Hi all,
Well folks, I just found another USB port, so, I took NVDA for a spin,
using just the built in speech recognition in windows 10, and not
dictation bridge.
I can tell it to open programs, down arrow through lists of files, down
arrow through web pages, click on links, (used Internet explorer).
I could type documents and read documents, in word pad, as well.
I use tapin radio, and I could use the program as well!
So, if anyone is still using windows 7, I would say, upgrade to 10,
you'll love it!!! Just for the windows speech recognition alone, it's
worth it!
Below, I have pasted in all the commands for speech recognition, in
windows 10.
