you have to go through the narrator preferences and tell it to speak dialog
boxes and pop up balloons etc.
there are options in there for the voices, speech output, typed characters,
mouse tracking etc.
***
you need windows 9.2 full installation or higher on windows 10. 9.5.1 is the
latest.
i had to email [email protected] and give them my serial number to get a
link to download a full installation file to use with windows 10.
***
you can turn off the computer log in
open a run box and type in control userpasswords2 and follow the instructions
uncheck allways log on on startup. but if the log on password was the password
for the microsoft account none of the microsoft services will be logged in
either.
like microsoft email,one drive, ms office etc. you would have to manually log
on to each of them manually.
i don't use any of the microsoft services.
including cortana. which watches everything you do on the computer.
so i changed to a local account and turned off most all of the privacy
settings. all options are on by default. to send out most all of your
information about you and your computer. . i don't have to log on to microsoft
at all unless i want to send them feedback.

Subject: getting my new PC set up
I started up my new Windows 10 laptop last night for the first time. I have
a couple questions, more out of curiosity, since I was able to get my
sighted husband to read the screen to me.
* When I started the PC, it ran through a set of questions to set up
the PC. Should I have been able to use Narrator to read these had my
husband not been there?
* Once I got the Win 10 desktop, I launched Narrator. Seems like it
took a few tries with Windows N, but it did start. That helped me navigate
the menus, but if I get a dialog box, such as an installation dialog, I
cannot figure out how to get Narrator to read the whole dialog so I know
what the buttons mean. Any idea? I need to get Outlook set up so that I
can get my email from AI Squared with the link to the latest WE version.
Turns out the most recent Window Eyes disk I have is 9.0 and I'm getting an
error when I try to load it, so it must not be compatible with my Windows
10. I'm in a bit of a snag here with not having a Window Eyes CD.
* During the set up process, I was asked for my Microsoft account
information. Since I have an MSN email address, I tried that information
and it worked. I guess that's fine. I figure it's nice to have a password
aligned between email, the store and the cloud storage, should I use it.
But my normally don't put a password on my laptop because it doesn't leave
the house. Should I be able to go into Win 10 settings somewhere and turn
this off or change the password to something easier just for logging into my
computer? I want a strong password for my email, but not for logging into
Windows at home. I like to be able to flip my computer on and either have
it go straight to the desktop or quickly move back the log in screen.
Now here's hoping all goes smoothly with learning Windows 10 and getting my
desktop set up.
