Hi! The biggest advantage of using Chrome, is being able to press: Alt+F to open one menu, and navigate down that one menu. You can open sub menus with the right arrow. It is so much faster with downloading large files, and streaming video. You will get used to Chrome and love it. If you have any

I am puzzled that someone reported that Firefox 56 worked with Win-Eyes 8.4. It doesn't work for me with Win-Eyes 9.5.4. David, Browse mode is available, but you get nothing but dings when you move the arrow keys, and no output when you use the Tab or shift-Tab key. You can read the menus. You

Pure guessing here. When the Firefox window comes up, are you able to access the menus? If so, Go to Help, and scroll down to     Start with add-ons disabled, and press Enter. This should let Firefox start in its own safe-mode; which btw does have nothing to do with Windows safe-mode. You

I do not want to start a new lengthy arguing over accessibility issues. Yet, a few days ago, we had a discussion running here, as to the latest version of Firefox - 56 - which some users had experienced issues with. I did not have any intention in running into accessibility issues, and hence
