Hi, All, Let me start out by saying that I follow the activity in this group and am very impressed with the technical know-how and willingness to share info amongst group members. I think I can offer some insight on this issue and at the same time am hoping that those of you experiencing the problem can send me icacls output so we can refine what JAWS does. Starting with Windows 8.1 and continuing with Windows 10, Modern/Universal apps, into which category the start menu falls, run in a restricted security context. They are only able to read the contents of files/directories for which rights are explicitly granted to "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES." In other words, they aren't governed by entries for "All Users." This matters because JAWS has a component called Jhook that needs to be injected into the Start Menu process in order to read the Start Menu. Without these rights on the directory/files, the start menu process can't load Jhook.dll. On clean Windows 10 machines, newly created directories inside of Program Files inherit read/execute permissions for "ALL APPLICATION PACKAGES" but directories that already exist during an upgrade from Windows 7 appear to not get this permission. So JAWS, when it installs, now unconditionally sets read/execute for this SID on the JAWS-version directory and it's children, but not for its parent directories. Our test and the experience of most users revealed that this was enough to make the start menu talk on machines upgrading from Windows 7, but we continue to get sporadic reports that it was not. For those of you having the problem would you let me know if these are Windows 7 upgraded machines? Also, would you send me off-list the output of Icacls " C:\Program Files\Freedom Scientific" /t /c This will show all of the security entries for the Freedom Scientific tree, continuing if errors are encountered. You should be able to resolve this by adding the Read/Execute right for "All Application Packages" on the Freedom Scientific Directory and have it be inherited for all objects and containers. We very much want to improve the upgrade experience for people and will adapt our installers as we gain more understanding of what's still problematic for some.

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:
