Agreed. My braille display also simply says "autoblank" I'm guessing that as Thunderbird seems to default for message write to html, something naughty is happening with the interaction Browse Mode. I can arrow through and edit composed text. Vaughan. On 10/29/2016 12:33 PM, Jed

Hi! Not certain of when you get this issue, but when I do, I simply reload Window-Eyes by turning it off with the CTRL-backslash and then the alt F-4 then restarting the speech with the ctrl+alt+W. and this usually takes care of the problem. Good Luck & 73 de . On 28-Oct-16 19:33, Jed

Hi, Have you tried compacting found on the file menu. Also removing the history found under the Tools menu As a desperate measure, you could try the following. It would be worth taking a copy of the profile folder before doing the following. This is only in case something goes wrong. 1.

I was able to do that for a while, but it seems as though it moves to the middle of the message now, instead of reading from the top. Of course, if I use my way of using control-alt-w, and close Thunderbird, it is back like I had not closed Window-eyes. It loads so fast that I don't mind

This happens whether you are using thunderbird or windows live mail. And then it interrupts the message to tell you how many links there are. It would have been nice if it had said all that before it started to read the message at all. I haven't tried reloading window eyes to see if it

Ok, when using nvda, and Jaws they work just fine with thunderbird. Window eyes is the problem the thunderbird set files aren't even loaded you have to manually unload and thenload them before they are active. But that does not fix the back space issue when ereasing what you have written.

If you go into the Junk folder, there should be a menu with which you can change the status of a message. I only did this once, so I don't remember exactly what it says. It's easy, and since I did it, I have had no problem with Thunderbird looking out for me. Peace. Linette On
