Hi all. I find this discussion disturbing, and wonder if we are dealing with some machine specific behaviours.
I've listened to two podcasts regarding Windows 10. The Main Menu episode featuring Narrator's improvements did not discuss possible installation of 10 issues. Neither did Jonathan Mosen's "Blind Side" of yesterday, featuring Geoff Bishop, raise the sorts of problems this list is talking about. I do agree that it looks as if Microsoft is being incredibly sloppy. Unless I've missed something, I have not seen in the supplied documentation for Window-Eyes 9.5 any mention of update issues. I most certainly recall screen reader companies going to great lengths to describe the need for removal of screen readers and their drivers when 10 came out last year. Just hope my update works as I expect it to! Vaughan. Please telephone the Regional Disability and Health Team prior to emailing or faxing any new referrals.

MicroSoft is sloppy too since someone should have known about this, in fact staff at both VFO / AI-Squared should have known that windows' 7 updater as such from last year were using a version of the video drivers that, though they work fine with the earlier version of windows ten from last November, will not allow the install of the anniversary update. ----- Curtis Delzer, HS.
