I have two contrasting experiences with version 9.1. On my 8.1. 64 bit machines, 9.1 has proven to be the most stable of Window-Eyes releases. I do experience some problems with the rewrite of browser support, where lines are repeated and some inconsistencies exist with links loading, but Window-Eyes has not crashed on these machines.
On my workstation at work, which is Windows 7 32 bit professional, Window-eyes is not a happy customer. Much of this is dues to the various security applications we are layered with - they don't allow Window-eyes to install properly, and they have not updated Internet Explorer. Corporate firewalls prevent app updating and the sending of crash reports. Excel is a very sour lemon. There is no AI Squared support for us in New Zealand, so we pay for a product which includes services we don't get. I have always known this, and the choice to purchase is voluntary. On balance - given the progress that Window-eyes 9.1 made over version 8.4, I am hopeful that the next release will be a leaps and bounds progression. It needs to be, as for me at least, it is not a producgt which is robust enough to deal with commercial/corporate installations over which the end user has no control. For me as the home user, I prefer Window-Eyes over NVDA, as the domestic experience is generally positive.

This WE-9.1 is the crashiest WE version ever. I don't even have to be on the web for it to completely go silent. Doing the hot key almost never brings it back up, so I have to reboot the computer from the button on the tower. Please fix this folks. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Darrell Bowles via Talk Sent: Thursday, May 14, 2015 10:57 AM To: Dave; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: Re: Is there a 9.2 on the horizon? -----Original Message----- From: Dave via Talk Sent: Wednesday, May 13, 2015 9:01 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Is there a 9.2 on the horizon? Hello, I am not Happy with my New 9.1. I have given it time and me time to learn to use it properly, but going on the Web is almost a for sure Circus where I am forced to slowly use the Up and Down Arrows. And even then, it doesn't take much at all for the program to lose its way. Often going completely quiet. I am not sure what New way the Folks at Window eyes has come up with to Browse the web, but this New way needs an Update. I have had one of the Tech Support Staff check out my system and he said everything looked Good. But, if I go and use the Web, I almost always have the system lock up, or go quiet. Sometimes it is hard to tell which has actually happened. Forcing a reload of Window Eyes usually does not work. I can press ALT, CTRL and W, and Nothing happens. So, is there a 9.2 update coming any time soon? I use the web almost every day, and I keep needing to use my old XP system with 8.4.
