Pressing enter or space will activate (normally click) the text at the cursor if possible.
Pressing escape dismisses the recognition result.

When you want to monitor constantly changing content, such as when watching a video with subtitles, you can optionally enable automatic refresh of the recognized content in the [Windows OCR category #Win10OcrSettings] of the [NVDA Settings #NVDASettings] dialog.

++ Windows OCR ++[Win10Ocr]
Windows 10 and later includes OCR for many languages.
NVDA can use this to recognize text from images or inaccessible applications.

You can set the language to use for text recognition in the [Windows OCR category #Win10OcrSettings] of the [NVDA Settings #NVDASettings] dialog.
Additional languages can be installed by opening the Start menu, choosing Settings, selecting Time & Language -> Region & Language and then choosing Add a language.

When you want to monitor constantly changing content, such as when watching a video with subtitles, you can optionally enable automatic refresh of the recognized content.
This can also be done in the [Windows OCR category #Win10OcrSettings] of the [NVDA Settings #NVDASettings] dialog.

Windows OCR may be partially or fully incompatible with [NVDA vision enhancements #Vision] or other external visual aids. You will need to disable these aids before proceeding to a recognition.
