I think there was something a few months ago. Pam.

Here's another thing. When was the last time there was an update to any
of the Window-eyes apps? There used to be constant improvements/updates
for the apps, but I can't even remember the last time I was prompted for
an update. Has app development been discontinued?
I hope not, but it sure seems that way.

of software world still marches on. And: there are long standing bugs
which now fall into legacy problems. And: VFO and the old GW Micro are
organisationally very different in character.
AiSquared' CEO is (or was) head of software development within VFO.
Because AI Squared was starting to bring some momentum back to
Window-Eyes, and had produced Fusion, I think he is well placed to give us
some official goss.

Hi Jim. I totally agree with you. Let's just focus on the functionality
of Window-Eyes. You are right that all it does is create fear, and
uncertainty when this topic is discussed.

Hi there FOLKS!
I recently enquired about purchasing an SMA for W.E. At this time they
are still selling them. I don't believe they could or would sell
something if the product was no longer going to be supported. All of this
speculation is doing nothing but taking the discussion away from where it
should be, discussing the actual functionality of W.E. So I say lets
continue to use the product for as long as it's being produced as well as
supported and if or when we have to cross a bridge of changing screen
readers then perhaps we can pick up this discussion then..? Catch Ya All
Later! de

Hi Peter. Speaking of what you said about Window-Eyes being dead, I have
contacted our local dealer who sells both JAWS and Window-Eyes to discuss
the situation of what was happening and he was shocked, and he told me
that he had the head from optolek Canada, as Canada does have an optolek
branch here, come and visit him, and the head told our dealer that they
could sell both Optolek and Freedom products and that he wouldn't be
surprised if AI Squared ended up in the same channel.

Hi all,
When the founders and main staff of an organization leave, the business
dies a quick death. There is absolutely no reason why f v o needs to or
wants to support a product that is given away for free.
I recommend all of us check out the Narrator on Windows 10 and NVDA as an
alternative screen reader for the future.
