NVDA 2020.4 rc1
Don H
Running NVDA 2020.4 RC1 on a Win 10 20h2 system. When returning to the desktop after closing something like Thunderbird or MS edge it seems you are not back to the desktop. Prir to this RC1 when closing edge or thunderbird NVDA would announce desktop and the icon you were on. Now it says nothing and you have to bab or use other means to get to the desktop.

I don't think this is a nvda issue. What steps are you taking to produce this bug? I never end up at my desktop, I end up back to where I was.

Now it says nothingIn my experience, as a Windows function not NVDA, when you close a program, you are taken to another open program, probably the one you last alt+tabbed to. and you have to bab or use other means to get to the desktop.What is this babbing of which you speak?

how many programs windows thinks you have open? For example, close Thunderbird, and it doesn't return you to the desktop. Then, hold down alt, and repeatedly press tab. It will say something like: program name, row 1, column 1. Program name, row 1, column 2. And so on. How many columns does it say you have? If you get any more than one column, then you have something open you may not know about. Perhaps you aren't hearing the desktop, because it's returning to an inaccessible window, or a non-speaking Windows notification, or some such. Luke On Sun, 14 Feb 2021, Don H wrote:

Hi,
I have Windows 10 Pro 20h2 with NVDA 2020.4. When I open Microsoft Edge, I am able to return to desktop when I minimise Edge by the “Minimize” option or “Windows + Down arrow” shortcut key. The behaviour is normal. I do not use Thunderbird.
With Best Regards, Sanjog Kumawat |

You do end up in something of a gray area that when a insert+t you get explorer. When actually you lost focus and NVDA don't know how to handle it.
