The following happens consistently on my XP Pro machine.

  1. With a thumb drive inserted I go to the run dialog with Windows key and the letter r.
  2. I type f: and press enter to bring up the folder list on that drive.
  3. At this point NVDA seems to freeze and I get no speech.
    At that point I attempt to terminate and restart NVDA with the ctrl-alt-N hotkey.
    I press the hotkey once and I do not usually hear the descending tones indicating that NVDA has stopped.
    I then press it again and hear the ascending tones indicating that NVDA has started again. Everything is fine now and I can then alt-tab to the thumb drive's directory with normal reading.

I am using a very slow computer with Microsoft security Essentials running; not sure if that's helpful.

I cannot get this to occur on a machine running xp pro with an amd 1.8gig processor, and 1 gig of ram but I went in via my computer rather than how you are doing it.

Can you test this on your system?
For various reasons, using the run dialogue to do this nearly always seems sluggish, but it does work here on this machine.
Is this using espeak?

I am not sure if there is enough information provided here to replicate. I do not have issues bringing up flash drives from the run dialog. Maybe I am missing something? I am using Windows 10, although the original poster is using XP.
