Test Environment:OS Build: Windows 11 version Dev (OS Build 27749.1000)
Application: Power toys version: v0.86.0
Screen reader: Narrator
Repro Steps:
Open the Microsoft PowerToys app and turn on Narrator.
Go to the "System Tools" tab and expand it.
Use the down arrow key to navigate to "Text Extractor" and press Enter.
Toggle on the "Enable Text Extractor" option.
Press "Windows+Shift+T".
Use the Tab key to navigate to the "Cancel" button and listen for the announcement.
Note:
When navigating to this button with JAWS or NVDA, these screen readers only announce the role ("button") without the name.
User experience:
Screen reader users are unable to understand the purpose of the Cancel button as it lacks a proper accessible name. This creates usability challenges, especially for users relying on assistive technologies.
The "Cancel" button should be announced with the name first, followed by the role.
❌ Actual Behavior
When navigating to the "Cancel" button, Narrator announces it as "button cancel," which seems unusual. Typically, the name of the control is announced first, followed by its role.
