NVDA and the Windows Task Scheduler
|
Steve Matzura
How do I get to the Actions menu? If I focus on a task I want to manage--i.e., delete, run now, get properties, etc.--I should be able to point the NVDA Mouse Cursor to the object and right-click it to bring up the Actions menu. But it doesn't work. Neither does the Application key. Is there a necessary add-on I'm missing, or what?

In Windows 7, you can check in Windows 10 to see if this applies, if you
open properties, you are in a multipage dialog. Tab or shift tab until you
get to general, then right arrow through the other tabs, one of which is
triggers. Stop on triggers and tab around, See if you find what you
want.
Others who use Windows 10 may answer but if you don’t want to wait, this
may solve the problem.

Thanks. Apparently it's not even an NVDA issue. Rather, it's whether the task is in the Local or Library area of Task Scheduler that determines whether the tabs you mention even appear. Also, when I create a task, it always goes into the Library area, never the Local area, so I am working with someone who already has a task in Local that he wants to get rid of. Since this has wound up to not be an NVDA question or problem, I'll move it elsewhere.

I’ll make one more comment here.
Just from the tiny experimentation I did today, it appears to me that local
is just for show or display. It appears to me that everything must be done
in the library.
I haven’t looked, but I suspect you can see everything in the library that
you see in local.
