Doubtless, you are right. However, I think that perhaps a part of the
problem may be conflicting settings among versions of screen readers on
one PC as well as differing settings of multiple browsers on same PC's.
Clashing registry entries may add to the confusions of it all.

Hi, Maria. There are quite a few different computers out there, a
couple of different processors, and different graphics cards. These
can all create issues with screen readers. I'm sure someone will
enumerate more as well.

I have no such problem, but I keep wondering why so many of us
have so many different issues.
For one thing I want nothing to do with Chrome at this time, so
that's not a factor with me.
I'm just simply amazed at the level of such differing situations,
such as the horrible time Tom Beller has had with IE 11.

After installing the latest release of JAWS 17, I’m getting
limited menu access in IE11. For example, if I press the alt key
to bring up the file menus, only “file” and “help” are available.
With the JAWS cursor, I know edit, favorites, etc., are there,
but I can’t access them.
I can get to favorites with alt-a. Here again, however, I
encounter this weird binary situation where only two “favorites”
are available to me.
I’m having a similar experience with Chrome with the
right-mouse-click menu on links. (this undoubtedly explains the
problem I had yesterday following Brian’s suggestion for handling
PDF files in Chrome.)
I say this all occurred after I installed the current JAWS 17
release, but I’m not sure it’s the cause. I’m pretty sure I went
into IE after installing the update and initially had no problems.
I also found this morning that JAWS wasn’t reading
character-by-character in Word 2010. Fortunately, I fixed this
problem by a combination of Office 2010 repair and a JAWS repair
using the .exe file for the current release. However, these fixes
made no difference to IE.
For the record, I also ran a Malwarebytes scan, and no problems
were detected. Also, I’ve had no Windows updates in the past two
days.
I lean toward thinking this is a JAWS problem. Has anyone
experienced it and, if so, did you find a fix?
