When I press windows+period to bring up the emoji keyboard on Windows 10, #NVDA 2024.3.1 can't read anything. Pressing tab/shift+tab says nothing (silence), and when pressing arros it just says blank.

I haven't yet seen other reports of this, so hopefully we can resolve it.

Have you restarted the PC since updating?

If you press NVDA+q then down arrow to "Restart with add-ons disabled", then enter, does it help?

And failing all that, if you press NVDA+n. then t for the tools menu, then "Run COM Registration fixing tool" does it make a difference?

@NVAccess Ah, the classic universal tech support! A reboot worked! 😂

Well that's quicker than waiting for a patch in the next update to NVDA (or Windows), so a good result :)
