Hi Susan, OCR stands for optical character recognition. In other words, it scans an image or photo of text and tries to convert it back into text so NVDA can read it aloud. Some programs like your anti-virus and network connection are always running in the background. Rather than have them clogging up the Taskbar, Windows groups them in the Systray. Systray List gives you easy access to the items in the Systray. And it can also list all the apps on the Taskbar. Similar to JAWS Ins+F11 and Ins+F10. Virtual Revisions is similar to JAWS Virtualise Current Window (Ins+Alt+W). It makes a "flattened copy" of the text on screen, making it easier to navigate. Also handy for selecting and copying text of pop-ups and error messages. HTH!
