I guess, what you have problem with, in the V3, can best be summed up in one
word: EVERYTHING. I downloaded the program update, as there is no way
around, if you want to stay up-to-date, with your definitions database.
The software will open a screen, that to win-eyes will look more or less
empty. Even attempting to use the mouse, simply produces a series of beeps
(plings). There is no text, no buttons, no choices - nothing - recognized by
WE.
I found that in the SysTray you will have an Icon, that you can press
ENTER, and you will have a drop-down menu, where you can find a choice of
Scan An d Repair. But it won't let the blind user see any information, not
even gives any feedback when the scan is complete, and you are ready to do
the repair. If you, after a while simply just choose to click on the repair
button in the drop-down menu, you get no feedback whether or not, it has
been done.
I agree: Advanced Windows Care (upto v2.9), was well accessible, even if it
was a bit mouse intensive. Advanced System Care (v3) - please make sure you
are aware of the change in the name, and don't get messed up, as to what you
ACTUALLY are running on your computer - is totally INACCESSIBLE.
If anyone think they know how to operate it with WE, please post a
step-by-step instruction, including how to operate, how to make neccessary
settings, how to know when the scan/repair has finished, and what they
actually have found/repaired, And how to ever get any information from the
screen.
Once again, make sure we are talking the right software. This is NOT
Advanced Windows Care (AWC), but the newest version - released a couple of
weeks ago - Advanced System Care (ASC); both from Iobit. It is really a
pity, as the AWC did do a good job, and was easily operated, first you got
used to it.

Hi Steve,
Yes, I'm using it just fine with Window-Eyes. It's mouse intensive, but it
is working pretty good. I have a few Window-Eyes friends who are also
using this product with success.
What are you having problems with? If I can help, I'll gladly do so.
<smile>
It's a great product.
Thanks much.

I found Advanced Windows Care up to version 2.9 to be a useful product
easily navigable (for the most part) by use of the WE mouse keys. But in
version 3.0 Iobit has changed not only the product name but also the
interface. Has anyone had success working with the new interface?
If you currently have version 2.9, beware of upgrading to version 3. If
you have automatic updating turned on, or is you click on "start the
download" from the news screen, the process will be pretty automatic and
will result in removal of 2.9 (and its useable interface) from your
computer.
Happy Thanksgiving to all.
Steve
