nvda remote version 2.2 bug
Josh Kennedy
Hi, I tried connecting to a friend’s computer. F11 no longer works to give me remote keyboard control. Is this a bug? Can it please be fixed if it is?

Are you using thelatest nvda remote add on? If not try updating and see if you have any errors. Take care

I just tried it, works fine. A couple of things I'd check are.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
1. Did your friend allow it through Windows Firewall? As soon as I connected, this was running it on a machine for the first time, Windows Security popped up with a message that it was being blocked and asking me if I wanted to allow it. 2. You're sure F11 is actually F11? On some keyboards, notably laptops and Microsoft Wave, you need to do something to get actual function keys. With laptops it's usually hitting the FN key in conjunction with the function key you want. On Microsoft Wave keyboards, there's a key to the right of F12 that toggles between regular function keys and other functions like opening your mail program or such, I forget what they do because I don't use them.

maybe that is it. maybe he did not let it through windows firewall on his end. i put NVDA remote on his computer because he is not very good with computers and sometimes i have to remote in and hellp him out of some situations he gets into by accident.
