I am wondering if you have it in full screen mode or not. A lot of the virtualization tools will require you to be in this mode to do that shortcut key. I do this fine in Hyper-V as long as the Enhanced Session is enabled which some one from this list recommended. While it isn't totally related to the question, that bit of knowledge share here was so helpful that I am able to manage several Fail Over Clusters using Hyper-V.

I once followed this article to get a Windows Server up and running with speech. Note this was after installation and I had installed the VMware tools. I have never used it with a client based OS like Windows 10. https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/1003425 Thanks.

For the OCR question using NVDA and insert+r I get a recognizing box the only thing that's in it is the title of the window in this case windows 10[ In terms of what is happening in the VM I'm going to assume that it is at least getting keyboard input or most of it because when I atempt to activate narrator to help with the install I'm hoping my command is right, control+windows+enter although I've tried alt and shift, whenever that windows key comes in to play I hear from my host system NVDA "caps lock on". Suggestions welcome. Thanks. Dave. On 1/9/24, Ben Mustill-Rose via Blind-sysadmins <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> wrote:
What do you see if you OCR the screen? Are you sure that the VM's receiving your keypresses?

Hello,
The subject says what I'm trying to do, I've got Vmware Workstation Pro version 16 going on my system. To that I'd like to add Win10 pro x64. I've got the vm created, and have created a win10 22h2 iso, fed that to the vm, and started it. I'm trying to get speech going and it's not working, not doing anything.
Any ideas welcome. Thanks. Dave. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org
