[JAWS-Users] What To Do If Your Computer Won't Upgrade To Windows 10
What To Do If Your Computer Won't Upgrade To Windows 10 Digital Trends As PC users round the world start prepare to download the Windows 10 upgrade, a number of people have scoured their older Windows platforms in vain for the update marker. The icon which installs the Windows 10 app and allows you to upgrade is a small Windows picture located in your System Tray at the lower right corner of your screen. For many people this icon has popped up automatically (some people are even trying to get rid of it). Others, however, don't see it at all. Related: Here's how to prepare your PC for Windows 10 If your little icon is missing, don't worry - you can probably still download Windows 10. You just need to get your computer ready with a few preparatory updates. Here's what you need to do and what important circumstances you should watch for. Windows 7 If you are running Windows 7, then you need to update, update, update. It's easy to switch from Windows 7 to Windows 10, but your operating system needs to be ready. If that little icon isn't popping up for you, then you are using an older version of Windows 7 that is simply not equipped to handle a new OS without some intermediary updates to show it the way. This is probably because you have your Automatic Updates turned off. Head over to the Control Panel, click on System and then choose Automatic Updates. You can also manually choose to update absolutely everything. Leave no update box unchecked. When your computer is through, reboot and you should see the icon to get the Windows 10 upgrade. Note to Enterprise users: The icon only works for Windows 7 SP1, which is the version that all those updates are giving you. There are some versions of 7, namely Windows 7 Enterprise, where you simply cannot get the update yet. If you really don't want to update everything on a compatible computer, or the update doesn't seem to be working, things just became much more complex. You're going to have to pick and choose the right updates manually. First, download the necessary updates. This includes the update here (3035583) and here (2952664). Without these updates, Windows 7 isn't equipped to handle the Windows 10 installation app. Then download the app itself. There's a great post by Microsoft support engineer Yaqub K on this very issue that shows you what to do. You will need to copy the recommend text and paste it into Notepad, then save it under a specific file name that you can then use in a command prompt. Follow the steps carefully, wait for around 30 minutes, then you should be able to reboot and have the app ready. Windows 8 (and 8.1) Again, the trick here is to upgrade your operating system. If you do not use automatic updating, you will need to go over to Settings, select Change PC Settings, and then choosing Update and Recovery. This will allow you to do a full update across the board and reboot your PC, after which the Windows 10 icon should appear fresh and happy in your system tray. This menu also lets you choose to expand your automatic updates under the Choose how updates get installed tab. Note to Enterprise and RT users: As with Windows 7, Windows 8 does come with some caveats. If you have Windows 8/8.1 Enterprise, or Windows RT/RT 8.1, you won't be able to get the Windows 10 Update icon or app to appear on your own. Sit tight and wait for Microsoft. Additionally, if you want to go the manual route and download the right updates and nothing more, then you will still have to does some extra work. The steps are similar to cherry-picking on Windows 7. First you will need two downloads, this one here (2976978) and here (3035583). This will prepare your operating to accept the entire framework for getting your Windows 10 upgrade app. Again, this handy post is very useful for the next step. Paste the big block of text into Notepad and save it as indicated. Then you will have to run the code via Command Prompt. Only do this after completing the first two updates in step one. Computers on a professional network If you use your computer on a professional network, then getting the update app may be out of your hands. Schools and business organizations run networks with pretty tight firewalls in place. Updates are typically managed via administration or IT departments so that nothing gets through that isn't supposed to. In these cases, your organization probably has a plan to eventually convert to Windows 10 (hopefully). As we don't need to tell you, these rollout plans can take a long time. Meanwhile, there's little you can do except ask IT how it's going and maybe give them some doughnuts, because their job is hard. Older Windows operating systems If you picked up on the "no update for you" sections of our Windows 7 and Windows 8 guides, then you probably noticed that older computers and certain operating systems cannot download the Windows 10 update app, period. Microsoft has determined that these computers a

Susie, It is possible, the reading pane should be turned off. Are you using outlook 2010 ? -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Susie Sent: February-08-13 8:15 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] a dificalt question about Jaws? Hi, I was wondering, I had asked a question a few days ago about a jaws problem, and it was pretty much ignored, but some one writes in about a question about a simple smily faice issue and it generates a hole days of replies? I don't get it? I have been dealing with this issue for three days now, and I have gotten no help, so I just wonder? My question was, why all of a sudden is Jaws reading part of an email, when there is no email open, I am sitting on the list, in my inbox, and when I arrow down, I don't hear the name of the sender, nor any part of the subject line, and the date, time, and size of the email? And the fact that some times when in list view, jaws does not read at all I have to arrow down once, and back up to hear the sender's name, and that is how I here the senders name, and stuff, after I here part of the email.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft accessibility support.
Good morning folks, I read somewhere that the Microsoft Accessibility Support has an email address, but I couldn't find it. Would anyone know this email address ? Thanks. gaston -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Richard Hamel Sent: November-24-13 8:09 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft accessibility support. I agree! I've used the service a few times and it has saved me money, and has fixed many problems.

I must say what a great service! They assisted with doing a reinstall of the .net platform which took approximately 3 hours, what patience and it took to getting that done. I believe this service has saved me a bunch of money, approximately $250, which I would have had to pay out to a home service PC technician. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of jim rawls Sent: October 15, 2013 9:04 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] Microsoft accessibility support. Have any of you used their free 800 number for help? How were they to deal with, and can they scan your computer to diagnose your specific problem?
