With Window-Eyes you can use Firefox up through version 55.03, but not 56.0.
NVDA and JAWS should work fine with these newer Firefox versions.
I don't know whether it would be productive to put a bug report into the
Firefox bug reporting system about Window-Eyes support or not.

You can tell it not to update. I think if the new versions of Firefox isn't
working with Window-Eyes, it is a clear sign that Window-eyes is failing
with the new updates. I use JAWS and NVDA and both work fine with the new
updates because both of these products are being updated.

This is not good. I still use window-eyes and fire fox. Wonder if I can
tell it not to update?

Version 56 has come out in the last few days. VFO said in their release

I thought I had been successfully running version 56 on a couple of other
computers, but now I'm not quite so sure. Tonight I updated my Windows 7
laptop to version 56. At first, no SET file was being loaded; Window-Eyes
didn't seem to recognize the correct file association for Firefox. Then,
reading in the Control Panel and back out to Firefox, it began to
associate
with Firefox.set. But this didn't seem to help. I can still read the items
in
the tab order if MSAA mode is off, but this isn't helpful in reading the
full
contents of a page. More investigation is called for, but this may be an
early warning sign of the lack of support for Window-Eyes. I'm not giving
up
yet, but passing along my findings.

Hi, any Window-Eyes Users Still Out There. I just updated Firefox, and
when I try to navigate with MSAA mode on, I just get a ding where before
I could go up and down the page. How can I change it so it works? What
happened?--Matthew Chao.
