RE: Win 10 And WE 9.5.4
Since we are on this general subject, which web browsers work with Window-Eyes 9.5.4? It is my understanding that Firefox doesn't work with it.

On my current system, which runs the latest version of Windows 10, this is no longer true. Without exception, every default Window-Eyes app is running here. A few months back, someone had written to this list with the news that they had even gotten an app update from the Window-Eyes server. No doubt, this was because they had an outdated app, but I recall being very surprised to hear that app updates where available from the old Window-Eyes server. I know for certain that there was a time when the Window-Eyes app update server was not active. My guess is that there is some guardian angel or angels keeping Window-Eyes working for the many people throughout the world who need it. I am one of those who need it. I have yet to find any other screen reader which allows me to manage the connection and disconnection of attached devices between the host and virtual machines on the current version of VMWare Workstation. Indeed, this is very surprising to me, that is, that I cannot get Jaws or NVDA or Narrator to focus those device icons, but the truth is before me, and so I am saved by Window-Eyes. Also, I have yet to find a screen reader which is as perky reading email in Outlook which is part of Microsoft 365. Microsoft 365 is the new name of Office 365, the subscription-based Office product. The Office Enhance and Outlook Enhance Window-Eyes apps work perfectly to allow me to read and write in Outlook. So, Tom, I simply want to suggest that you don't give up on Window-Eyes.

RE: Safe Mode
I have done this on a Windows 7 computer but not in Windows 10. I turn on my computer and press F8 repeatedly. I hear a soft click when the hard drive stops cranking. I know that I'm where I want to be. I press down arrow once and press Enter. The menu contains several options including Repair and for Safe Mode. After pressing the Enter key, I am in Safe Mode. I then press Control+Alt+W and Window-Eyes comes on. HTH -Original Message- From: Talk On Behalf Of David via Talk Sent: Saturday, May 18, 2019 8:49 AM To: WE English Mailinglist Cc: David Subject: Safe Mode Listers, I could use some feedback here, please. Got a program that needs to run in Safe Mode. Being an uninstaller, it cannot be run in standard mode under Windows. When I try, it just tells me to click Yes, and it will restart Windows in Safe Mode. Sure, I clicked Yes, and the computer seemed to restart. At least I heard the Windows closing sound, and the fan dropped in speed. After a couple of minutes, nothing for a sound was heard. Am I mistaken, or should it be possible to set up Window-Eyes to run when Windows is in Safe Mode? Has anyone any experience on the matter? And, could please someone give me some step-instructions how to do the job? I sure tried to press the Alt-Ctrl-W combination, but nothing happened. Apparently my WE is not properly set up for safe Mode, or something else failed. For your info, am running Win7Pro 64Bit, and latest version of WE. If not WE can be used in Safe Mode, does anyone know if NVDA, or Jaws 18 could be an alternative? Any feedback is warmly welcome.

Re: Has anyone ever considered using the Apple Mac?
I echo many of the points made in other E-mails. I have a Windows Computer and N IPhone. I find I can do things on my PC that i can't do on the phone vice versa. Of course, I had to learn a new set of commands and jestures. I echo the thought that just because Apple has VoiceOver that not all web environments are accessible. For example, I love my church, but its web site is not the greatest. I would give it a C grade. It is no better with VoiceOver. Developers do not need to adhere to the Apple standard. I have heard from others that Android is not a cakewalk either.Again, one would need to learn a whole new set of commands and jestures. Again, the Android user is at the mercy of the app developers and the accessibility folks. As one lister indicated, it depends upon your needs and desires. Do some good research and give it good thought. -Original Message- From: David via Talk Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2018 11:57 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: David Subject: Re: Has anyone ever considered using the Apple Mac? Guess you are not lonely on the isle of wishing for more stability, like in the older days, when comes to electronics. As a matter of fact, many sighted people feel the same way. All the continious updates to Windows and software, do affect EVERYONE - not only visually impaired. As for Apple products, I have never even tried them, so cannot advice anything on that field. Still, you will want to go through your actual needs. For my part, one reason why I have never bothered the Apple products, is that certain of the software I am relying on, only runs under Windows. Getting a Mac would mean for me to stop using such software, and the disadvantage thereof seems higher than the gains of a bit more stability on the computer. Sure, I do know there exists ways of running a Mac with Windows, but you then still will have to face the many updates, I guess. Further, be aware that not all Windows periphals might have drivers for Mac. Such as your printer. Though Apple might have 24/7 assistance - over the phone or whatever - you will have to rely on it. A Windows machine is similar to what your friends and colleagues run, and getting help with things directly on-site, might prove easier. All depend on your situation, and your location. If for instance you lived in a place with no Apple store, and you had to pay for transportation every time you had to take your device to the store, so as to benefit from the special service you described, it could soon enough prove to be a troublesome solution; even if the assistance itself would claim to be free-of-charge. Compare it with having someone over for a cup of coffee and let them fix your issue. Again, it depend on what situation you are in. What need you have for assistance, what software you plan on using, and what other equipment you already have that might or moight not be compatible. Keep in mind, that even Apple products receive updates. Probably not that often, and perhaps not all that overturning in new layouts and so forth. But Apple land likely have its own challenges. Sure, they have a number of voices included in their products. But do these voices fit you? What about special terms, linked to your profession - will they be able to pronounce them correctly? Or, will they have optimal pronunciation dictionary capabilities, enough for you to taylor them to a bearable level? Otherwise a day in office might prove to be a true nightmare, sitting there listening to extremely badly pronounced special terms. I do have one locale voice on my computer here, manufactured by Vocalizer. It sounds very nice, clear and OK natural. Yet no matter how hard I try - with whichever screen reader or dictionary - it simply cannot be made to pronounce certain words correctly. And believe me, it becomes a real stressful experience over time. It even sometimes pronounce things such badly, that it causes misunderstandings. Since I have never used an Apple product, I could not tell what is the case on their screen reader voices. But you might want to do some research, as to what voices might be available, even for later purchase and installing. Many have chosen to use software that no longer is installed all on your local computer, but rather based on Online services. In some cases that might solve part of your learning curve, since they might be similarly working, whether you use Linux, Windows, Apple, or even Android based equipment. That is what we name cross-platform services. Yet, other software, even if they run off the net, might be quite different, from one platform to the other. One thing to keep in mind, is that the cross-platform services, will be updated just as often for all platforms. Let's take a thing like Firefox (and I just picked it out of the air, purely for samplification). If they decide to update, they will update the cross-platform software. This means, whether you run Mac, Android or Windows, you still will have to

Re: saving documents in Office 365
The easiest way I have found is to press F12. After it is pressed, you will be placed in a dialog with a suggested file name. You can edit this to your liking. Press Shift+Tab, and you should be in a list of folders. Arrow to the one you desire and press Enter. Tab till you reach the file name and press Enter. Your file should be saved in the desired folder.

Yes. I got a couple stands. One is a little tripod with a spring loaded slide clamp to hold the phone. The other is a laminated cardboard box that was originally designed for folks needing to scan documents while traveling on business. It folds up flat and when you expand it magnets hold it together. So you sit the phone on top with the camera looking through a peep whole and put what you want to scan in the box. There's two models. One with a little set of LED lights inside and the other without. It can use a battery or AC power. And it wasn't expensive. 29 or 39 bucks. something like that. I can't remember the name of it. But I'll look around to see if I kept any notes on it. I don't use either much because I don't have the need to scan books or long documents. But they work good.

Email: tom.kings...@charter.net Windows has an internal setting that tells it if a screen reader is running. Our screen readers turn this on when we load them and off when we close them. Windows uses it to make some changes that help our screen readers work better. It is also available for other programs to check when they launch and make themselves more accessible as well. The problem comes into play when something goes wrong with our screen reader, such as it stops talking but it’s not actually hung or crashed, which is the case for me when Internet Explorer throws an error. In my case I’m running Window-Eyes. So I load NVDA to see what’s going on. Sometimes this alone reopens the flow of speech from Window-Eyes. If not closing the error message with NVDA always brings Window-Eyes back to life. My understanding is that the same thing happens with JAWS. Next I unload NVDA and continue on my merry way. But closing NVDA turns off the screen reader setting in Windows even though I’m still running a screen reader. This is not the fault of NVDA or exclusive to it. Any screen reader will do the same. This is where this program comes into play. In order to turn the screen reader setting back on we would have to unload our screen reader and reload it. And in order to do that and insure the best result we would have to close all open programs, close our screen reader, reload it, and then reopen those programs and do whatever is necessary, e.g. load files, to get back to work. This is because our screen readers need to see some programs load in order to configure themselves to work correctly with those programs. The Screen Reader Check program allows you to reset the screen reader setting without having to close and reopen your programs and screen reader. You can run this program and it will first check to see if the screen reader setting is on or off. If it’s on the program will simply notify you of this and close when you press the Ok button. If not it will attempt to turn the screen reader setting back on and then broadcast a system message to tell all open windows that a screen reader is running. It will then notify you that this was done and close when you press the Ok button. The ScreenReaderCheck.zip file will extract a ScreenReaderCheck folder. That folder includes License.txt, ReadMe.txt (this file), and SRC.exe. Simply unzip it into a folder of your choice. You may then wish to place SRC.exe in a more convenient place for quicker access. I gave the program a short name to make it easy to run from the run dialog. Just press Windows+R and enter drive:\path\src.exe. for example, if you place it in the root of your C-drive you would just enter C:\SRC.exe. You may also wish to open the context menu (Application key or Shift+F10) on SRC.exe in the folder you extracted it to and use “Send to†to send a shortcut to your desktop. Within the properties of that shortcut file, accessed through the context menu or Alt-Enter, you can assign a shortcut hot key to it. If you have any comments or inquiries please email me at tom.kings...@charter.net Below is a link to the ScreenReaderCheck.zip file. After downloading the file select it, open the context menu, P Properties, tab to the Unblock check box and check it. This will prevent you from having to go through the Windows security dialog in order to run SRC.exe. https://www.dropbox.com/s/ugpweuw5igmmg8q/ScreenReaderCheck.zip?dl=1 Hope it's helpful.

Re: QUERY
I have been following this thread and strongly agree. I had to do System Restore twice with sighted help to recover Windows. I have used it myself to get rid of programs that ci couldn't remove with Programs and Features. One would certainly not use System Restore if there is a risk of restoring a virus. You should be careful in using it. It can be used without sighted assistance when run normally. If you are concerned about security updates, these usually can be reapplied easily since Windows or your security program will likely prompt you to reinstall them after the System Restore is complete. -Original Message- From: anthony borg via Talk Sent: Friday, July 14, 2017 3:33 PM To: anthony borg Subject: QUERY HI CHRIS I CAN UNDERSTAND YOUR EXPLANATION AND HOW RESKI IT MIGHT BE, INFACT THAT'S WHAT I DID, I DOWNLOADED IT FROM THE INTERNET AND REINSTALLED IT.

Re: how do you move a file with w/e
I have never actualy tried to move a file. What I do is this. I highlight the file or files I want to move using the cursor keys. I then press CONTROL+C to copy the material to the clipboard. I then move to the directory in which I wish to place the file or files. I then paste them there with CONTROL+V. Next, I go back to the directory where the original file is and delete it. This puts the file in the Recycle Bin. I know there is a way to actually move a file, but at least this way, I am assured that my file is not lost or destroyed somewhere in the process. If worse comes to worse, I can restore the file from the recycle bin. Of course, when I am totally satisfied, I empty the Recycle Bin.

Selecting E-mail Recipients
I won’t write about this any more because I’m as tired of writing about it as you are of hearing about it. I have the latest version of Window Eyes, the latest version of NVDA, and the latest version of JAWS on my Windows 7 64-bit Pro computer. Selecting E-mail recipients by typing in the To field works perfectly for me in Window-Eyes.In JAWS, nothing is spoken, and no suggestions appear. The Read Current Line and arrow keys only read my typed text. When I tab out and back into the field, only my typed text appears. In NVDA, likewise, when I start typing in the To field, I can only read my typed text. If I arrow down or up, I still only hear my typed text. However, if I tab out and then back into the field, I hear the first suggestion spoken.

Re: JAWS Software Synthesizer Volume
It is good that one can do this, but it's sad that JAWS, the program said to be the anointed screen reader for all time, does not provide a way to adjust the synthesizer volume. On another note, it seems that help with nmouse movement and adjusting how many pixels the mouse moves with each key press is difficult to find. Yet, since I really don't worry too muich about either of these, I enjoy those things about Window-Eyes. Nontheless, I am learning my way around JAWS and getting along well.

Re: laptop advice

If you have 4 gb of RAM, my opinion is that Win7is the way to go. Win10 in my experience is a bit more memory intensive and therefore a bit slower than 7 with 4 gb of RAM. I've put my money where my mouth is on this one as I just ordered a RAM upgrade for my Win10 computer from 4 GB to its max of 8. I have that much confidence that it will make the difference that I spent the money on a new RAM chip and will even have to pay someone to put it in as it's an Asus laptop, which are notorious for being difficult to service as an end user due to difficult designs for replacing hardware.

Re: The Phasing Out of Window-Eyes
Thank you, Samuel. -Original Message- From: Samuel Wilkins via Talk Sent: Friday, October 14, 2016 2:27 PM To: bj colt via Talk Subject: The Phasing Out of Window-Eyes Hello John, I have been drafting a letter to VFO because, as you know, there is speculation that Window-Eyes is going to be phased out. If it is, I am not switching to Jaws, because I won't be able to afford it, amongst other reasons. However, in my letter, I have pointed out that if Window-Eyes goes, it provides a significant problem for blind people wanting to get into work, as not everyone has an access to work fund. Moreover, one of the few ways we can work, especially for younger people, is volunteering, and there, we may be in a crisis, as IT technicians are paranoid about NVDA, since it is open source, and they think it could contain a virus or compromise security in another way. We would be in limbo, as they won't want NVDA, and they won't pay for Jaws, as Access to Work won't pay for equipment for unpaid work, so you would have to buy a license for every computer you use out of your own pocket. What do you think? Also, I have heard that they are developing both Magic and ZoomText. How come they are doing that, but phasing out Window-Eyes? To me, this is a case of double standards. -- Regards, Samuel Wilkins ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.

AVG
I was not really satisfied with Eset Smart Security, so when my subscription ran out, I tried AVG. In that whole process, I found out how difficult it was to remove Eset from my computer. Nonetheless, I was able to do so. I used Ninite to install the free version of AVG. The protection interface seems fairly easy to use. The Ninite installer did not have the imfamous worthless Zen screen. However, from time to time, I get a message informing me that AVG wants to do a web tune-up. It wants to change my IE security settings, my home page to Chrome, my search engine to Bing, and my default browser to Chrome. Sometimes, this dialog comes up in a worthless custom control. Sometimes, it comes up in HTML format. I don’t want to change my home page or my search provider. In the process, I am also asked to click on Extentions, but I have no way of doing so. The changes made to Internet Explorer 11 cause web pages to load more slowly or hang. I have reset my IE settings twice. How do you make this dialog work better for you and keep it from coming up? I am using Windows 7 64-Bit Pro and IE 11. ___ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
