I've used a single instance of Terminal with multiple tabs but not multiple instances of Terminal. Will you try using a single Terminal instance to see if that eliminates the problem? I'm not saying that we won't fix a problem experienced only when multiple Terminal instances are open, but just trying to figure out if that's a key to the issue. Not sure why running Terminal as admin would change anything about this. --Glen -----Original Message----- From: Andrew Hodgson <andrew@hodgson.io> Sent: Monday, June 19, 2023 6:52 AM To: steve@comproom.co.uk; Mailing list for blind system administrators <blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org> Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Re: Losing focus in terminal all the time CAUTION: This email originated outside Vispero.

Looking at this a bit more I am now wondering if this is because I have several of these command prompt windows open at one time and alt+tab between them.

A focus issue would suggest that the screen readers themselves are not keeping focus in the command prompt. I can't say I've had that experience though.

Latest JFW and Windows 11 builds on multiple machines, I lose speech output in the terminal or command prompt when navigating to and from the window. What I mean by this is I am not hearing the output of commands or what I am typing into the window. This is really starting to stress me out now and I can't believe I am the only person experiencing it. Its been happening since the beginning of the year since a Windows update I think. Any suggestions? Thanks. Andrew. _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org _______________________________________________ Blind-sysadmins mailing list -- blind-sysadmins@lists.hodgsonfamily.org To unsubscribe send an email to blind-sysadmins-leave@lists.hodgsonfamily.org
