I apologize if this isn't the right place to post this, but I've been having an issue with NVDA for the past few months. I have some vision so I usually just use NVDA with a mouse, but I got a new computer back in mid-October of last year and now it doesn't work correctly. It'll read whatever's under the curser, but only on the upper part of the screen and whenever I go any lower than that, its like I might as well not be using NVDA at all. Has anyone else had this problem and found a way to fix it?
For reference, I'm using Windows version 10.0.16299 and NVDA 2017.3

I don't use the mouse but have you looked in the mouse settings? Try pressing NVDA plus m and enabling mouse tracking and see if that helps.

I have the mouse tracking enabled, and venturing into the mouse settings didn't yield anything, either. Thank you for trying, though!

I'm glad to help. Maybe your touchpad drivers need updating or something like that? Do you have anyone around you who can see to use the mouse/trackpad without NVDA and who can tell you what happens when they do?
