I updated the default factory setting and that took care of the problem.

I have the same problem with file edit boxes not speaking in Window Eyes most of the time. I'm using default.set and it happens whether I'm in file explorer or on the desktop trying to change the name of a file. Both NVDA and narrator work every time. I shouldn't have to change to another screen reader to change a file name!

Hello Rod and everyone else,

Thank you all for the warm welcome and the tips and offers of help that I have already received. I as well received Window Eyes through the Office offer, and was happy to get it. I really know nothing but Jaws at this time, but I plan on changing this over the next few weeks or months, whatever it takes. I am sure that I will have many questions, and again, hope to start to contribute back to the group very soon. I live near New Orleans, though am a native Texan, I have been down here in Cajun Country for about 25 years, so it is home now. If you like seafood and a good time, consider coming down sometime. Thanks again for the welcome.

Mike

Hi Carol,

You might ask your friend which set file is associated with the file list.
Mine is default.set and tracks properly.

Hth,

Rod

Subject: edit box not speaking

My friend is using a desktop PC with WE, suddenly, when trying to edit the
name of a file using F2, the contents will only speak if she presses the
down arrow. She can't arrow through the title to make changes or use the backspace to tell what has been done. Pressing backspace, though, does erase
the appropriate number of characters.  The edit box has already been
maximized.  Thanks.

Carol
