Yes, I don't know what that is. It doesn't seem to do anyting, so I just hear it and make a mental note of it and go on. It happens usually at the end of a download, like when I'm downloading a book from BARD.

A side note, anyone else? I was just in internet explorer in the website where I get allot of lockups. I got none but it is about 4:30 am so likely little net traffic here and not allot of dynamic, flash and other ads being scheduled since they don't want to waste money with ads when few people are online in this area. Now, when I closed internet explorer and returned to my desktop program I heard a ca ching and WindowEyes said there was no information bar, think it was information bar and then I was placed into my desktop program as usual. I used alt-f4 to close internet explorer so this message should not have happened unless WindowEyes was confused about something and so I thought I would see if others have heard this or something similar. It may indicate WindowEyes processing a message or something like being in the wrong script or something if it happens so it was unusual, happened and we need to see if it is happening often enough to be in consideration when thinking about internet explorer, focus and intermittant problems we are encountering. But if others are not having these types of problems we might not need to include them in looking at the problem at hand - don't know but it was an incorrect response by WindowEyes to a simple alt-f4 to close internet explorer.

RE: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
Hi Neville, As you no doubt recall, you and I discussed the issue of the default Table header setting being to read colum and row headers. While I can certainly confirm that this setting is the default, on reflection I think it was an attempt by the developer to give a consistent starting-point for table navigation. Wile, at first, I found this setting to be a nuisance, (especially given the fact that it bothered me that perhaps something serious was wrong), over the last month or so I have come to appreciate that it may indeed be a stroke of genious on the part of the developer. This is because at least it gives the user a lot of information which might be helpful as they encounter new tables whose structure they do not know yet. I'm learning to see the good intentions of software developers. "They need to create somewhat safe initial settings for their software, especially given that not all, if not few, users are savvy Besides, it only takes a few presses of Control-Shift-H to rotor to the setting you like.

RE: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
Hi Tony, Please take this in the spirit in which it is intended, that is, to help you have a more pleasant email reading and writing experience. I have found the need to move first from WLM to Thunderbird and then from Thunderbird to Outlook. The need to do this was the result of finding it extremely difficult, if not impossible, to experience reliable cursor tracking. Since moving to Outlook a couple of years ago, I have not had any cursor tracking problems. In short, I've had to care for my problem myself, rather than wait for AI Squared to solve it. I would like to suggest that you move to another email client, and, again, I intend this in order to help you. Three years is much too long, in my opinion, to force yourself to put up with these problems. As I've said to others, I believe we have the best chance to have an accessible email client if we use Outlook, as it is part of the Office suite, a widely-used Microsoft product.

Often I would hear "give us feedback" even after turning this off in the Windows10 settings, think it was "send us feedback" before I turned it off. Now when I switch pages or open a new program I will hear "Clear" or "clear button" meaning something else is popping up that I cant find after I hear it read using any of the WindowEyes keys so far. There a lot of moving parts to Windows and how the screen reader handles them can be a problem for focus, insert position and the relationship between them me thinks. That message is one thing that pushed me over the edge and convinced me to upgrade to Windows10 but I am not sure that just turning that message off, some folks had figured out a way to do it, I would have been happier with Windows8.1 or whatever it was.

Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
never have this happen with jaws or nvda. nothing happens like this the crashs always acure with window eyes. On 2/18/2016 3:04 AM, Rick Thomas via Talk wrote: Reading the postings it seems that this problem is not unique to WindowEyes but is perhaps worse in WindowEyes. There are indications that it happens most often in Internet Explorer or, at least, is most identifyable in InternetExplorer with the dialog that InternetExplorer says the program is not responding (same dialog when JAWS locked up in Internet Explorer) but WindowEyes will not usually notify you the problem has occurred and just locks up - this should be fixed by AISquared so we can be notified and close the offending program. Note that it is likely not Internet Explorer lockinng up but some program being called or used by Internet Explorer like one that might display an ad or flash or something because closing the program that is not responding does not close Internet Explorer but after closing the program not responding you are still in Internet Explorer and can continue working in that program. Some have noticed better results when not using background processes like the automagic update of synced programs like cloud related programs, note that OneNote and other things that come with our Operating Systems also can be using these types of features by default. Also, there allot of Live Tiles that will access the internet automagically and send or gather information from external online web pages and, or, web services which is akin to using a cloud service in that both have to access something on the internet and thus prone to internet transmission and many other problems. Even programs that you would think wouldn't access the internet from your desktop might be doing something online behind the scenes so this is one possible avenue but tonarrow things down we can do a few things. First, you folks who use Mazilla and Chrome for your browsers, have you noticed any lockups at all using WindowEyes? Second, the next time I get a Internet Explorer lockup I will try and hit the Debug button instead of the close button to see what I can find out about the error like what program(s) are related to it if the error will give me that much detail. I forget the WindowEyes hot key to copy a MessageBox which is usually not able to be read with the normal arrow keys, anyone remember it off the top of your head?

Wouldn't it be nice for the Ai Squared staff to chime in on this topic. They could outline for us what issues that WE has with IE, whether the cloud is a issue and so on. In the past the staff always says it is a issue with IE and not WE but a better explaination sure would be nice.

Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
Note also, that JAWS 17 added a feature to automatically restart itself if it can’t talk to the window that has focus for 5 seconds. This essentially solves the lockup problem for JAWS, at the expense of a 5 second hang and any non saved options being lost. I expect we could probably write an App that does essentially the same thing, perhaps with an little extra nudge from an outside program. UNIX developers have often build in auto restart service functionality.

That message is one thing that pushed me over the edge and convinced me to upgrade to Windows10 but I am not sure that just turning that message off, some folks had figured out a way to do it, I would have been happier with Windows8.1 or whatever it was. Anyway, there should be a way to turn off that popup and perhaps someone will RePost the solution.

I noticed on e*trade windoweyes would not expand a item labeled Tax Documents but JAWS did eexpand it so I could access the list of links to get to my tax documents and it made me wonder if this new html5 stuff and how the browsers handle it is causing WindowEyes problems and perhaps causing it to try and navigate around looking for something it cant find and thus causing delays and, in some cases, crashes when things get locked up. I can run some tests using JAWS, havent done that yet, but don't have nor understand how to use nvda correctly so thought I would ask if anyone else has noticed these types of problems in WindowEyes and worked around them with other screen readers to determine if it is unique to mysituation or if this is a problem worth looking at trying to narrow down via testing and getting some more specifics for the WE Staff if they are interested in our test results.

RE: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
Reading the postings it seems that this problem is not unique to WindowEyes but is perhaps worse in WindowEyes. There are indications that it happens most often in Internet Explorer or, at least, is most identifyable in InternetExplorer with the dialog that InternetExplorer says the program is not responding (same dialog when JAWS locked up in Internet Explorer) but WindowEyes will not usually notify you the problem has occurred and just locks up - this should be fixed by AISquared so we can be notified and close the offending program. Note that it is likely not Internet Explorer lockinng up but some program being called or used by Internet Explorer like one that might display an ad or flash or something because closing the program that is not responding does not close Internet Explorer but after closing the program not responding you are still in Internet Explorer and can continue working in that program. Some have noticed better results when not using background processes like the automagic update of synced programs like cloud related programs, note that OneNote and other things that come with our Operating Systems also can be using these types of features by default. Also, there allot of Live Tiles that will access the internet automagically and send or gather information from external online web pages and, or, web services which is akin to using a cloud service in that both have to access something on the internet and thus prone to internet transmission and many other problems. Even programs that you would think wouldn't access the internet from your desktop might be doing something online behind the scenes so this is one possible avenue but tonarrow things down we can do a few things. First, you folks who use Mazilla and Chrome for your browsers, have you noticed any lockups at all using WindowEyes? Second, the next time I get a Internet Explorer lockup I will try and hit the Debug button instead of the close button to see what I can find out about the error like what program(s) are related to it if the error will give me that much detail. I forget the WindowEyes hot key to copy a MessageBox which is usually not able to be read with the normal arrow keys, anyone remember it off the top of your head?

When I used to have Windows-7 and WE 8.4(?), and I often got the Interwnet Explorer has stopped working or an error caused Internet Explorer to close.

Now the only time I seem to get the, internet explorer has stopped working, messages is when I am watching a video from dailymotion.com.

Hi: Yup, WE does not usually read that dialog, just locks up. I just ran through some web pages that lock up allot with WindowEyes using JAWS. After navigating through a few of them JAWS reported that Internet Explorer was not responding and had the buttons to close the program. WindowEyes will just lock up and you have to use narrator or another screen reader to close, even to be aware of, that dialog. I have seen WindowEyes lock up like this in other programs as well although not as often and it is likely that if a program has a problem WindowEyes will lock up instead of continuing to work unlike other screen readers. Someone had had a problem like this with some game and found it was that WindowEyes had some kind of threading problem where it locks up if a program locks up and he had to set some priority for either the game or WindowEyes to get around this if I remember. I don't know how to set the WindowEyes threading priority nor the Internet threading priority to test this whether this might at least get the dialog to read - any ideas?

Hello Rick, No, you are not imagining problems in WE 9.X. A I Squared seems to be annoyingly silent about solutions or even recognizing there are those, for what ever reasons, WE 9.X just does not work reliably. By now, I would think Tech Support would have loads of notes about the configuration of systems that are having problems. I would think they could start noticing patterns and recognize equipment that either needs to be updated, or switched out for something else. I believe WE 9 has issues with memory. On my system, if I left the system stay idle for two three hours, and then start using it, it is a matter of minutes before I get a lock up, Speech goes quiet, or an outright Freeze of the system. All requiring a total shut down and re-start. Rarely does using the short cut key to re-start WE 9, work. I do not wish to buy JAWS, or even entertain going over to JAWS. I like WE and have used it for years. I wish A I Squared was a bit more up front with their customers, but remaining quiet, which gives the impression they are ignoring problems, seems to be their way of communicating with customers.Ignoring problems is not a smart way to run a business, and if done long enough, the problems do not go away, but the customers do. Even if A I Squared would say, Yes, we have a problem on some systems. We are not sure just why some have issues and others do not, but we are working on finding a solution.even something like this would at least keep me from pulling my hair out, thinking that the problem could be my system, or something in it that is causing issues. Honesty goes a long way in keeping my loyalty. Silence on the other hand makes me feel as if I am ignored. I keep thinking if I had more memeory, that just maybe WE 9 would work a bit better. Any here with 16 GB of RAM having problems with WE locking up, or Speech going away?

Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
Hi Dave, I'm with you 100 on that. I keep getting the same response "it's not a WE issue" Everything I've reported from Windows 7 and WLM, Windows 8 and WlM, and now Windows 10 and WLM. I keep getting the same reply. I'm told it' it is either one of these: a windows focus issue, an issue with my virus, audio drivers, etc. I know I'm not the only one using a Del pc. My windows 8 pc is del, and this windows 10 is a Del. I can truthfully say that not one issue that I've reported in the last 2 years has been resolved. Not once has GW or AI Squared told me yes we know there are some issues with some configuration and such and we are working to resolve them. Heck, I've been reporting the same problem with WLM since 2011 and I'm still reporting the same issue.. I have been a loyal WE user since 2004 when I made the switch from Jaws. . In the past 2 or 3 years I've had things that worked just fine and then I get an upgrade to the next version of WE and it no longer works, and I'm told it's a windows issue, when I state that it worked in the previous versin of WE, I get no reply. I have read documentation, reinstalled WE, got rid of the Del software that comes with their PC's and done everything that has been suggested. What's a person to do??

Hi Rick: When I press control-alt-w, Window-eyes restarts and then I can read that edialog. Sometimes, Window-eyes does not start right away, but within 2 or three seconds, I hear the asending tone and Windo-eyes starts again. Then Ican alt-tab back to the dialog window and I can usually read it.

Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
I hate to chime in here, but I often get the message that Internet Explorer is not responding. I also get a message that a problem with the web page caused Internet Explorer to close and re-open the page. If it does that, I consider myself lucky and can conti9nue working with the page. Sometimes, I hear a chime. Sometimes, Window-Eyes speaks the messages and other times not. Sometimes, Control+a_w works and sometimes not. Sometimes, starting Window-eyes from the run dialog works and sometimes not. In very few cases, am I able to start Narrator or NVDA. -Original Message- From: Tony C via Talk Sent: Wednesday, February 17, 2016 5:04 AM To: Rick Thomas ; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?

Hi: I get allot of situations, especially in Internet Explorer, where WindowEyes will stop speaking either for several seconds or entirely. This happens very often. Sometimes I fire up narrator and hear the program is not responding and click the close button and windoweyes will come back. If anyone else is experiencing these types of problems have you determined if this is unique to WindowEyes or if it happens often with other screen readers. I noticed on e*trade windoweyes would not expand a item labeled Tax Documents but JAWS did eexpand it so I could access the list of links to get to my tax documents and it made me wonder if this new html5 stuff and how the browsers handle it is causing WindowEyes problems and perhaps causing it to try and navigate around looking for something it cant find and thus causing delays and, in some cases, crashes when things get locked up. I can run some tests using JAWS, havent done that yet, but don't have nor understand how to use nvda correctly so thought I would ask if anyone else has noticed these types of problems in WindowEyes and worked around them with other screen readers to determine if it is unique to mysituation or if this is a problem worth looking at trying to narrow down via testing and getting some more specifics for the WE Staff if they are interested in our test results.

Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
I actually never thought Window-eyes was causing the browser crashing problem in IE. I just know Window-eyes does not announce the crash and NVDA lets me know what is happening by announcing the crash once I invoke NVDA. By the way, using more than one screen reader to accomplish various tasks is something folks have been doing for twenty years. So having two screen readers on your system just makes good sense to me.

So it is not WE that causes this particular problem. ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

Re: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes?
I've also had the problem. I didn't know there was a dialog coming up telling me that IE wasn't responding. WE used to read this but for what ever reason does not any more. It wasn't until my sighted GF told me it was there that I knew Ie was not responding. -Original Message- From: Rick Thomas via Talk Sent: Wednesday, February 17, 2016 4:35 AM To: 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Subject: Is WindowEyes Causing All Internet And Other Crashes? Hi: I get allot of situations, especially in Internet Explorer, where WindowEyes will stop speaking either for several seconds or entirely. This happens very often. Sometimes I fire up narrator and hear the program is not responding and click the close button and windoweyes will come back. If anyone else is experiencing these types of problems have you determined if this is unique to WindowEyes or if it happens often with other screen readers. I noticed on e*trade windoweyes would not expand a item labeled Tax Documents but JAWS did eexpand it so I could access the list of links to get to my tax documents and it made me wonder if this new html5 stuff and how the browsers handle it is causing WindowEyes problems and perhaps causing it to try and navigate around looking for something it cant find and thus causing delays and, in some cases, crashes when things get locked up. I can run some tests using JAWS, havent done that yet, but don't have nor understand how to use nvda correctly so thought I would ask if anyone else has noticed these types of problems in WindowEyes and worked around them with other screen readers to determine if it is unique to mysituation or if this is a problem worth looking at trying to narrow down via testing and getting some more specifics for the WE Staff if they are interested in our test results.
