Hi all, please accept my apologies for the duplicate posts, however I feel that the more people that get the below instructions, the better. So here we go. Hi all, do the following two things to make Avast more accessible. Configuring Avast to not use the skins for the simple user interface: 1. Start Avast. 2. Wait for the memory test to be completed, then close the web page that appears. You should now land on a dummy check box. 3. Press the applications key to open a context menu, down arrow to settings and press enter. The Programme Settings dialogue box appears, with the categories tree gaining focus. 4. Tab until you hear, "enable skins for simple user interface check box checked". Press space to uncheck it. 5. Tab to ok and press enter. You'll land back on the dummy check box. 6. Close and restart Avast. You should now be able to tab through the controls in this programme. Configuring JAWS to read lists in Avast: 1. Make sure that you're focused on the Avast Simple User Interface. 2. Press JAWS key 6 to open Configuration Manager. 3. Press enter to accept the New Configuration File dialogue box. 4. Press alt s to open the set options menu, then press a. The advanced Options dialogue box appears. 5. Shift tab till you hear, "Rely on MSAA for List Views check box not checked". Press space to check it. 6. Press enter to activate the ok button. 7. Either press control s to save your configuration file immediately, or press alt F4, pressing enter to activate the yes button on the confirm dialogue box. By doing these steps, you'll resolve an issue on some machines whereby JAWS stops speaking when focused on any of the lists in Avast. I hope this helps.
