Hi Chip, Yeah, I thought about that too, but perhaps somethings can be updated automatically without loosing the user's preferences.

I think that's a good suggestion (to automatically at least notify you that a .set file is out of date, if not allow you to have it automatically updated). The reason it isn't just "done" is that someone might have spent a lot of time modifying the settings (say for Word), so that very specific items are read, and others aren't. Maybe they defined a lot of hotkeys as having a "program" scope, then changed them to be something else so they don't conflict with something in Word. If so, all of this is lost when the later .set file is updated (replaced) on top of the out of date one; not to mention the issue of defined graphics, colors, exceptions, etc. They all could be lost, and people might not be happy. So, perhaps just notifying you is the best that can be done. Chip -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Peter Duran via Talk Sent: Saturday, August 01, 2015 4:44 PM To: Talk Subject: WE 9.2 and Factory Settings Hello I reported that, after the installation of WE 9.2, Word 2010 began to act crazily. For instance, paragraph styles were spoken at odd times, before reading a paragraph (as usual) or after reading a paragraph, or not at all. It took me several days to track down the cause of this anomaly. Finally, I went, for lack of other options, to the Factory Settings list under the File menu of Window-Eyes. I was told that the factory settings for Word 2010, Window-Eyes Global UI, and so on, were out of date. I install the latest factory settings for those programs I frequently use. My problems with Word 2010 went away, and Word 2010 behaved as before and even better in many ways. Question: Why didn't the WE Installer install the latest factory settings automatically?
