Windows 10: Notifications Repeating Themselves


Rob
 

I run a program called Pop Peeper:
www.Esumsoft .com/
This is an email notifier. When it receives new messages, it pops up balloon tips, or what are called toasts now I guess.
Now, however, on windows 10, if you restart Pop Peeper, the notifications it sends out are repeated by NVDA. If you restart the program again, the notifications are repeated three times.
The only way to make this stop is by restarting NVDA. I talked to the developer of this program and he can't repeat this with narrator. I don't know of any other app which regularly sends out balloon tips/toasts in order to test the theory that it is this mechanism which causes the behavior.

This is an NVDA issue that I raised. Hopefully, the developers are
looking into this, as I did give a good summary and it is
reproduceable, as seen here.

Hi,
Is this on Creators Update only or on other builds? It appears something odd
is going on with event handling, or UIA is sending too many show events in
Creators Update (based on my own findings). I'm personally keeping an eye on
this problem myself.
Cheers,
Joseph

Hi,
You are not the only one with this problem. Somehow, when universal apps are
launched, UIA believes it should fire multiple events somehow. As I worked
on toast notification announcement, I'm looking into this.

Hi,

For those affected by this: can you try with NVDA 2017.1 (and if possible, 2016.4) to see if folks can duplicate with older releases? So far, I’m getting confusing reports from NVDA and accessibility event watcher (accevent.exe, part of Windows SDK) regarding how many times a certain event is fired.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi,
How about those running 2016.4 (if anyone is running that one at the
moment)? If this is the same in that version, chances are that we're dealing
with yet another one of those odd and confusing UI Automation problem where
the specifications and the practices are walking a parallel road (i.e.
feedback on implementation issues is in order).

Hi all,
To expand upon my last point regarding specs and practices walking a
parallel road: UI Automation is intended to fill the gap in MSAA and present
an updated view of how controls work. Unfortunately, I and other NVDA
developers have encountered numerous issues where paper says one thing and
code says something else, and in worst cases, we've seen badly formed UIA
implementations to a point where we had to resort to MSAA (Microsoft Office
apps are prime example of this problem). At other times, the UI Automation
tree was in such a bad state that we had to write workaround hacks (not
ideal, but we resort to this in some cases), and the most recent case was
suppressing "web content" announcement in Edge (caused by yet another badly
pruned UIA tree in Microsoft Edge). Half of my Windows 10 App Essentials
add-on code is devoted to UIA workarounds in Windows 10 itself as well as in
various apps, and for one or two cases, fixing the UIA issue means
introducing bugs in NVDA (a prime example being the fact that modern
Calculator repeats whatever you've entered). I can go on all day and talk
about UIA adventures, but I'll stop here, as we have a serious issue to
tackle regarding toast announcements.
Cheers,
Joseph

Hi,

I have the same problem since NVDA version 2017.1. Unfortunately, I don't have instalation of NVDA 2016.4, so I can't see if this problem happens with this version of NVDA.

Hi,

I have it:

http://www.josephsl.net/files/bin/nvda_2016.4.exe

You say this happens in 2017.1? What about 2016.4? If it does not happen with 2016.4, chances are that something might have been introduced in 2017.1 that’s causing this problem, and the most likely explanation might be a commit that became part of a February 2017 master snapshot.

Joseph

hi,

also experiencing this on next snapshot. It is very annoying, as the notification is repeated about 4-5 times.

Hi,
Yes, I have this issue, multiple times a day.
I was using Windows 10, version 1703, with NVDA 2017.1, then 2017.2, and the notification repeat issues occured in both versions, sometimes as many as 7 times.

Hi,

I installed NVDA ver. 2016.4, and, interesting, this problem continues...

Kind regards,

Tea Turkovic

Hi,

I have it:

http://www.josephsl.net/files/bin/nvda_2016.4.exe

You say this happens in 2017.1? What about 2016.4? If it does not happen with 2016.4, chances are that something might have been introduced in 2017.1 that’s causing this problem, and the most likely explanation might be a commit that became part of a February 2017 master snapshot.

Cheers,

Joseph

Hi,

I have the same problem since NVDA version 2017.1. Unfortunately, I don't have instalation of NVDA 2016.4, so I can't see if this problem happens with this version of NVDA.

Kind regards,

Tea Turkovic

Hi,

For those affected by this: can you try with NVDA 2017.1 (and if possible, 2016.4) to see if folks can duplicate with older releases? So far, I’m getting confusing reports from NVDA and accessibility event watcher (accevent.exe, part of Windows SDK) regarding how many times a certain event is fired.

Cheers,

Joseph

This happens to me also, particularly in Skype.

This also happens to me.

As far as I know, I don't use universal apps.

I get this a lot. Dropbox, ownCloud, etc will do it.

For me, at least, the creators update has seemed to fix the problem. It had done that for me before I upgraded, but now it doesn’t seem to repeat notifications as it had done before. I’ll monitor.

This is creator update for me, just installed two days ago.

Version 1703 (OS Build 15063.332)

As this issue impacts many users, among other performance issues, I
think that an NVDA 2017.2.1 release is warranted.
