Hello listers,
I will begin by stating that I am using Window-Eyes 9.5.4.0.
I sure hope that there are enough people with the expertise left on this
list that might be prepared to help me with a rather vexing issue.
To name the issue first. I can no longer get WE to take any input from
the keyboard, at least as it relates to using browse mode. I can no
longer move from header to header for example, or for that matter, even
set bookmarks. I mean, WE has just gone nearly completely dead when
using IE11. But now for the rest of the story.
I recently experienced an computer access issue after updating my HP
Pavilion computer through the Support Assist feature. My theory on that
is that the newer BIOS was not compatible with Windows 10, as strange as
that might sound. This apparently been an issue among HP users, and
especially Pavilion users. These desktop computers use an AMD CPU, and
the thinking is that AMD and MS aren't communicating with each other
very well lately. Anyway, I plan to call my Geek Squad people back today
to see if they can't clarify just what might have happened. As it is,
The Geeks left me with an 1803 build, Where as before I was up to 1903,
but at this point, I don't dare to update to 1909 fearing that the same
issue might arise.
Now back to WE. I have reinstalled, and fiddled around with things in
the control panel, but to no avail.
The thing is, it works with both Chromium Edge (latest stable build) as
well as Thunderbird, as both will allow the use of WE in browse mode,
but not IE.
If someone could please give me any pointers, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Oh yes, as a post script, IE is still important to me because apparently
Edge is still not able to work with DAISY text books from Bookshare.
I have to say that this thing really kinda creeps me out. IE is
practically a dead zone.
OK, Enough of the drama, any help again would really be appreciated.
Larry
