RE: Problem Solved:Window-eyes Not Reading Certain Windows Reliably
David, Yes, I've already been in contact with AI Squared but you were the first person I've read who has gone through the PC reset process which is why I was interested in your comments. Thanks. I am a long-time Window-Eyes user and have always appreciated their support.

You should still be left with items such as documents and downloads but I'd still recommending a full backup before doing the reset, if that's what you plan to do. Have you contacted AI Squared for any additional suggestions? If you're using the commercial version of Window-eyes you'd get free support and so it wouldn't hurt to contact them directly first. I'm using the free edition for users of Office and, for me, doing the reset on a Saturday was something I didn't mind doing.

Re: Problem Solved:Window-eyes Not Reading Certain Windows Reliably
David, I have tried the repair without success and have it on good authority that a reset is necessary. I did not realize that leaving personal files would still remove apps, though, so I appreciate that explanation. Using Narrator is not a problem here so I have to just decide if it is worth taking the plunge. Thanks for the input.

Re: Problem Solved:Window-eyes Not Reading Certain Windows Reliably
Steve, First, Loy's suggestion below is worth an attempt, as I'd hate to see anybody going through a reset if doing so can be avoided. In my case, running the diagnostics Loy describes did not solve the problem for me but, if it does for you, it's a very quick fix. With my computer, it was upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10 and I eventually upgraded it to the anniversary update. The reset option has the option of keeping personal files, which I chose, but even this option will erase any programs that you have installed. Therefore, while a reset will likely solve the problem you're having you will have to reinstall and, in most cases, reconfigure all of your software. In my case, the issue I was having with Window-eyes was one of three issues, all of which were likely unrelated. The other problems I was having is that my backup would fail at around 4 percent and I'd get an error every time I would launch System Protection. I found these problems to be extremely inconvenient. I did call the Microsoft answer desk but all of the attempts the rep tried to implement did not fix my issues. He was willing to escalate the problem to a higher tier but I concluded that performing a reset and reinstalling my software would actually take less time than having another rep trying more solutions and so a reset is what I chose.

Re: Problem Solved:Window-eyes Not Reading Certain Windows Reliably
I'm having trouble with Thunderbird. Sometimes when my computer hibernates and wakes up, I can't read anything in a particular email. Yet, I can read all the email titles and dates on my inbox. I find that when I reboot the system, I can read specific messages. And then, randomly, it happens again. In fact, I even just now tried to backspace to delete a letter, and heard nothing spoken by WE.--Matthew Chao On 11/5/2016 12:34 PM, Steve Jacobson via Talk wrote: David, I am experiencing some similar behavior.
