointed out there, and which elements NVDA reads is certainly

Press Windows, and type: sound The first thing should be sound in settings. Press enter on that. You should then find that your primary output device is selected automatically from the dropdown provid

Got it in one! I completely forgot about that setting, since I don't have it on my primary laptop. Well, former primary laptop. That took care of the issue, and all it cost was a 10DB loss of maximum

Hi Jackie and others I have made a new recording, and saved it as MP3 to prevent any file type problems. This one is a demonstration of moving down through the NVDA folder in %appdata%, followed by so

Hello Today I acquired an MSI laptop. Intel I7 Hexacore 2.6 GHZ (4.5 burst), 32 GB RAM, 64 bit. I ran 2019.2.1 as a portable without problem, and installed 2019.3 beta. Then I updated from Windows 110

This is a week old, but nobody answered. So... What are you trying to drag and drop? Sometimes there is another way. Luke

Brian That add-on was old. Very old. As in 2014 levels of old. Its functionality had been long since absorbed into NVDA. It is very hard to think of a reason to have preserved it. Luke

Unfortunately, any 2017 version is so very out of date, that you will likely find yourself with many other problems as a result. Downgrading that far on any modern operating system is not a good idea.

Hi All A couple days ago, I created a portable version of the 2019.3 beta. After it started running, I got a sudden drop in volume, maybe by about 30%. Now, across several reboots, and reverting back

Only in consoles. Not in general. A bit incomplete perhaps, but that's how it is.

Disregard that comment--I forgot that touch support isn't available in portables, which is how I was running the beta. Luke

Molly An idea comes to mind as something to try for you. If you are running NVDA stable (2019.2.1, for example), you can do this. I believe it doesn't work in the beta currently. If you press NVDA+n,

This is not the same as NVDA losing focus, and being fixed with an alt+tab. That is an entirely different problem. This is NVDA losing the ability to recognize all gestures. For example, if you are in

You're not the only one to ever see it. I have had it happen many times, though not even as predictably as yours, and primarily in Firefox. I have always, without fail, been in a hurry, and been unabl

What is your logging level set to under general? And for all our sakes, please consider changing the subject when you're getting specific about a question on someone's announcement thread. Thread-jack

The usual advice is to use the OpenVPN client instead--it works with many VPNs in place of their own software, and is supposed to be more accessible. Luke

Can you tell me the brands and maybe even model numbers? From the research I've been doing in the last couple hours, it seems to be that most external numpads just send the keyboard version of the num
