Re: Win 10 And WE 9.5.4
Hi Rod lets thank the God of Window eyes keeping it alive very hard to kill a great program that just worked straight out the box. And i once said on a list just after We was discontinued i said that We would work for a few more win 10 versions. And its true so far. cheers Michael On 4/09/2020 12:51 pm, Rod Hutton via Talk wrote: Hi Tom, At one time, there were a few apps which needed to be either disabled or uninstalled in order for Window-Eyes to work in Windows 10.

Re: Has anyone tried the latest version of Winamp with WE9.5.4.0?
Hey Rod, great to hear from you, and to know that you are still alive and well. All are still up and walkin' round here. As for Winamp, that option for two versions of Winamp on the same machine kinda escaped my memory. As of this moment, I haven't done anything with the new beta. I thought I'd give it a try on Monday, but I happened to be listening to an audio stream at the time and didn't wish to interrupt my listening, so I aborted the installation. I will get back to it some time this week, I'm sure, and will let ya know how things turned out. Again, thanks for the reminder, Larry On 8/30/2020 4:42 PM, Rod Hutton via Talk wrote: Hi Larry, I’ve been thinking over your note for the last while. I have not tried the newest Winamp, but it occurs to me that if this newer Winamp is anything like the older one, then you could install it in a different folder from your current installation and it wouldn’t mess up the older installation. Of course, whatever icon it places on the desktop would refer to the newer installation rather than your original installation. Okay, that would be the first complication, namely, you would be advised to rename the desktop icon of your original Winamp so that you would not lose it after the new installation overwrote it. You could then proceed to test the Jeff Bishopscript functionality and see if it works. The only way it would work is if the developer of the newer Winamp keeps the names of the key components of the original Winamp application since the Jeff Bishop script is tied to these. Anyway, these are some observations from me, perhaps something to chew on. Smile. Take care, Rod Sent from my iPod On Aug 18, 2020, at 10:42 AM, Larry Higgins via Talk wrote: Guess the subject says it all. I was looking around on another list this morning, and someone pointed out a link that I never would have thought would play in Winamp, because it seems to be accessible only from a specific Web page. In other words, the extension, such as it was couldn't possibly be played with Winamp 5.666, but apparently be played with 5.8 Beta. So what I am really asking. Do the Jeff Bishop scripts still work well with the latest version of Winamp? I mean, just trying to test this web link might not be worth it to me if the scripts will not function as well as they do now.
