Hi, I sent an email directly to Larry on this issue. The current workaround is to define the set highlight color hot key select the text in wordpad and move the mouse pointer over the selected text. Finally press the hot key you defined. Save the set and shift arrows should read in wordpad under Windows 10.

Sometimes, a file will load and nothing speaks at all Closing and reopening the file and at least the text speaks, but, as you say shift+down arrow doesn't speak the selected text. -- Reg <regw...@btinternet.com> On Fri, 11 Dec 2015 06:46:26 -0600 Larry Higgins via Talk <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> wrote: > Hello Listers, > > I asked about this issue a couple of months ago, and never got a satisfactory > answer. > > For some reason, on my system, We will not read text as it is selected via > the shift+arrow method.
