NVDA does not read "about Word" in Word 2019
|
Ann Byrne
Word 2019; windows 10 latest. Trying to get the current version of MS Word, I press alt-f, then d, then a; or alt-f, then tab to "about" and press enter. With either alternative, NVDA locks up, stops speaking. Narrator reads the 'about' information, but I can't copy it.
I can read the version with JAWS and copy it to speech history. How can I get NVDA to read this happily? Thx,

I don't know why N/vDA is freezing or what is actually freezing in NVDA or your synthesizer. How do you start speech with NVDA again? You could try a different synthesizer. also, have you seen what happens if you try to leave the NVDA window by, for example, going to the desktop> does NVDA resume speaking then?

And if you don't have Narrator running and alt tab away and then alt tab back, does NVDA speak?
