Ya, one of the things about accessibility of programs that bugs me is when the
dialogue tells you that you can maneuver through an app’s section using the
arrow keys, but then you try to use them, and they don’t work. Why is that?
Wonky tagging? Incomplete development? Both of the above? Grin
I’m sorting through a few bugs with windows 10 mail right now. Hyperlinks
stopped working in emails for some reason, and all google searches to try and
find solutions point to other Microsoft email aps. I also had to install the
latest version of iTunes, which is really different from the year old version I
was running before the virus, so I need a crash course on that. . Accessibility
never stops it’s fight to keep you on your toes.
I have no room to complain though, as the virus was no one’s fault but my own.

Subject: [blind-philly-comp] Re: In need of link to download Malwarebytes free
version
I installed version 3 of Malwarebytes. In spite of its new user interface it
appears to be reasonably accessible using NVDA. Bear in mind that I don't
currently have JAWS installed at home and so I haven't used that particular
combination.
Like the previous version, parts of the interface are somewhat wonky. Pretty
much all navigation happens when using the tab key, which moves from one item
to the next. Even when your focus i on the tab controls, left and right arrows
don't move from one tab to the next, as a user would expect. It's also odd that
I can't locate a button to check for updates, although you can get to it by
moving to Malwarebytes on your task bar and pressing the context menu key or
what is referred to as the applications key.
If you are using NVDA's review cursor, it seems to be exposing some messages
which aren't always appearing visually. As an example, my review cursor found a
message saying that I had been downgraded to the free version, even though this
was not the case.

Thanks for any help, and have a great afternoon.
Oh ya, did I mention that I really really hate viruses a wicked lot?
Thanks again.
