I couldn't have said it better myself.
Stay well,
Larry

Hi, Yep! I’m angry about it too. Jaws just doesn’t work nearly as seamlessly as
WE did. And, FS sucks.

No doubt about that, but some of us would like to be able to squeeze
the very life out of it while there is still time.
As I said before in a post of over a week or so ago, I was planning to
purchase the annual license the very day the free version of JAWS was
announced, or it would be more accurate to say, the day I was made aware
of it, so don't plan to use WE forever. But, what a great screen reader
to lose, especially to such a company as Freedom Scientific. I'm still
very angry about that.
Enough said.

I, Window eyes is almost un-useable now with all the updates. Soon in a windows
update IE will be removed altogether which at that time will just about finish

Mike, On that, I have no answer. I guess my question would have to be,
are you having any similar difficulties with JAWS lately? If not, I
think that maybe there might possibly be an updated version of the
common file. But, you must remember, I am still mystified by the little
miracle, you might say.
I really would suggest installing the latest version of JAWS, but make
sure you sign up for the free trial, and try to install it entirely
separately from the version presently on your system.
Again, I am still somewhat in the dark as to why it worked, I only know
it did <smile>.

Hello Larry
Thanks for replying. I've got Jaws 2018 installed on the machine.
Does it matter which version of jaws I have? Perhaps I needa newer
version.
Best wishes
Mike.

Mike,
You might not believe the answer I am prepared to give you, but you
might want to just give this a shot.
To begin with I feel pretty sure that I might have posted about
this over the past couple of months, but I really can't be entirely
sure how often.
What you might try, sign up for and download and install the free
offer from Freedom Scientific for JAWS which will last through June
30th. The reason, while I was wrestling with the same issues, I could
find no solution no matter what I tried. Settings were of no use.
But, after installing JAWS, WE and all of its features once again
came alive.
A pretty drastic step I know, but it might be the solution.
Apparently there is a common file used by all screen reading programs
that use browse mode. I don't know if it is missing, or if it might
have become corrupted, but that is the only reason I can come up with
for this working as well as it did.
Anyway, think about it, and maybe give it a try.
HTH,
Larry

Hello Everyone
I am having problems with Window-eyes on my laptop. This was a new
machine last August and it is running Windows 10 Home 64.
I am using We 9.5.4.0. with internet explorer 11 many of the keys
to move are not working. E.g F to jump to edit fields, l for links,
C to jump to combo boxes. This is making it extremely tedious to
find things. Also I am not hearing anything as I type into edit
boxes. I have tried removing We and reinstalling but get the same
result. My other machines are both working normally.
Any suggestions would be appreciated
Mike
