Hi, I just have Chrome set to update itself. So, it simply does it in the background and you don't even notice it. Chrome does the updates while the browser is open, so there's no need to restart the browser or anything of the sort. Updates to ChromeVox are also done on the fly. Occasionally, the style of update to ChromeVox requires you to accept something, so it will remain disabled until that is accepted. In those cases, I just use VO to do what needs done in Chrome to re-enable ChromeVox.
HTH. Later... Tim Kilburn Fort McMurray, AB Canada On Jan 3, 2017, at 15:58, Anders Holmberg <and...@pipkrokodil.se> wrote: Hi!
