NVDA and outlook

[Steve Gomes]

Using windows 11, NVDA and outlook 2021. Sometimes while reading a message, NVDA is slow to respond and I have to hit control alt n to reload NVDA I don’t hear the exit NVDA sound just the reload. I am using the extended outlook ad-on and the latest version of NVDA anyone else notice this? thanks

What do you mean slow? Are you saying it takes awhile or it stops
responding? If you don't hear the quit sound, that suggests the program
has crashed and the control alt n command is forcing the program to
close and restart. If the program is frozen, the command forces a shut
down.

As to what is causing the problem, I have no idea. Someone might have
to look at logs to try to find out. You could try using Outlook without
the add-on to see if that stops the problem.

I am using outlook 2016 and current version of nvda and windows 10 pro on this pc.

Outlook works fine.

Some emails from places like amazon and other retail websites, are super slow.
I think it may have something to do with all the graphics in the message.

Oh yes, it reallydrags.

I think the NVDA is frozen and I like you don't know what the problem it. It might be the graphics I will keep track and see what happens. Also when I am listening to a document in note pad, on the last line it will not speak the whole line until I up and down arrow thanks gene
