Re: restart

Thanks so much.  It really helps and speeds things up.  I have some old 
shortcuts but those appear to be outdated.  Thanks again.

Hi.  In both Windows 7, 8.1 and in Windows 10, if you're on the desktop,
you can press alt plus f4 and it'll take you to a screen with several
options.  One of them is restart, so press enter on that and it'll
restart windows.It took me a while to learn that trick.

Good afternoon,

Is there a quick way to do a restart rather than going through the 
options?  I am using windows 7 and WE  9.3

RE: Dictionary of WE 9.4 Sounds?

[Rod Hutton via Talk]

Hi Ed,

The sounds which WE uses are stored in the Window-Eyes folder, which is
contained in the GW Micro folder, which itself is stored under the Program
Files (x86) folder.
There's only a handful of files in this folder with a .wav extension, and
these are what WE uses.
If you open the Sounds tab of the Sound applet (which itself is opened using
the Speaker icon in the system tray), there is a branch of the tree, near
the bottom of the tree, where you'll see the Window-Eyes system event
sounds, and this is where you can see the associated sounds, and change them
if you want.
Also, your default WE profile folder, which can be opened by choosing
Explore Profile folder from the File menu in the WE control panel, is where
all WE apps are installed, and each app often has a number of .wav files
which it uses.
Often the .wav file will be named so as to be associated with the app which
uses it, but there is no hard and fast rule about these filenames.
This is about all there is to say about this. Smile

Hth,

Rod

Subject: Dictionary of WE 9.4 Sounds?

Hi, WE ommunity -
Does a dictionary of WE sounds exist somewhere? I have not found anything
like I am hoping is available. I envision a file or webpage that lists
functions (WE loading or unloading; progress indicator; whatever is
happening when the 4 descending tones play; et. Al.) followed by a button or
link that plays a clip of the sound. I have attempted to learn the
vocabulary of chimes, glissandos, and tones, but many remain
incomprehensible to me. Some of the mystifying tones most likely are
generated by Windows rather than by WE, but having those tones in an
accessible dictionary would be a big help, too.
 
I will appreciate any help anyone may be able to give.
 
Many thanks-
Ed Culpepper

No, I can't say it was easy or trivial. But if it motivates you then it

Re: Asus PC and window eyes

Although I do see the benefit of having two Windows-keys, I think 
finding a keyboard with that feature may be rare these days. Can't

Re: Firefox Question

[Carol and Roger via Talk]

Hi,

Under tools, options, general, there is, after pressing tab once, a 
choice of home page, previous page or blank page.  If you choose home 
page, you will need to set a page of your choosing by typing in the web 
site after pressing tab one more time.  Tab to OK and press enter.


If you choose a blank page, you can still get to your home page by 
pressing alt-home.
