Seeing tons of updates for #NVDA in the last day, which is great to see of course. Really glad that even though it's been out for less than a week, so many things are getting dealt with. Community spirit and all that.
speech synthesizers are less likely to work without an actual code update if they've not been touched since 2024.1 was released, but everything else I've manually enabled has worked fine.
Of those, well over half have themselves since been updated by the developers, that's just this week. Amazing.
Do disabled addons check for updates? I know ideally the new addons would be ready *before* the new NVDA, but for those cases where that's not so, would an addon I failed to bypass security and enable anyway still be updated afterward, @NVAccess?
@cachondo Yes, NVDA still checks for updates to disabled add-ons - after all, waiting for that update might be exactly why the add-on is disabled (rather than uninstalled) in the first place.
@NVAccess there we go, simple answer. OK, so what if the addon was disabled by the user rather than an update? is there logic to only re-enable addons that a user hadn't deliberately disabled, too?
