Interesting. It's usually a shutdown and restart of WE that seems to
trigger it for me. <smile>

I am seeing this randomly on a 64 bit machine running Win7 Pro. I am
not sure how to trigger the problem, but usually a shut down/restart of
WE resolves it.

Unfortunately it's happening here as well on my XP pro machine. I know
the desktop items are on the screen because the mouse keys find them.
The desktop won't speak and will actually say "no selected item." I hit
the letters mo and pressed enter to see if Mozilla Firefox came up and
it did. So the computer has the desktop but WE isn't speaking it when
in this state. It seems to be something with Windows Explorer because
other Explorer windows exhibit the same lack of speech. I have sent a
WE Diag report to GW when WE is in this state. Logging off has helped
but it seems that a total reboot works better. Of course it's possible
that this 3 year old machine has something to do ith the problem but
it's still frustrating when restarts are necessary instead of restarting
WE. If I want to put off the total reboot I'll close WE and run NVDA
which will still read the desktop.

Hi, guys. I haven’t been following the messages on this list, so
don’t know if this has been reported, but the problem of the desktop
not reading if you exit and restart WE has seemed to reappear with
this latest version of WE. I’ve only had to exit and restart once,
so don’t know if this will keep happening, but I had to restart to
be able to read the desktop again.
