Thanks, Rod Sent from Outlook for Windows -----Original Message----- From: Talk <talk-bounces+rod_hutton=hotmail....@lists.window-eyes.com> On Behalf Of Mike via Talk Sent: September 8, 2020 3:38 AM To: peter Chin via Talk <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Cc: Mike <kazej...@runbox.com> Subject: Re: Win 10 And WE 9.5.4 Hello Everyone I haven't been following this thread so apologies if I am off the mark. I recently installed the latest update for Windows 10. I think it was a security update. Window-eyes on my desktop then started opening and then complete silence. I tried using NVDA, Jaws and Narrator but to no avail. In the meantime my laptop was working fine with exactly the same update. I then wrote to someone on another list who I believe works for Microsoft. He advised trying "sndvol" which made absolutely no difference. After about two weeks my machines both downloaded and installed another update of some kind. Miraculously, my desktop suddenly started talking again and I haven't had any further problems. A Web search found a lot of comments about the update to Win 10 was causing problems with certain makes of sound card Etc. I have no idea if any of this is to do with your discussion but I thought the information might be helpful. Sorry for going on so long. Best wishes Mike.
