Quit complaining and give Jaws a try or don't. If you don't like how a screen
reader is made write one yourself. I think you will quickly see the challenges
the devs have. How about a little thanks to
Doug and the rest of the Staff and to VFO for giving us this offer that they
didn't have to do!!!

I don't like that either if this what does happen. I use outlook 2013 at work
part of office 365 and at home I still use Eudora 7.1.9 for my client e-mail
and I have also outlook set up as I have also office 365 at home. Don't you
feel that screne readers should be made as simple as possible?

I just wished all of the graphics were labeled in the windows live mail app.
When I arrow up and down in the windows live maill app in jaws, it won’t say
things like, replied, forwarded, read etc. It does in window eyes.

Hi,
It really depends on what you want to do. NVDA is vastly better on the web
than JAWS and I believe always will be. But not configurable enough.
All the best
Steve

Got news for one or two user won't make a difference. You get what you pay for
or don't pay for. NVDA is nowhere as good as Jaws!

If you really want to send a message to VFO, either use narrator, Supernova, or
donate to NVDA!

Hi Doug,
Is there any chance another company could buy window-eyes and keep it
developing in to the great screen reader it is now?
What a crying shame we blind screen reader folks only have one choice here in
the U.S. for screen readers!!
So I am again looking at Dolphin screen reader, since I use to have it back
with version 3.5 and also learning better how to use NVDA, though NVDA has a
good way to go to equal Window-eyes!

Window-Eyes will continue to run as it always has. Even if you migrate you can
continue to have Window-Eyes installed and switch back and forth as you need
to. The only thing with Window-Eyes is it will no longer be upgraded.
So 9.5.4 is the last version.
Regards,
Doug

Need clarity on one thing. As an current paid user of WE, if we convert to
JAWS, does that mean we no longer can use WE?

Thank you for being a valued member of the GW Micro and Window-Eyes family.
We regret to announce that sales of Window-Eyes have ended in the United States
and Canada. Users outside of the United States and Canada should contact their
local distributor for options. We are committed to our customers and will honor
existing product purchases and software maintenance agreements, and we will
continue to provide technical support to end users that have purchased
Window-Eyes or a support package.
All users who are currently using Window-Eyes can continue to use the software
indefinitely; however, as the Windows(r) operating system and/or applications
change over time, Window-Eyes may not function adequately for your needs.
We understand how important a screen reader is to you and are offering
JAWS(r) for Windows 18 as a replacement. We are committed to providing a smooth
transition and will honor existing Window-Eyes product purchases and software
maintenance agreements (SMA), as follows.
End users that paid for and are current with Window-Eyes 9.x will be converted
to JAWS 18 at no charge.
If you are using an earlier version of Window-Eyes, you can purchase an upgrade
to JAWS 18.
If you are using the free version of Window-Eyes you can continue to use it.
While there is not an upgrade path from the free version, if you are interested
in purchasing JAWS, please contact our sales team at 800-444-4443.
Existing Window-Eyes SMAs will be rolled into the JAWS SMA program for end
users that migrate to JAWS.
Learn more about the migration options and pricing by visiting
http://www.gwmicro.com/window-eyes/migrate.
To make this process as easy as possible, we ask you to complete a simple web
form that will go directly to our sales team, who will then contact you with an
authorization code for JAWS 18, or request additional information if necessary.
Requests for upgrades must be submitted at
http://www.gwmicro.com/window-eyes/migrateform or by phone at 800-444-4443 by
July 31, 2017.
Note, the free Window-Eyes Offer for Users of Microsoft Office version is not
part of the conversion program.
If you have any questions please call us at 800-444-4443 or email us at
mailto:[email protected].
