Hello Tom,
Thanks for trying to help. I am facing two problems now.
1. I tried your suggestions but, unfortunately, I couldn't make any changes.
The check boxes remain checked and the unchecked boxes remain unchecked.
2. I am not quite sure exactly what I should uncheck to get rid of the
extraneous info. When I cursor up or down in my list view (which I like) I
hear things like "Group" or "a-h_ or "i-p". What is it that I should try to
uncheck?
Hope you have some other ideas for me to try. Thanks for being so patient.

Remember, if you press Alt_V and arrow down the list, you will be told which
item is checked. You must press the Enter key to check an item, and only one
item can be checked at a time. If you press O, only one of these items can
be checked at once, and you must press the Enter key to do so. If you press
Alt+V and then H, you can choose the details you wish displayed by arrowing
down the list and pressing the Spacebar to check as many as you like then
tab to the OK button and press Enter. I just remembered that one may be able
to make some adjustments on what is announced on the screen with the Windows
Enhanced app of Window-Eyes. I haven't done this for a while, so I'm not
sure how much it can help, but I believe it did help me.

Hello List,
Thanks to all of you who have tried to help me. I got sighted help and
managed to sort out most of my problems. I no longer get unnecessary date
announcements. However, when I cursor around in the folder, I still get
announcements of group headings and I can find no way to silence them. When
I do alt-v+o I find I can't check or uncheck any of the items there. Anymore
suggestions, please?

Try hitting Alt-V and then the letter O. You should be able to make
additional changes there. I do this for Windows 7.

Hello,
Thanks for your reply. I had already tried to do what you suggested but I
found that I couldn't check or uncheck any of the menu items. By the way,
the "None" item was already checked as well as the "Date Created" and the
"Date modified" but I couldn't make any changes. Any other suggestions,
please.

Hi, Peter.
It sounds like your user folders are grouped by date. While in that folder
view, press Alt-V for view and down arrow to the group by menu option. Press
enter and a sub menu should open, giving you options like name, date, size,
and maybe some other options. I'll bet the date option is checked. All you
have to do is keep down arrowing to the none option and press Enter.
That should straighten things out.
Lou N.

Layout
Hello List,
I tried to send this message to the list but it didn't appear to have
reached it so I am sending it again.
I would like some help from anyone who is still using Windows 8.1 and
Window-Eyes.
I was fooling around in one of my folders in my User folder and somehow I
changed the way the subfolders are readout by my Window-Eyes 9.5.4. I have
managed to get the supfolders back into list view as I like it but now
Window-Eyes reads extraneous info such as "earlier this year" or "Last
week". How do I stop W-E from reading that info?
I am using Windows 8.1 with the free version of W-E.
Help would be much appreciated.
