Having considered a few alternatives, I decided to migrate from Outlook
Express on my old XP machine, and to Thunderbird on the new Windows8
machine. Newest version of thunderbird was downloaded and installed two
days ago, and I have made sure the Thunderbird set files are loading
when operating the software. Further I have confirmed that the TBEnhance
app is loaded.Everything seems well so far.
When composing a ewnew message, I am experiencing a quite strange
behavior. I have set my keyboard voice to "words and numbers". It works
just fine, for a while. Yet, all the sudden, without any further
notification or obvious reason, the voice starts to repeat every
keystroke as I type. That is, just like it would, if I had set my
keyboard voice to "single character mode". This behavior keeps going on,
until I do one out of two things> 1. I can Alt-Tab away from the message
I am composing, and then Alt-Tab back to the message, and things will go
back to normal; 2. Alternatively, I can finish up my message, send it,
and when I compose my next message, things are working just normal
again, for a while.
Anyone else experiencing this behavior, and have an explanation for this
case? BTW, when composing this very message, the keyboard worked in word
mode, for all the above text. But when I started out on this paragraph
you are reading right now, I am hearing every character as I type. for a
fast typer like me, this is no less than anoying, to have to listen to
every keystroke.
Greatly would appreciate any feedback on this matter.
