When you cannot read what you have written in an
application such as your email client, does
pressing insert-backslash to re-draw the screen or maximizing your window help?

Hi Brandon, Thanks for your detailed post. I am
using Windows 7 and I have encountered all of
WE9.3 problems that you outlined. I am
writing this email in notepad because trying to
move around in Thunderbird would only give me a
bing sound. When closing programs like Firefox
and Chrome, WE9.3 crashes and generates an error
report, which I fill out with as much detail as
possible. One day in about 2 hours, I sent 4
error reports. I strongly suggested everyone
encountering these problems to post so that the
magnitude of these problems will be revealed.
Many thanks, Manny Good Luck, Manny please help

1511, OS build 10586.71. I'm also using
Window-eyes 9.3.1. I am currently doing my best
to contend with annoyances such as: >> 1. When
I press alt+F4 to close apps, Wineyes frequently
says nothing at all. If I want to confirm that
anything has taken place at all, I often have to
press the Wineyes read title bar command,
Ctrl+shift+T. >> 2. I'm a Microsoft certified
systems engineer, so I frequently go in and
delete a whole batch of files from places like
the temp, %temp%, and prefetch folders to not
only free up disk space, but to also maintain
high overall system stability and
responsiveness. Often times in Windows 10
however, just as above I am almost always
greeted by nothing except total silence from
Wineyes about halfway through this seemingly
simple operation. Because of my educational
background, and the level of familiarity that I
have regarding internal/background Windows
processes, services and structures, I've been
able to deduce that as a blind person using
Window-eyes, you've usually got to alt+tab
around to find the screen where you have to use
the Wineyes mouse reading commands to click on
the "Continue with automatic administrator
rights" button, and in the same screen I also
have to use the Wineyes mouse reading keys since
I tend to put a check in the checkbox that says,
"Do this for all items". >> 3. If you access
the start button and select settings, although
the screens within are mostly accessible, the
mouse reading commands can get tripped up and
are read out by Wineyes in either a nonsensical,
or undesirable way. To experience for yourself
what I'm talking about, do the following: >>
A. Access the start menu. >> B. Press up arrow
until you get to settings. Press enter on
settings. >> C. Press right arrow once to move
the cursor, and subsequently the focus to, the
devices category and press enter. >> D. At this
point, the category that should be automatically
selected for you by default will more than
likely be printers and scanners. That's fine. >>
E. Now press tab four times, and you should
arrive at some kind of checkbox regarding
metered internet connections. >> Wineyes doesn't
read that checkbox properly when tabbing through
the screen, and I can't get the mouse reading
keys to get to that checkbox either! I am able
to get the Wineyes mouse reading keys to let me
access the first checkbox of this screen, so I
know that it for example says, "Let Windows
manage my default printer". The second checkbox
on this screen however, is not reading properly
at all. >> 4. Last but not least, Window-eyes
is giving me all kinds of problems when trying
to do something as simple as write an email with
Thunderbird! I'll be in the middle of composing
a simple, old fashioned, plane text email, when
suddenly and without any kind of warning,
Window-eyes'll just start announcing my title
bar as untitled, and not read anything in either
the subject, or body fields of the message. I
ensure that the window is maximized, makes no
difference. I press Ctrl+alt+W to relaunch
Window-eyes, which sometimes does, and sometimes
doesn't make any difference. I've tried
uninstalling the TB Enhance app, thinking that
it might not have exactly kept pace with
Mozilla's Thunderbird development team, but
doing so also unfortunately made no discernible
difference. I've had to re-launch Window-eyes
literally no less than four times while
composing this message alone! >> What's up with
all these little annoying problems I'm
experiencing with regard to Windows 10 and
Window-eyes 9.3.1? Is anybody else contending
with stuff like this? >> >> P.S What the H e
double hockysticks! Now the Read To Me app isn't
working in Thunderbird either! Before you ask,
yes, I guarantee you I've set it up correctly, I
would know since I've used it successfully
before on this PC in both Firefox 43, and
Internet Explorer 11. Right now though,
Ctrl+shift+r at the top of the message? Nothing.
Ctrl+shift+r in the middle of the message? Nada.
Ctrl+shift+r in the middle of a line in the
middle of the message? Zilch. Zippo. Grrrrr! Ai
Squared, what gives! >> >> Disclaimer: Be

Agency or GCHQ. >> I neither condone, or
