I've MS DOC and DOCX files protected with passwords. When I open them in MS Word 2010, I encounter following issues.

  1. After I hit enter on a password protected file to open it, the NVDA fails to speak the prompt to enter the password.
  2. I also hear NVDA startup audio feed, as if I had just restarted the NVDA.
    I've no idea if the above issue is also true for other versions of MS Word; I'm only using MS Word 2010.

Mostly a duplicate of #2716. However, I'm concerned about the NVDA restart, which suggests that NVDA is crashing for you, so leaving open for now.

I've never had any luck with password entry using nvda on older versions of word. Nothing seems to be spoken or indeed happen most of the time.

When I open a password protected Word document, NVDA does read the prompt to enter the password. NVDA does not read the characters typed or read when I delete them, but that is a different issue stated by @michaelDCurran in #2716. As we are unable to contact the original poster in regards to the crash to debug the issue, closing as duplicate of #2716
