My brother, who is not on the list, has a strange situation. It
involves the routing mouse to the cursor. His system is a Dell 64-bit
desktop with a USB connected keyboard. He is running IE11 and has
installed the beta.
When he gets to the place on the screen where he needs to be, he uses
the insert-plus key to move the mouse pointer to his location. The
reason for this is that there is a button which is not accessible to the
cursor and it is necessary to route the mouse and move by pixels to get
to the button so he can click it. When he presses insert-plus, instead
of routing pointer to element or row or cursor, or which ever WE says at
a particular time, his says routing focus to pointer. On checking the
coordinates, the pointer is now sitting at x9, y9. This is a page he
has been using for about six months with the same computer and he has
always been able to take care of clicking the button. Also, when he did
move the mouse pointer by increments, his moved by ten pixels instead of
five, or moved none at all.
For whatever reason, he decided to use insert-s to reach the system tray
and he got the speak all toggle (insert-a) prompt. I told him that he
must have pressed insert-a by mistake, so he did it again and got the
same result. I suggested that he might want to reinstall 8.4 and try
reinstalling the beta, should he choose to. If anyone has any idea why
this is happening, I would be glad to pass along any helpful
information. Thank you.
