I can't reproduce this. I can alt+tab to the About NVDA dialog and press its OK button. Can you please double check this?

Yeah, I double checked with both the clean installed 2011.1 and Version: bzr-main-4160 source. I am running Windows 7 64-bit, if that is at all related...

I only discovered this when trying to retrieve the version info of the source code after building the tree. I am using a laptop, so after I opened the About NVDA dialogue, I tried to change my keyboard setting to laptop by pressing NVDA+Ctrl+k. The strange thing is that the combo box can be accessed when pressing up and down arrow, it switches between desktop and laptop. Similar thing happens when opening the general dialogue with the language list. But I am not able to tab to any other controls or alt Tab back to the About NVDA dialogue.

Other dialogs are unusable while the About dialog is open because the About dialog is a modal dialog. I do see that issue. However, I can always alt+tab back to the About dialog.

Can anyone else reproduce the problem with not being able to alt+tab back to the About dialog?

Okay, apparently, I had the performance setting for visual effects set to "Adjust for best performance", which affects the alt+tab shortcut in Windows 7. If I switch the setting back to "Let Windows decide what's best for my computer", I am now able to alt Tab back to the About NVDA dialogue and click its "OK" button. However, if the keyboard or any other setting dialogue is opened before the about NVDA dialogue is closed, I cannot tab to any other controls unless I close the About NVDA dialogue first.

Yes. I can not alt+tab to the about dialog as well as close the other dialog. furthermore, I can't quit NVDA with nvda+q (and I have confirm on quit turned of).

I also tested this on a virtual Windows XP, and I cannot Alt Tab back to the About dialogue either. Originally, I thought this might have something to do with the hardware, since I am using a laptop. But, I tried it with a USB keyboard, and the same problem occurs. I also confirmed that NVDA+Q cannot quit NVDA. The quit dialogue can be opened, but pressing the yes button just closes the window instead of actually quitting NVDA.
