  • Is it this one: “Added an experimental option to leverage the UIA notification support in Windows Terminal to report new or changed text in the terminal, resulting in improved stability and responsivity. (#13781) Consult the user guide for limitations of this experimental option.”

    We don’t normally link directly to updated files in the what’s new, it’s really just to let you know what is new so you can try it out when you download the update. The easiest way is to open the user guide from the help menu - in this way, if you are using NVDA in a language other than English, you will also get the updated translation (if it is there yet).

    To get to the file without downloading the beta, it’s a little roundabout, but you can go to the linked issue, and from there to the PR (“seanbudd closed this as completed in #14047 on Oct 25, 2022”: https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/pull/14047 From there, go to files, and you will find the user guide as one of them, and you can view the file, which links me here: https://github.com/leonardder/nvda/blob/f6f6563b6872ec82b095ef9a930606b8d10e7f27/user_docs/en/userGuide.t2t

    The raw file doesn’t have neat little links but if you search for “Windows terminal”, there aren’t too many other references.
