Steps to reproduce:
- Turn on mouse tracking in NVDA.
- Hover mouse cursor over taskbar items. In the same way, navigate the toolbar buttons of Windows Explorer, the top menus of the New Notepad application with the mouse.
Actual behavior:
NVDA will just say "DesktopWindowXamlSource" instead of naming items.
The same is true for all applications developed with Windows 11's new Flat Design. Like PowerToys that don't come pre-installed with Windows.
Narrator items read their names as expected.
Expected behavior:
NVDA must accurately report information on items, as Narrator does.
