appModules/explorer: announce tab switches in Windows 11 2022 Update (22H2) (#14770) Closes #14388 Summary of the issue: Later revisions of Windows 11 22H2 (2022 Update) introduced tabbed File Explorer. At the moment NVDA does not announce tab names when switching to different tabs. Description of user facing changes NVDA will announce the name of the tab being switched to in Windows 11 2022 Update File Explorer. Description of development approach Similar to tabbed Notepad (#14588), use UIA element selected event handler to announce tab names. Unlike Notepad, speech should not be cut off to let NVDA announce focused item when File Explorer opens. Commits: * appModules/explorer: announce tab switches in Windows 11 2022 Update (22H2). Re #14388. Later revisions of Windows 11 2022 Update (22H2) introduces tabs to File Explorer, allowing users to press Control+Tab and Control+Shift+Tab to switch betwen tabs. Just like Notepad for Windows 11, UIA element selected event is fired when tab switching happens. Unlike Notepad implementation, speech will not be canceled (cut off) because doing so prevents announcement of list view items.
