Hi Mike With Window-Eyes version 6 and later, Remote Access via Citrix or Microsoft Remote Terminal services is built-in, if you own a Professional license to the product.
Actually though, as I understand it, Window-Eyes is being given its long overdue total rewrite, which will obviously be a paid upgrade when it is released. But finally, it seems, GW Micro has acknowledge the horrendous latency introduced by Window-Eyes with its huge footprint. If they are now producing true 64-bit code, I am sure that we will see dramatically improved responsiveness throughout the entire product, not just with remote sessions. But I am about to see whether or not I can install it into my Windows 8.1 native system, as I only have a full setup of Window-Eyes 8.2 and the current version, the one being distributed free of charge, is version 8.4. Anybody who owns a license to Windows 8.1 and/or Microsoft Office 2010 or later automatically qualifies for a free license to Window-Eyes. I will contact GW Micro as I am keen to retain my registered serial number if possible.
