I am using an HP laptop, and it doesn't have an insert key, is there a way I could turn off NVDA another way?

[@takemathfirst]

What do you do if you are using a Surface and you don't have an "insert" key on the keypad?

[@dylanharper5304]

Yeh right what would you do?

I just barely downloaded this screen reader and I see some things that need to be changed about it. One of those is that it needs to have a more simpler way to toggle it on and off? When you have to hit the insert key and the N key you have to take your hands off of the home keys and this is difficult. If you could hold the Control and the F key to turn it on and the control key and the J key down this would keep your fingers on the home keys and not get lost? The other thing is that it would be nice if this program had a quick toggle feature that would live on the taskbar near the clock where you can click it even if the NVDA software was on or off and when your mouse hovers over that specific icon it wold speak and you could turn it on or off plus this feature would be good for people with low vision who can see something and it would give the ability to allow a person to either select the test for one moment and it would read only what is selected, place a box around a paragraph or heading and only read what is within that box, or even it can read each word that the mouse is hovering over by opening the box after opening the icon by the clock on the taskbar and holding the Control key down and selecting the option in the box that popped up from the clock area with your mouse on how you want the text to be read while using your mouse and still holding the control key down? This would allow a single word to be read out loud that you need for a short period of time but you still are reading most of the text with your eyes? If you the creator of this video see this please pass this onto the software developer?

I do Insert + Q then enter when the quit dialogue box comes up. Sometimes it goes off the rails or it might be that I've accidentally hit Insert plus 1 which toggles on input help which subverts the keyboard keys as it will just voice the key you picked and say what it does....need to then hit insert plus 1 again to toggle that off.

I feel so much empathy for blind people now. I'm taking a course on accesible web development because I thought it's a bare minimum to know how to make other people enjoy these web experiences as well. Now I'm learning to use NVDA to do my tests. I'm afraid I won't do well enough, but I'll try my best

Hello, i really like the instruction videos on nvda and there are not enough in my opinion. I have a question after i created a configuration profile for notepad only i can not seem to get one setting right. When i type i hear letter by letter cause i have that turned on , i also have turned on speak each word after its typed. Now when i press enter at the end of a sentence i hear nothing until i arrow back up and then only it reads the whole sentence. Is there a setting that will speak the whole sentence right after i press enter instead of arrowing up and down each time. I would just like to keep typing and hear what i typed. Thank you for reading greets Mak :)

So, I have a Microsoft surface pro. I can’t turn NVDA off. I’ve been trying to turn it off for a year and I can’t! Do you know how I can do it? I don’t have an insert key.

[@philipwhittaker5999]

Thanks. That is just what I needed to know. I find NVDA very verbose. Is there a way to reduce the depth of the comments? Windows 10.

Guys i got it! how to off the NVDA. At the right side down of icon {HIDDEN ICON }option in that NVDA will show. Make a click on the NVDA symbol and click exit then click yes. Then it will ask another time make yes on that ,If u want to on make click on NVDA on the desktop.
