This morning I ran the latest update sent by MS for Windows 11 (A long one, which took around 10-15 minutes).

After it completed, I could not longer use Dragon (Professional Individual version 15) to dictate directly into Trados (Studio 2022) segments. I can dictate into the Dragon dictation box and transfer this, but that is time consuming. Bizarrely perhaps, I can also still dictate directly into the boxes on the "find and replace" function.

At the same time, I lost the ability to dictate directly to Firefox and to Chrome.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled dragon. I have cleaned up my hard drive so I have over 30GB free. I have scoured the web for solutions but found no responses.

Any suggestions would be gratefully received.

Windows 11, version 24H2, by any chance? Feb 21

Christopher, I am sorry to hear this, as I have been hit by similar problems in the past, although not in a way that would be relevant to your experience.

Christopher, I am sorry to hear this, as I have been hit by similar problems in the past, although not in a way that would be relevant to your experience.

The Knowbrainer forum is usually the best source of information, but the problem is that the overlap between general-purpose Dragon users of the kind who hang out on Knowbrainer and translators seems to be fairly small - basically myself and Michael Beijer.

If you click on your Windows start key and then type "windows update" you should be able to click on the Windows Update Settings app, and that will show you what the most recent update was. It may well have been "Windows 11, version 24H2".

Note this post from December:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/dragonusers/posts/10161447219274716/

"Well I just updated to Windows 11, version 24H2. Dragon NaturallySpeaking professional version 15.6 no longer works in anything except for DragonPad. Used to work on my ancient Microsoft application and would work in Google environment such as Google sheets and Google documents. No other changes were made. Any suggestions on how to get it to work again?"

It was suggested that they uninstalled the update using the following procedure and that seems to have worked for them:

Good luck!
