Hi: WindowEyes again just locked up during a BootUp.
This is a similar situation to when it locks up during some editing which
happens far less freequently but in both cases the symptoms seem the same.
When I hard shut down the computer a message popped up saying WindowEyes was
not responding and I had to click a button to continue the shutdown.
Since I had no keyboard access while WE was locking things up I pressed the
button on the computer and held it in until I forced it to turn off.
Just a note, WindowEyes was not responding so it was locked up during BootUp
which does happen very often. I notice it happens after I have been working
in Outlook Express or using Internet to work on the web but not when I have
been working in a simple text editor like NotePad or working in files and
folders using the basic Windows Operating system features.
So, perhaps this will help narrow down the problem since I get it very often
if I dont open and then close a Windows Folder or NotePad file after working
on the Internet or after working in Outlook Express and then shut down the
computer - it shuts down usually but will lock up during the ReBoot.
Someone said there was a problem with WindowEyes and how it uses MSA or UIA,
I forget, which would seem to be a bugg but I run Windows XP and IE8 so my
system is so old I can have no gripes except it has happened for over a year
now and from some messages on list it looks like it is still a problem with
newer versions as well.
Perhaps a script or something can fix it, there are some pretty good
scripters on the scripting list.
