Hi Ibrahim, the following guides for windows 8.1 were written for Jaws users, but most of the material would be applicable. One exception to this is that I think that Window-eyes has a different way of navigating the pinned items on the start screen. File Explorer: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/File-Explorer-8p1-Guide.html Taskbar: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Taskbar-8p1-Guide.html Search pane: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Search-Pane-8p1-Guide.html Start screen: http://vip.chowo.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/jaws/Start-Screen-8p1-Guide.html best wishes, David. original message: Afternoon everyone I've just had to purchase a Windows 8 computer as my MacBook Pro has failed spectacularly and has been sent off for repair. This means I'm without a computer for the next few days and since I have much that needs to be done, I need to be up and running with Windows 8 as soon as possible. Can anyone point me to some comprehensive accessibility resources for Windows 8.1 in order that I may get started as soon as possible. My new computer already comes with Microsoft office and so I will be using the free window eyes screen reader promotion.
