Some issues that arose during the use of the program:

1)Can't extract text from google chrome. It extracts "Chrome Legacy Window". On the bookmarks works fine! chrome 2)Also can't extract passwords stored behind asterisks (*****) from edge,chrome and mozilla browsers. It doesn't do anything passwords 3)On Sublime text instead of extracting the text inside the file, it extracts the name of the file. sublime 4)Can't extract text from my desktop. It says "NVIDIA GeForce Overlay" instead of the text the cursor points. desktop


Sublime text Build: 4126 chrome version : 98.0.4758.102 edge version: 98.0.1108.50 firefox version: 97.0 (64-bit) PC: DELL XPS 15 9570 OS: windows 11 pro OS build: 22000.434 Version: 21H2 Graphic card: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti with Max-Q Design Graphic card drivers version: 30.0.15.1179

On Chromium-based browsers, try to access chrome://accessibility (it will redirect to edge://accessibility on Edge, doesn't matter), then check all under Accessibility modes. image You will need to do this every time you want to extract text from Chromium-based browsers, per (re-)launch of browser.

This workaround is provided by developer of another similar program.
