Thanks for the reminder, and, since moving to my new Windows 10 machine, forgot to put this shortcut on my desktop. smile

"C:\Program Files (x86)\GW Micro\Window-Eyes\wineyes.exe" /k this will shut down w e completely most of the time. then you can reload with the regular hot keys. -----Original Message----- From: Butch K via Talk Sent: Monday, September 14, 2015 6:32 AM To: [email protected] Subject: stability versus new browse mode Hello, I had been using a windows 7 laptop running wineyes 7.5, and it was fairly stable. When I finally upgraded to wineyes 9.1, the new browse mode could not perform the same tasks as the earlier version of wineyes. It kept freezing up while I was on the web doing the same tasks as I had done while running wineyes 7.5. Pressing control, alt, W did nothing. I had to do a cold boot everytime. After using 9.1 for a couple of weeks, I had to uninstall it and go back to an earlier version. This time I installed 8.4, and it works as well as when I was running wineyes 7.5. So, to get the benefits of the new browse mode, I would have to sacrifice stability. For me, wineyes 9 was a waste of money. I can't even use it. I mean what good is a silent screen reader. I have been using wineyes since the 1990's, and I have never been this disappointed. The new browse mode is so dysfunctional that it should be in beta.
