Control-Shift-M is working fine here on Windows 7/64 in Explorer.
Make sure the current user window hasn't somehow gotten corrupted. It's
coordinates should be 0 for all four settings.
Also check the highlight settings in the properties of the currently
active window.
If that doesn't work, make sure General, Highlight, Highlight track and
Highlighted text are set to auto.
And finally, if that doesn't work you can try manually setting the
highlight color. You'd first have to define the Set highlight color hot
key under Hot keys, Miscellaneous.
Then put the mouse pointer on the highlighted text and hit that hot key,
and save the set file.

Tom,
I believe it has always been this way...just use the speak summary
hotkey control-shift-s and you'll get what you are wanting.

I am using Window-Eyes 8 beta, Windows 7 64-bit. When I am in Windows
Explorer and press Control-Shift-M, I hear the message, “no text
selected,” when I know my cursor is on a file name. I can tell that 1
file is selected when I read the screen with the mouse and reach the
line that says “1 item selected.” If I press Shift-Down Arrow twice,
the line that the mouse is on will tell me three items are selected.
However pressing Control-Shift-M will still say “No text selected.” I
don’t think this is a problem with the beta because it started while I
was still using 7.5.4.1 However, since the beta didn’t change this, I
would like suggestions for fixing it. Thanks.
