Hi listers:
Just a message to describe one use I found for the Virtual View app. I like to tinker with different configurations, but, don't want to re-install Windows or the like just to try something different. So, I decided to use virtual machines instead. I use VMWare Workstation Player to install the OS, since there is an easy-install option to take much of the work of installing out of the prodcess. However, this wasn't an option for Windows 10, at least, not yet. This meant I had to basically boot up the machine as if I were installing a new Operating System on it. Since this is difficult without sighted assistance, I had avoided it. Suddenly, it hit me. Virtual View can do an OCR of the screen! So, I booted up, using the iso of Windows 10 created from the Media Creation Tool. The system went into Windows setup, and started asking me the questions needed for installation. Most of this can be done simply by pressing Enter, with a few exceptions. The Virtual View app was able to ocr the setup screens, and, from previous experience, and, a little guesswork, I was able to successfully install Windows 10, up to the point where Narrator could take over. Great job on the Virtual View app! Thanks very much! _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
