Hi there! While I don't necessarily disagree, I did talk to someone at VFO and he told me that the SMAs are still being sold and no they have no real time table, but the product is still being created and supported. Now why we have heard nothing from them is a damned good question.

Karyn: It is not worth getting an SMA. If you like Window-eyes, and if it does what you require as a tool of your job, certainly by the latest release, but hold off on the SMA. Remember: the SMA is giving someone your money ahead of them supplying the goods. There is no guarantee as to when

The future development of Window Eyes is dead. We were lucky that WE works with the Creator update of Win 10. What we haven't seen however is any improvement in WE to work with the Edge browser as well as any fixes for any bugs. NVDA is a good choice for replacing WE however I know not
