The start button area. After pressing either the windows key or pressing enter on the start button. You will be in the search edit box, just start typing what you are looking for as normal. Tab one time from the search edit box to, the navigation menu list. Here you have in a list, navigation menu, your account, shortcuts for, documents, downloads, personal folder, and the power button. Tab a second time to, Apps view. Here you have a complete list of all the apps and programs on your computer. You can use first letter navigation, as long as you have a app or program starting with that letter. For example, if you press a C: and you do not have any apps or programs starting with a C: nothing will happen, you will stay where you are at. But for example, if you press a J:, you will jump down to Jaws. Using the applications key and its menus are the same as they were before in the start area. Making desktop shortcuts for all your apps and programs are done the same way, pinning apps or programs to the taskbar, and start area live tiles, are done the same way as they were before. Now tabbing a third time from the search edit box, you will be in a list of your live tiles. Depending on how you have them set up, they will be either in a straight list like mine are, or from the group heading of one you will press the right arrow key to move to the next heading of another group. Now if you tab again, you will wrap back around to the search edit box. Using the settings area. After pressing Windows key+I, for the settings area. You will now land in the search edit box, just tab one time to the 9 main categories, as you are used to seeing. After pressing enter on any main category, just tab one time to the list of sub-categories under the main category. Remember the first sub-category is already highlighted for you, you can begin tabbing across. While in the settings area, you need to use the Insert key+Tab, to make Jaws, say what control you are sitting on, and tell you, what that control is set to. There are many new sub-categories, in the new anniversary update to W-10, for you to learn. The notification center has been changed to the action center. So when you press Windows key+A, you will either land on, notifications, you can just down arrow to read them, you can tab to the dismiss this notification, press the spacebar. Or you will land on, collapse quick actions, just tab one time to the first quick action, and just press the right arrow key to go across all the quick actions you have pinned to the action center. The task manager works just fine. You will need to turn off most background apps, most are on by default. You will need to uninstall some apps if you wish in the apps list in the start area. Using Narrator. Narrator works and responds much better. I changed the voice of narrator to the David desktop voice, very deep, good for my bad hearing. Most everything else, is about the same in the anniversary update to W-10 as it previously was. If anyone has any questions, do not hesitate to ask them, we will do our best, to answer them.
