How to reproduce the issue?

1. Open https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/surface?at_preview_token=4FhxMZZq5RXQNNpOOuFqCLBpWwq30eLAUx7_sjX2n68&at_preview_index=1_2&at_preview_listed_activities_only=true in Edge.
2. Start NVDA.
3. Turn off your monitor.
4. Tab to the ‘Help me choose’ button and open the window. Focus will be on the close “X”.
5. Tab (x2).
6. Use the down arrow key to access the message content.
7. Navigate the prompts and selection until you get to the button selections.
8. Do you hear the shortcut key narrated?
9. Select [Alt]+[Shift]+[A]
10. What happened? Is it clear what the shortcut does?

What do you expect?

Clear instructions should be given to user on what action will be performed by using keyboard shortcut keys ‘[Alt]+[Shift]+[A]’ Observation: Here keyboard shortcut keys ‘[Alt]+[Shift]+[A]’ move the user from one button to the next, however this action/purpose is not conveyed to the user. Is the shortcut key intended to move the user from one button to the next? Why are the shortcut keys needed when the user can [Tab]/[Shift]+[Tab] or [up/down arrow] keys?

What actually happened?

The access shortcut keys ‘[Alt]+[Shift]+[A]’ that the user is instructed to use for the selection buttons just move the user from one button to the next, however this action/purpose is not conveyed to the user.

Do you have any screenshots or recordings to repro the issue?
