With respect - even if Window-eyes development and sales cease,
continued use of Window-eyes will lock people into legacy computing.
I've just fought unsuccessfully with Window-eyes, Internet Explorer and
my bank's web site and my non-technical view is that the bank makes
changes to its coding which make Window-eyes unstable. Microsoft have
still locked us out of the Edge Browser, and even if it truly commits to
unlocking it, Will Window-Eyes know about Edge's latest and greatest.
I don't understand why people are buying cds when a personalised link
to your serial number can be asked for at no cost. Transfer the
downloaded file to an external storage device.
A working install from scratch is obviously sensible, but its value
will reduce in the longer term as other parts of our computing
experience change.
Based on comments from other users, I won't be hanging on the phone for
45 plus minutes to talk to someone who doesn't know about Window-Eyes -
I do not live in the United States, and Window-Eyes is no lonhger worth
the telephone charges.
And probably: to add to the contempt wiht which VFO treats its
customers, i'll be told to talk to my local dealer.
If I were to ask who my local Window-Eyes dealer is, i'll be given the
name of that dealer whom I know to be Window-Eyes useless.
If CSUN and official announcements reveal "an exciting new screen
reader" which fixes all the bugs we are putting up with, i'll part with
cash. I need a working screen reader, which is ready for when I have to
update hardware and applications. I do not want it to be JFW, but i'd
respond positively to a new screen reader which has been designed and
developed by all of this talent which VFO apparently now has.

Yes, it is sad that at some point our beloved win eyes may cease to exist.
However, as long as we users still talk to each other, then the list is
indeed alive and will survive for some time yet.
I was concerned that if I had a probmem with win eyes, I would not be able
to get support, so, I phoned fo and purchased the latest versioon of win
eyes and if My version of win eyes gets sick and is unable to run, then I
can reinstall 9.5.4 and win eyes will live again.
At present, I am running 9.5.4 on both a windows 7 and windows 10 computers.
And as long as we have wonderful like Rod and others, we are not buried yet.
Long live win eyes
Don
