Hi Rick,
Since you are using the latest Windows there may not be much to do, but
I do not even use Windoweyes 9 but since you are using the latest Windows,
you may have to.
But, having said that, even when using Windoweyes 8.4 my Windows 7
notebook was slow as well. So, I adjusted the voice rate to get it to work
more normal. That may be what you have to do, but the Explorer feature is
very slow now and who is at fault on that, there may be issues in Windoweyes
as you elude to below.
Try increasing the voice rate to see if that at least helps.

Subject: Tracking WindowEyes Script Execution
Hi: First hope this is the current encarnation of the list.
Is there some way to track what scripts are getting action requests?
WindowEyes slowdowns and hangups are getting painful so I am looking for
some way to isolate what might be causing them.
If I can print a timestamp whenever a WindowEyes script is getting control
of any sort, messages or whatever else might be occuring during the
slowdowns it may help to determine if a given script is involved in the
problem.
Things like unresolved message processing, call outs to the internet,
lengthly loops, recursive processing errors due to concurrent message
processing and delays and allot of other things could be behind these
slowdowns and hangups but how can we identify if any individual script is
involved in the problem?
I am thinking that when a slowdown starts but before a lockup I might be
able to somehow track what is going on and especially with the WindowEyes
scripts to help narrow the analysis.
If I had access to all the scripts code I might be able to tweak them
somehow but this seems a whole lot of work indeed and I don't think all
their scripts come with the source code - not sure since you know how fond I
am of scripting in vbs anyway.
But I am getting genually annoyed at slowdowns and lockups so am trying to
find out what exactly is causing them since AI Squared doesn't seem to have
a clue or they would have fixed the problem.
The problem might be a WindowWEyes script, the WindowEyes base code base, an
operating system problem (windows 8.1 in my case) or something else -
gremlins come to mind.
But, as you know me, your problem, my problem, nobodys problem just get the
job done. So, I will spend some time trying to do it myself and, if I find a
tool, a script or anything will ask for others to monitor the causes of
WindowEyes slowdowns and crashes on their computers to help isolate the
underlying cause if at all possible.
You guys know the OS, vbScripting and the WindowEyes Scripting Model allot
better than me so I sure could use someplace to start in this project.
I think there is enough brain power in the blind community to do something
but I don't even know what I don't know and that is a big problem when
starting a new, offworld, project as it were.
