Thanks for giving this some thought. But yes, I confirmed that the file went to my downloads folder. Later, I moved it to another folder, but still no success. Firefox's open file dialog isn't picking up a lot of files. For example, it detects only two-thirds of those in my Downloads folder, and only two out of about twenty in its current folder.

Wondering if it will actually work now. I think this is the third time I've tried to install this extension. It always sits in firefox for a while and then spontaneously disappears. Now I've got Windows 10, so who knows? Anyway I didn't have any problem installing from the open dialog box. Maybe this is a bit too obvious, but are you sure your downloads are going into the folder you think they are? I ask because Firefox remembers where you last put a download, and will save in that folder unless you change it. I actually had the same problem as you until I realised my girlfriend had been using firefox and so the add-on file went into my pictures folder instead of download. A quick way to check is to hit alt-j for the download library and see what the "containing folder" is. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Saturday, July 1, 2017 9:41 AM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Webvisum Mike, along with anyone else who might have an answer. I've downloaded Webvisum and attempted to install it via the method described on the Blind Bargains page. You're told to open Firefox, press control-o for open, and then to navigate to the Webvisum file on your system. However, Firefox is not finding it. I've placed the file in two different folders, just in case, but I get the same result each time. Note that I have "all files" selected in the Firefox open file dialog, and I have file extensions set to show in Windows Explorer. For example, I have numerous files in a folder I call "Accessible programs." When I browse with Firefox's open file dialog, only two are picked up, neither of them the Webvisum extension. Any ideas? -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Mike B.

Webvisum hasn't done anything with their plug-in in at least three years. That's ashame. You need to pay for captcha solving via a couple other options. Try CaptchaBeGone.com or Rumola.com. Rumola works with Firefox and Google Chrome. As I mentioned on this topic several months ago, I thought this would be a great thing for Jaws to try to support, but Mr. Damry wasn't interested. Fortunately, there are only a few websites that don't have accessible captcha solution alternatives.
