NVDA and ccleaner
|
Don H
downloaded and install the latest free version of ccleaner. I selected the registry option and did a scan. It found several items but I can not get NVDA to read the list of what it found.
Running Win 10 1903 and NVDA 2019.2.1 Thanks

In general, its better not to run a registry
cleaner unless you have a problem that there is reason to believe is a registry
problem. and, according to an article I will reproduce below, most
problems aren't registry probems.
In the old days, when computers were much slower
and Windows may not have worked with the registry as efficiently, it may be that
using a registry cleaner may have increased performance. I don't know
if that is true but it hasn't been true for a long time. I'm talking about
the dark ages, when computers ran at something like 166mhz. Now, computers
run in the ghz range, 100 or more times faster.
Here is an article supporting my view. It is
a contraversial question, but I have never heard a convincing argument to the
contrary and I don't believe in taking even small risks for no benefit.

Clleaner is almost fully unaccessible; nvda or another screenreader cannot do anything about it. It is their choice not to be accessible.
