I've reinstalled NVDA a couple of times, and on installation, everything seems fine. Please see below for steps to recreate my issue. The beeps are still present when i click and minimize, etc.

Steps to reproduce:

  • Normal installation
  • On Windows search, search "NVDA"
  • Right click, open file location
  • Uninstall NVDA
  • Follow steps to uninstall
  • reboot computer
  • go to browser "https://www.nvaccess.org/", click on purple box to download
  • scroll down to download
  • Download and install -> install
  • Startup
  • textbox but no voice reading the text
