@masonasons so I just downgraded for no reason at all? growl growl growl!

@JamminJerry potentially. Let me see about it's last tested NVDA version

@JamminJerry Yep, you did. Last tested NVDA version: 2025.1

@masonasons /me throws a toddler temper tantrum

@JamminJerry ROFL!

@masonasons you might have thrown one too if you went threw what I did! I had to uninstall NVDA, and it wanted me to reboot. not thinking, I rebooted, and then while it was rebooting, I reolized that NVDA was set to run before I sign in. so I had no speach signing in, and had to use narator to get signed in, then had to use JFW 2022 as I haven't updated the JFW on my laptop just so I could go into the network to run the installer for NVDA2024.4.2. then had to listen to two screen readers at the same time, because I don't know how to do the bypass command in NVDA so I could shut down jaws!

@JamminJerry @masonasons You got past it now, but when you had two screen readers running at once, your options to silence NVDA at that point are:
- NVDA+f2 (the bypass next key command you wanted)
- NVDA+s toggle speech mode (if you haven't changed the default, toggles speech, silent, beeps, speech on demand)
- NVDA+shift+s / NVDA+shift+z application sleep mode (only silences in THAT application)
- NVDA+q then enter to quit NVDA

@masonasons NVDA+F2. I will remember that one for sure in future. thanks for all of those commands. I really need to learn more about NVDA. smile.
