Hi Loy,
This is a known issue to Microsoft.
Here is a copy of my email 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
