why can't I turn on caret browsing?

Me thinks your NVDA key isn't working properly. This sometimes happens
to me, but more likely in System Access than NVDA. Usually a restart
of the screen reader fixes this. As for how to get the browser to ask
about carrot browsing again, I don't know as usually when that dialog
pops up I just hit escape and try links list again.

Hi list this morning I went to Newsline and when I tried to box links with
f7 it kept saying turn on. Told it stop asking me this question and said
turn it on. Now I can’t box links for easy navigation. How do I fix this.

Why do you want to use caret navigation?  As to why you can't, I don't know. 

As for box links, what do you mean?  If you want to bring up a list of links, the command is insert, either insert, f7.  Caret navigation is just about useless to a blind person because we already use screen[-readers that provide a virtual cursor.  Caret browsing is intended to furnish something like a virtual cursor for sighted users but it almost never has any application to a blind user.
