terminal in Windows 10
by David Thomas 26 Oct '17

26 Oct '17

Hello, I've installed the Windows 10 fall creators update plus the stable version of jaws 2018. When I go into the terminal to work with bash or power shell jaws just says text area, and doesn't read the output automatically. When I up arrow it says C:\users\username, and nothing else. I'm wondering if there are any specific settings that you need to configure in the terminal properties to make the screen reader work optimally. Any help would be appreciated. Regards David Thomas Email:david.thomas@davidthetechguy.com

Need an accessible yamp
by Steve Matzura 21 Oct '17

21 Oct '17

A long long time ago, it was common for a Windows or Linux user to install a product known as a yamp, which stands for "yet another MVC / PHP framework". The most popular one these days is called XAMPP, which gives you the Maria MySQL, Perl, and PHP. However, XAMPP is totally not accessible, even with OCR. There are also lots of things you can run to install and connect other things to the PHP you get when you install XAMPP, but since I can't get the core application installed, the other Bitnami stuff is useless to me. Is there another system whose core installer is accessible? As always, thanks in advance for any information or ideas of where to look. I'm about to try the YAMP on GitHub and will report back on accessibility.

With shortcuts, I usually control them with GPO but for very specific once, I would login with local administrators account, make all necessary shortcuts and that's about it; when domain user logs in, those shortcuts appear on their desktop. Making shortcuts with in domain account would always brake them for no apparent reason, although, things might have been different now when I have folder redirection only and no roaming profiles. I can't really say they would get broken because of roaming profiles, but I can say for sure that I had a lot of corrupted profiles because of roaming.

When I was working with desktops I moved to having redirected folders so specific profile folders were moved to the server and accessed from there. A DFS share was controlling replication so the data was sent across multiple servers. It did mean that for example if users logged into another machine then they would have to set up Outlook etc but they didn't seem to mind this as it was a fairly quick process. It also saved us a lot of disk space as well. In my current job I notice very much that people seem to be moving to laptops and they don't move around to other workstations. This was also happening in my old job especially with IT staff.

Another option could be to use Group Policy Preferences to get the desktop icons, for this, when I was having this issue it was with XP and 2003 DCs, that was how long ago it was.

All are running Office 2010 32 bit. Though we started using roaming profiles a few months ago because to keep settings, desktop icons and stuff. But making groups and dropping icons using scripts or gpo might be an interesting idea. Does it help to drop the most used icons into the machines public desktop?

I created a group for users who want Office on the desktop, then had a login script which copied the shortcuts for Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook from the All Users folder to the desktop so it overwrote the existing file that was there. I spent ages trying to identify why it happened in the first place but I did have it. I eventually got rid of roaming profiles altogether and had a much easier life. If you have workstations with differing Office versions this did cause issues as you could end up with multiple version icons on the desktop.
