Hi,
Possible spin-off from #4057, as the solution seems same:
Each time the user checks for an update and if the check for update dialog is already opened, NVDA opens another instance of this dialog.

STR:

  1. Check for an update (NVDA menu/Help/Check for Update).
  2. While the dialog is opened, try checking for update again.
    Expected: NvDA will display only one instance of the dialog, and if an instance of this window already exists, users will be redirected to the opened dialog.
    Actual: While the dialog is opened, when checking for updates, another instance of the dialog opens.

Specs:

  • OS: Windows 8.1.
  • NVDA version: 2014.3, master.10457, next.11184.

Possible solution: there existed a bug in 4057 where multiple instances of exit NVDA dialog appeared. We could apply the same fix here as well - that is, have only one instance of the dialog opened.
Thanks.

Yes I get this as well. Its worth noting though that although several instances are apparently open, alt tab only shows it once. It is only revealed as multiple when you close the dialogue down and the next one comes to be viewed.
Subtle difference.
This is on xp.

Just wanted to point out that I'm not going to fix this as part of #4263. It is still slightly annoying though, I agree.

No, this issue has been given a priority level 4 (see the labels on github). We will happily work with someone to fix this issue and accept a PR. Since it's certainly something that improves the overall polish of NVDA, however it's not severe, at worst its slightly annoying.
