Issues with NVDA after updating to Windows 10
|
Michael Forzano
Hi all,
I updated from Windows 7 to Windows 10 yesterday, and am having 2 issues: 1. NVDA no loger activates browse mode in Google Chrome (latest version). This was working fine on Win 7 yesterday, but now even the NVDA+Space command does not allow me to enter browse mode. Firefox is working fine. 2. I'm no longer able to use the editor in the Eclipse IDE. NVDA doesn't read any of the contents of the editor, and nothing is spoken when I use the arrow keys or any other navigation commands. I have Windows 10 on another computer and can confirm the Eclipse editor works fine there, so I have no idea what's going on here. Any pointers would be appreciated. Thanks, Mike

Try uninstalling and reinstalling NVDA.
According to comments I saw hear early during the Windows 10 introduction, that
should be done when upgrading to Windows 10. See if that solves the
problems.

That seems to have fixed it. Thanks for the help!

It didn't occur to me that a reinstall would be necessary since all of my other apps worked fine after the update. Perhaps it should be added to the documentation somewhere. Mike

That's good. We'll see what the developers
say about where it is documented, if it is.

I remember NVDA working fine when I upgraded (early on). Maybe something is different if upgrading now though?

Always when i do major updates like this you did. I always reinstall
all aplications i am using. MS, screenreader and stuff. Yes, it
takes plenty of time, But on other hand i can often sit beside when
people have issues after utdate. It take longer time during the
installation. but on a long term i belive I am the winner.

You shouldn't have to reinstall all sorts of
applications. whenever this sort of problem has come up, only a
reinstallation of NVDA was necessary. If you install all sorts of
applications when you have no evidence that there are problems with them, you
are doing a lot of work that has no basis in evidence. People routinely
have updated Windows when service packs used to be provided and they didn't
reinstall programs in general.

Well I don't and have had little trouble. It does pay, however to keep system restore points before an update just in case.
