Bill and others,

I apologize, there was a problem with the full Window-Eyes 9.0 Offer for users of Microsoft Office installer when installed on a 64-bit machine. The Window-Eyes 9.0 upgrade did not have this problem nor did any of the non offer for users of Microsoft Office. This has since been resolved. If you have the bad install you have two choices.

1) Simply go to the Window-Eyes help menu and select the "check for updates" option and click the "Download Window-Eyes 9.0.0.0" link. The 9.0 upgrade can be installed on the existing 9.0 install and it will resolve the problem.

or

2) Uninstall the existing 9.0 Offer for users of Microsoft Office, download the installer again from http://www.windoweyesforoffice.com and re-install.

I apologize for the problem but once we were able to duplicate the problem we resolved it immediately.

But I want to be clear, this ONLY affected the full 9.0 installer that was downloaded from www.windoweyesforoffice.com when installed on a 64-bit version of Windows. The 9.0 upgrade has no problem and the full (non offer for users of Microsoft Office) does NOT have any install problem. The issue has been resolved and 2 solutions have been provided above.

Regards,
Doug

Hi Joseph,

Thanks for the explanation. It scares me a bit not knowing what else isn’t right about the Office install.

Hi Bill:

I too have experienced what you are talking about.

I have reported it on this list.

Appears to be an error in the WE 9.0 installer for the office version.

This does not happen with the evaluation, nor does it happen if I upgrade to 9.0 from the WEforOffice 8.4 install. It only happens when doing a fresh install with the WEforOffice installer for version 9.0.

Hopefully, they’ll sort this out.

If you have never used the evaluation, you can download the Window-Eyes demo and use it for 60 days. You won’t see this issue with the Window-Eyes evaluation demo.

Hope this helps.

I couldn’t buy the new Window-Eyes 9, but I do have a copy of Office 2010, so I downloaded from the Window-Eyes for Office site. Now instead of saying desktop, Window-Eyes says program manager, and instead of saying start button it says start button button start. I didn’t change any settings between beta 9.3 and version 9. Is anyone else experiencing these things?

Bill
