Hey Tom.
Still love using Winamp for music on my Windows 10 machine. Modern skins have 
never been supported by screen readers as far as I know. Switching to classic 
is always the first thing I do when installing. Glad you got everything 
working. Unfortunately I never use the library feature at all, so I haven't 
experienced the annoyance you described with the spacebar and don't have a 
solution. I'm surprised the JAWS bypass key helps though as I was pretty sure 
the play/pause from the keyboard is a Winamp keystroke.

Well, I have egg on my face. After a couple of reinstallations and my discovery 
of the JAWS help file, I got things going. The information was quite helpful. I 
unchecked visualization and the detector plug-in. I was already using the 
classic skin. I couldn’t find anything about modern skin support in the latest 
Winamp version. However, the program runs much more smoothly. Thanks so much 
for everyone’s help. I am left with one petty annoyance. As you know, the 
spacebar has the play/pause function. I would expect this while in the main 
window. However, it also occurs in the library window. The work-around is to 
press the JAWS bypass key before pressing the spacebar. As I said, it is only a 
little nuisance. But it would be nice not to need this work-around. Thanks 
again.
