Hi to all,
Here is my copy of the feedback on Windows 10 that I sent to
Microsoft:Both Screen readers, Windows Eyes and Narrator, do not read
the screen with mouse. Pressing window key I can arrow through the
choices and the screen reader does verbalize the choices, but if I type
anything, now arrowing does not verbalize the choices. Windows 10 is
totally unusable for a blind user.
Many times a window pops up and all I hear when I tab is link link
cancel, but what the link does is a total mystery.
In windows 7 when I encounter this problem, I can route the mouse to the
link and the screen reader can read what is above or below the link to
determine what the link is going to do; however, reading the screen with
the mouse is not available in Windows 10. This is unacceptable.
Another issue, if I have several windows open, holding down the alt key
and tabbing through the open windows gives no announcement as to which
windows are open. Whereas, in windows 7, I hear thunderbird, firefox,
skype, etc. when tabbing around.
I hope these issues will be corrected. Many thanks, Manny
