I think its a w e problem. with windows update if you use the number pad to
move the mouse pointer to the top left then arrow down it will read what is on
the screen. but once you arrow down to the bottom and arrow up w e will not
read the screen until you use the top left w e hot keys again.
it is accessible for the most part.
but one little problem i had when i was useing it last year.
it kept forgetting some of the passwords i saved to it. so what good is it?
so i don't use it anymore.
i keep them in a text file , in code
