I was using my Mac and I had to go to Google Chrome. I was on a website and Voice kept putting me in the tool bar for creating new tabs and managing them. When I tried to stop interacting with the toolbox, it made the unrecognized command sound effect, and I could not escape the toolbar. Do you know if there are any tips that I can use for using Google Chrome on a Mac with voiceover? Thank you and have a wonderful day.
