Tom, Thanks for your many ideas. Things clreared up a bit, when Larry tells us, that things happen immediately after him pressing the hotkey. That is, before the app gets to even show its initial dialog. Agree with you Tom, something is going on in the initiating of the app. For some reason,

Larry, First, no need to go to confession on Window-Eyes for Office. It's the same program. (smile) Like Rod, I thought of the Fall Creators update after sending my message because from what I've read it's pretty buggy. And I haven't updated to it either. So did this start right after

No Tom, it gives me the error as soon as I give the ctrl-alt-v command . I can do nothing beyond that point. I also get some kind of a wave file sound just as the error is read, or voiced. And yes, I am updated to build 1709. I can't remember if I've had occasion to try to use VV since

OK, got no answer for you. Still some reflections. I just tried VV in Thunderbird, both in the list of messages, and in an open message window. I tried running VV, choosing the Active Window - it worked just fine. I tried running VV, asking it to go for the focused window - it worked as ever

Hi Tom, Actually, I was benignly referring to app errors in general, not Virtual View specifically. I was attempting to address Larry's concern that such an error foreshadowed the inability of Window-Eyes to continue to work in Windows 10 at all. One question which I have is whether this is an

Tom, Thanks for the suggestion. I did look to see if Windows TIFF iFilter  was indeed checked,, and it was, but it made no difference. The error comes up as soon as I run VV. I must confess that I am using WE for Office, but never have experienced this ever before. It has always been a

Hmm. You see these errors "all the time" Rod? I don't recall ever seeing such an error. Making sure the object exists and pausing and trying again if it doesn't should prevent this most of the time. But of course there are always exceptions to the rule. We can only pause and try again so many

Does this happen on all windows you try to virtual view, or only a specific window? On Mon, 30 Oct 2017 18:30:36 -0400, Larry Higgins via Talk wrote: > > Well Rod, I've tried it all, but no go. I've even restarted the > 'puter, so I dunno. If anything else occurs to you pleas let me > know. > >

Hi Larry, This looks to me like an app error similar to errors that I encounter all the time when an app needs info which isn't ready to be delivered to it. If you know how to open the App Manager, simply reload the app and see if the app then loads properly. Alternatively, simply shut down WE

Dear Listers, I've never encountered this one before. For some reason I am getting the below error whenever trying to use Virtual View. I have tried reinstalling using Apget, but this seems to do nothing to help. Any ideas please? I just hope this isn't a sign of WE falling apart as I speak.
