Hello all, To roll back to windows 7, do the following. Go to control panel. In control panel go to the recovery option. At this point, use narrator since this area of windows 10 does not work with any screen readers including JAWS. Then use caps lock+right arrow to find the go back to windows 7 option. Press it. You will get a getting things ready screen, and then a confirmation of what you're about to do. Press the okay button. At this point, you will get a screen which says restoring windows, with no speech available. Just wait until you here the windows startup sound. Note: this option is only available a month after you upgrade to windows 10. Also, upgrading to an insider build and/or running defragment and optimize drives will delete the necessary files for the rollback to windows 7. Hope this helps, Daniel

She does not like any change and I took leave of my senses when I told her to upgrade. Well I will never learn. But she will like it in a few weeks. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kevin Sent: Friday, September 11, 2015 7:06 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] rooling back windows 10 if she didn't like win 10 because the desktop did not show the icons she is familiar with here is a way to fix that 1) To show/display the My computer icon, windows 10 calls it This PC right mouse click or press the application key on an empty space in the desktop .
