Can anyone reproduce this?




Bug


When nvda is restarted, the use insert key option becomes rechecked even
after the user unchecks it.


Steps


* Launch nvda

* Go to settings

* Go to keyboard

* Choose laptop (not sure if desktop will work the same

* Uncheck insert under the section where it lists 4 check boxes for
nvda modifiers.

* Hit ok

* Restart nvda




Expected


Nvda should not recheck the box for the keys you unchecked


Actual


The box becomes rechecked upon restarting nvda

If it isn't, and they weren't saved intentionally by the user before exiting, they're gone.  (That needs to be emphasized because one can save them manually, but you must do so if that box is unchecked.  [It is checked by default if NVDA is in it's "fresh install default state."])

I just checked, the box is in fact checked, so yes something is amiss here.  Hopefully, whatever happened will fix itself. I could have sworn I did uncheck the insert thing months ago. I never had to use insert on my 6 pack until recently. Anyway, I’ll have to test with other keys.

I don't know if this is somehow related to what happened last evening,on my Hp Pavillion Windows10 Laptop which is a bit over 4 years old: So I powered on my Laptop just fine; I was able to use NVDA commands via the Caps-lock key just fine without issues, but about 5-10 minutes later, not only the NVDA command key didn't work, but the Tab, Escape or the Number1 key on the top number row! So I restarted the computer, and the above-mentioned keys worked great for about 5-10 minutes, after which no go! not even restarting NVDA! So I restarted the computer a 2nd time, and used it over an hour without issues! with all the expected keys working just fine!

So might this be related to what you're talking about in this thread?

No not at all, follow my steps  and you hopefully can repro. Basically, uncheck insert or what ever modifiers you don’t want to use. Restart nvda and those boxes will become checked. Make sure save config upon exit is  checked.

Even when save config upon exit is  checked, it some times fail.

Manually save it your self, and then see if the problem will be resolved.

I just tried this with the current NVDA version 2022.3.2, installed.
The setting is saved properly.  I manually saved the configuration
before exiting NVDA but I don't think using automatic saving of settings
would matter.

This is a straight windows box, and a regular copy of nvda. I don't do
portable copies if I can help it. I'm not looking forward to nuking my
install, I know I can back them up with a portable, however that will suck
major.

Sarah, is this a straight Windows box or are you perchance running it thru a
mac or vm? Also, is this an installed or portable version?
