Hi, I just tried this and W E is speaking the menu bar properly for me, whether I use the internet explorer 64-bit option or the regular one. Try going into Verbosity Settings, down to menu and mae sure the "Option" box is checked. Although this problem is isolated to 64-bit apps it's a good idea to look in the most obvious places first :). I am also running Windows 7 Pro 64-bit and the new W E beta. Munawar A.

However, I've had problems with W E under standard user accounts so try switching to an admin account and see if the problem persists or elevate your account to admin if it is a standard user account. In my case, control states don't always read correctly under standard users but hopefully this will be corrected soon. Good luck!
