Rod, when I first attempt to open Dropbox from the desktop icon, nothing
happens. However, when I again attempt this after waiting perhaps ten
seconds at most, I see all of my Dropbox subfolders and have no
difficulty using the arrow keys to navigate them.

Hi John,
Okay, just checked my version of the DropBox desktop app.
I did this by opening the system tray using Insert-S which is the Window-Eyes
hot key for doing this.
It is 82.4.155.
It was updated yesterday according to Add/Remove programs.
I'm running Windows 10 Home 64-bit.
I have a desktop icon for DropBox.
When I press Enter on it, it opens my personal DropBox folder. which displays
just like any other folder on my system.
And, within this folder are all my shared folders, that is, folders I have
shared with other specific people, like you and I had, at one time.
I don't know what else I can say except that you could uninstall and then
reinstall the desktop app and log in again.
The key thing to note is that the DropBox desktop application is the most
easily accessible way to manage sharing files on a daily basis.
Good luck,
Rod

Hi Rod,
Sorry but it doesn;'t do as on the tin. Smile
When I open drop box. The page is blank. The only way I can read anything is
use the arrow keys on the numpad. Tabbing doesn't work either.
To select a named folder I use the arrow keys on the numpadto first select a
named folder. Then the arrow ke to the right of control. Those keys don't speak
but the named folder changes with the up or down arrow keys. The numpad arrow
keys don't change the named folder in any way.
I hope that makes sense?
Live long and prosper, Johnys

Hi John,
I'm sorry but we don't seem to be on the same page.
Let's try to go slowly in order to diagnose this problem.
Do you have an icon called DropBox on your desktop?
If you press Enter on this icon, it should open the DropBox folder which should
display exactly like any other folder on your system.
Best,
Rod

Hi Rod,
I always viewed the drop box folder using the arrow keys. That view no longer
works for me. I have to use the numpad arrow keys to view the drop box folder.
I am unable to paste any files in drop box, even though I have selected a sub
folder. I can't open the folders either.They changed the interface.
I was able to arrow down press enter on a folder and either copy or paste in a
folder or file. I can't do that any more.
Live long and prosper, John

Hi John,
Precisely are you trying to view your folders?
Do you not still have the DropBox desktop software installed, which creates a
personal folder, normally as a child of your user folder?
And then your shared folders, which you set up with fellow DropBox users, are
children of your personal folder.
Also, you can view your DropBox account on the web, with the browser and screen
reader of your choice.
Hope this helps,
Rod

Hi List,
I just noticed today that drop box has been updated. I for some reason can't
read the drop box page where my folders are kept. However I can read them with
the numpad keys.
I this a fixable problem? I was able to read the page with the arrow keys no
problem with nvda.
Live long and prosper, John
