Rick,

I'm not sure exactly where you're referring to. Within the "This PC" window on Windows 10 I can spell everything by routing the mouse to it and hitting the current clip hot key once to read it, twice to spell it, and a third time to spell it phonetically. But there are no paths in that window. F2 works on any file in Explorer. And Alt-D puts you in the address bar and the full path is already highlighted. So you can just copy it or read it. F6 returns you to the main window.

Hi: Using f2 I can read the Desktop items one character at a time to look

In the "This Computer" list of operating system files and folders hitting f2
does seemingly nothing so I cant look for capitals in system files and
folders.
How do I read the list of entries, a selected entry, one character at a
time?
I often need to build file paths to a particular file or folder, the path to
it is in the properties window for the item, window eyes only reads the
information in this operating system using the mouse, but it is so far
doable.
So why doesn't f2 work and how do I read a list item to look for capitals in
the name?
I run Windows 8.1 and WE 9.2.
