John Glass. The IE Enhance app has a feature that lets you read the notification bar, which is where the download progress is being displayed. That's probably why the progress bar hot key isn't working--the fact of the notification bar containing the information, that is.
Unfortunately, I cannot just tell you to press whatever key combo, as I didn't like the factory hot key and changed it to something else. Not a problem, though. All you need do is open IE so the IE Enhance app loads, then open the WE control panel. Press Alt-A for the apps menu, followed by the letter I to jump to the IE Enhance app. Down arrow to help and press Enter. When the help dialog opens, press Alt-K to open the hot key manager. Tab to the hot key read only edit to learn which hot key has been assigned to announce the notification bar. Once you're satisfied that you have the hot key memorized, just press escape until you're out of the IE Enhance dialogs and the WE control panel. When pressed this hot key gives the download progress, the name of the file being downloaded, and the estimated time remaining. hth, Lou N. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of via Talk Sent: Monday, March 16, 2015 3:56 PM To: John Glass; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Checking Progress of Downloads I just use control-shift-t or even control-center.
