Um ok I will test this out with my windows 10 preview I just installed and see what happens. Remember though that this is preview not even beta software so you should exspect to incounter problems and bugs.

Here is a copy of my feedback 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.
