Hello Gene and list, yes, this is normal behavior. When you run NVDA from the installer, it uses the preferences stored in your user profile just like an installed version would, Best, Felix Am Mi., 7

Hi! I've been reading along and I know this feeling. I often refer to it as the user experience that nobody designed. On the one hand there's a screen reader developer, on the other there's an app dev

Hello! I have observed these freezes in a few instances, and in all of them the computer was low on available cpu resources. Could the problem be related to the watchdog? What if the watchdog kicked i

Hi! As an amateur musician I'd love to know this too. I've been considering having a good look at Band In A Box for some time now, but while my schedule would allow it in principle, I want to spend th

Hi Ron, if you type those lines exactly as shown, chances of destroying anything are minimal. In case you do somehow screw up in Python Console, usually you can remedy the situation by simply restarti

Hi! I would be pragmatic about it. If it is visually gone then announcing it is, by definition, incorrect screen reader behavior regardless of conditions. Invisible windows are not a valid metaphor in

Hi! That's exactly what it is. NVDA's focus tracking is slightly broken, as I reported in 2018: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/8389 The window is not actually still there, it's just that the

Hi! Nothing inherently evil about comparisons is there? If someone else can do it, this means it can be done, which in itself is a valuable data point. It is in our best interest to compare our tools,

Hi, this one was gone for some time but it has a way of reappearing. If I'm not mistaken, it's a string which got translated when it shouldn't have been. Best, Felix Am Fr., 6. März 2020 um 08:36 Uhr

Hello Sandra, the installation failed because NVDA was unable to create its desktop shortcut, for reasons I cannot begin to guess. I can think of two options: 1. Install without creating a desktop sho

I don't think the speech refactor affects specific synths, so the Espeak issues described here are probably the result of an Espeak update or a subtle sound driver issue. I'm guessing though, so use g
