I first have to say that I haven't used the latest version as yet.  I am
still using version 10.5.

I will go and download the latest version after I have sent this message.  I
will let you know what I think about it and the problems I experience.

I am one of those people who believes that if something is not broken, then
do not fix it.

There have been times when I have upgraded to a later version of a piece of
software, only to discover and be disappointed that the newer version does
not function as well as the older version., and I have had to return to the
previous version.

In the last version of Easy CD-CDDA Extractor version 10, as with previous
versions, the only function I had a problem accessing is, and was the
"Config" menu.

In all versions, I always have had to use the JAWS cursor and then click the
menu button with the JAWS left mouse button to open it.

Well, I am off to get the latest version.

Sincerely:

Dave Durber
