Hi, Seconded! I am trying out securecrt8 and jaws 17 does not read options out as i'm tabbing through them in preferences dialogs. I'm having to read currentline each time I hit the tab key. NVDA by comparison reads everything just fine. Dave On 10/18/16, Katherine Moss <Katherine.Moss@gordon.edu> wrote:
I still find NVDA to be the best screen reader for Windows 10; doesn't seem to be plagued by the issues that JAWS does.

Hello Troy and Billy,
Maybe this is an issue that has popped up from older software. As I have a similar issue with Windows 7, Jaws 17 and specifically closing a Word 2007 document that causes Jaws to stop working. Jaws only states that Program Manager is unavailable" ? My workaround is to either log off, reboot or unload jaws close the word document and then start Jaws again. We do use AD and have our environment locked down. Although I have a somewhat less restricted "Developer" profile.
Hopefully upgrading soon, Lance

Hi Troy,
My wife's work computer does this. FS had no resolution either. They took it all the way up the chain at Freedom. I do know their AD setting have tightened on their network. So, can you share if this system is on an AD and has strict policies in place?
Thanks Kindly,
Billy

Has anyone encountered the issue that JAWS stops reading the start menu, the system notification tray and the Windows I settings? NVDA works properly but something changed possibly in a Windows 10 update to cause this? Freedom Scientific suggested reinstalling JAWS and trying a new profile, but hasn't worked. Thought I ask if anyone else has seen this in Windows 10.
