Hi Chris, You could install again the default global settings by going to the Factory settings option in the File menu in the WE control panel. After highlighting default global settings in the list view, simply tab to the Install button and press Enter.

Interestingly enough when the problem I'm about to describe started happening, she was running window-eyes 8.4, but I thought upgrading to 9.1 might solve the problem. Unfortunately, it didn't so here I am. What's happening is that for whatever reason she's unable to read edit boxes in certain applications like her twitter client called Chicken Nugget, and most notably in Miranda NG, which she uses for Facebook chat. when you're in a text area you should be able to use your arrow keys to read back what you've written letter by letter, sentence by sentence, etc. However, when she tries to do this, window-eyes simply says blank, blank, blank. This happened after she rebooted her pc after it locked up for whatever reason, i'm not quite sure why. Either way, Is there a fix for this? I am considering having her do a system restore to try and bring the pc back to a time before this started happening, but because she upgraded to 9.1 i'm not sure if this would be a real issue. These edit boxes read just fine with other screenreaders, but they won't read using window-eyes. Something is not allowing these edit boxes to read. So any help is greatly appreciated. If you guys need any clarification, please let me know what we can do to fix the issue. This happened with both 8.4, and it also happens with 9.1.
