Troubleshooting
Q: I can’t control Internet Explorer by voice.
If you can’t control Internet Explorer by voice, it may mean that an
Internet Explorer option required for voice control is not selected.
On the Internet Explorer View menu, select Internet Options, and then
click the Advanced tab.

If you’re using Internet Explorer 4.0, make sure the “Browse in a
new process” box is checked.

If you’re using Internet Explorer 5.0, make sure the “Launch
browser windows in separate process” box is checked
Q: I don’t want to control Internet Explorer by voice. Can I turn this
feature off?
If you don’t use Internet Explorer by voice, you can turn the feature off.
On the Start menu, point to Programs, then Dragon NaturallySpeaking,
then NaturalWeb, and then click Turn Off NaturalWeb. If you turn off
NaturalWeb, Dragon NaturallySpeaking no longer loads voice support
each time you start Internet Explorer.
Pressing keyboard keys
If you have Dragon NaturallySpeaking Preferred or Professional, you can
“press” any key on your keyboard by voice. You can press letters,
numbers, modifier keys (
SHIFT
,
CTRL
, and
ALT
), and so on.
For example, you can say “Press a,” and Dragon NaturallySpeaking will
type the letter “a” in your document. Or, you can say “Press Control S” to
press
CTRL
+
S (
the keyboard shortcut for saving a document).
