Hi and Thanks Guys: OK, read Marks tutorial on getting Windows 10 with WE 9.2. He glosses over getting and configuring the Installer. I am getting the pop up window with a button to install Windows 10 and have the reserve your copy of windows 10 or whatever the button is in the system tray. Do I need my computer name or other credentials other than my logon password that I currently enter on the login screen every time I boot up the computer? How do I ensure the most recent version, build, of windows 10 will be downloaded and installed? During configuration of the installer what types of things will I need to do and what information will I need to have on hand if any to configure the installer? I will have to put anything I need on a tape recorder if numbers or passwords etc... He also mentions when the system starts he did something, hit enter, to close the windows loc screen so the enter user password screen comes up. What is this all about since I don't get it when I boot up in windows 9.2 and we 8.1? Will it continue to be in the logon process every time I boot or ReBoot the new system? He also did not address Eloquence, in the past WE required jumping through some hoops to get the files back but according to Microsoft all files should be left intact after the upgrade so has WE fixed that problem? I guess that's about all I need to make some type of plan. My external disk is too small to do a image copy of my current c drive so that option is out but I have my major projects backed up on it so they should be safe. Anyone done anything else to ensure success? I think I will wait for some sighted help before I try this puppy but will do it myself while they watch what is going on just for a added level of safety. Later and thanks for any pointers guys, sigh, why is everything such a hassle in life these days. What ever happened to just push the button and get the job done and done right for simple minded folks like me?

Hi Rick, Here's an AI Squared knowledge base article all about it: http://www.gwmicro.com/Support/Knowledge_Base/?kbnumber=GWKB2066 hth, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+rod_hutton=hotmail....@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Rick Thomas via Talk Sent: November 24, 2015 6:52 AM To: 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Subject: Windows 10 Upgrade Process Hi: I might upgrade to Windows 10 pretty soon. What is the Process and what accessibility issues might I encounter? Are my drivers left in place? Do I have to jump through hoops to get my paid version of Eloquence back - will it be removed? Do I have to ReSetup the Desktop Icons and Task Bar pinned items? What about Internet Explorer and my Office 365 Outlook and Word, office, settings and features? Are people still having problems with accessibility during installation using, I guess, narrator? Do I have to ReDownload and Install Windoweyes for Office? Does the online download and installer work and is it completely accessible? Anything else I am forgetting to ask about before setting up a plan and obtaining whatever information I will need to get back up and running? Any particular better way than clicking on the get windows 10 button in the notification task bar to download and install windows 10 when it comes to accessibility or implementation? Any suggested way to go back to my current Windows 8.1 if the install fails?
