I'm no Microsoft fan. For those whose computers were updated to Windows 10 when they did not want it they had to confirm the process. And they had thirty days to revert back. Clicking on OK without reading what's on the screen is a common problem in the sighted world as well. There's a

Using the Cortana search box is your choice. Upgrading to Windows 10 is your choice. If your employer decides to move to Windows 10 that is their choice. Microsoft is pushing Windows 10 hard for very good business reasons. This is what businesses do and why for the first time a Windows upgrade

Good for you, but you must not have the latest update or something. When I hit enter to go to the web from the start menu, the title bar says "Core Input" and Win-eyes will not read anything except the links when I tab around. I have checked and double checked that Internet Explorer is my

OK, I think I understand. You are not forced to use Windows. If you do use windows, you are not forced to upgrade (for a while). If you do upgrade, you do not have to use Cortana. Yet MS is forcing you to use edge? On 5/20/2016 1:40 PM, Stephen Clark via Talk wrote: Tom, I'm sorry, but you

Yes, in fact, Jack, I have done a lot of research. It's why I'm not having a coronary over Edge. What will come in the future means absolutely nothing today. Take that to the bank and deposit it. You may get some interest on it. Then again, why bother? After all we will all die one day. And

This is just my personal opinion. So take it for what it's worth. Edge accessibility will come. Microsoft is not going to force us to use only Edge as someone on this list likes to say. Regarding searching from the Cortana search box? Yes, that is tied to Edge now. But for me, so what. My

Searching from the start menu will now only launch Edge for web results

Speaking of Windows 10 and the need for Window-eyes support for Edge, has any one noticed the following recent change? When you do a search from the start menu and you press enter to search the web for your result, it will now only bring up Edge regardless of what your default web browser is.
