You should probably try to see what that message is saying. If you can't read the window or navigate around it, try selecting all with control+A and pasting it into Notepad. Also, the Window-Eyes read window hot-key works in two different ways. The first time you press it, it uses the off screen model (OSM) and if you press it again before any other keys are pressed it uses UI Automation (UIA).

Oh, I sure hope that doesn't happen to me! The only thing that happens, sofar, is that once in a while, I get a ding, and that it can't be opened, and an okay button. So, I press okay, and I do it again, and the message comes up.

I don’t know the answer to your question. But over the past few weeks it took longer and longer for e-mail messages to begin reading in WLM, with either JAWS or Window-Eyes, in Windows 7. By last Monday nothing at all would read and nothing could be edited for sending. At that point I decided to try migrating my 50,000 plus messages to Windows 10. I’m starting out with Windows 10 mail and JAWS, but may end up buying a copy of Outlook, because there are a lot of disadvantages to Windows 10 Mail. Windows 10 Mail will read the .eml files that WLM creates, but will not import them into mailboxes; they have to be opened from file explorer one at a time. I hope you’re not experiencing the same WLM problem I did, because I don’t think you can download a fresh copy of WLM safely. It hasn’t been supported by Microsoft since 2012. * Lloyd Rasmussen, Kensington, MD Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Peter Chin via Talk Sent: Saturday, February 27, 2021 7:21 AM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: Peter Chin Subject: Why Do E-mail Messages in Windows Live Mail Sometimes Become SuddenlyUnreadable? Hello All, I wonder if anyone using Windows Live Mail could explain to me why some of my e-mail messages can suddenly become unreadable. I get a message reading something like this: “A problem occurred while opening this message.” Then I am on an OK button which I must activate in order to get out of this message. Thanks in advance for any ideas. _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
