@jcsteh From #4467 (comment), are you leaning towards closing this ticket as a cantfix or should we let it remain open in case others have ideas? |
We've certainly seen cases where things lock up in such a way that control+alt+n doesn't work, possibly because NVDA's key hook started eating all keys (which should never happen but does happen in rare edge cases). I think I've also seen cases where NVDA crashed and a Windows crash dialog appeared and control+alt+n didn't work. The problem is that these things are difficult to reproduce, which makes devising a good solution difficult. P3 to at least investigate/gather information, though we're pretty light on details at this point. |

Hi.
In JAWS 16 public Beta, I think this feature was excellent, and should be implemented in NVDA as well.
I am pasting a brief description about it here; JAWS recovery is now improved
If JAWS 16 becomes unresponsive for more than 15 seconds due to a problem caused by any application it now automatically restarts within 30 seconds.
I do not have more information than this, but till what I have understood, this is quite essential for NVDA as well.
