So, with all the cooperation they have over the years enjoyed with
various access tech companies and organisations, with all the
awareness of the importance of inclusive design they still fail to
make their latest browser which they have allegedly built from the
ground up, accessible to a significant percentage of their customers.
I don't know about you guys, but it's hard not to feel somewhat second class.

Hi,
Yes, the default browser will be the new edge browser, but, I believe you
can still choose to use internet explorer instead.
The advice from the FS to await for a while before upgrading to win 10 as
there are some accessibility bugs that needs to be ironed-out. Although I
think jaws 16 update will enable us to use win 10 somewhat, the version 17
will have much better experience I think.
Thank you
Ali

I wonder if they have delivered on their threat/promise to
this rubbish.Explorer with a new browser..
Would it be too much to hope for the return of the old style Windows
Explorer? <smile>
All best, Matt

Hello Robin,
I wonder if they fixed the 64 bit version but not the 32 bit, mine is
64 bit and it is working fine so far.

Hi, I am so annoyed, I went to the FS site and downloaded the latest
version.... I now have that stupid [no disrespect to my British
neighbours] English voice chipping in all the time that I don't want. I
just want the old default american english Reed, not this plastic stuff
that I find hard to understand.

Sigh, I am going to have to do a system restore to get rid of

Thanks for the tip off about the voice fix, I checked on the FS site
and sure enough, the fix is mentioned so I downloaded the latest
version and I have all the right voices.

Hello Folks.
I've just picked up a suggestion on my PC to get Windows 10. Didn't
know it was out already.
Could anyone please tell me if it's better than Windows 8 which I
steered clear of. Also, does Jaws 16 support it?
As an extra, I'm glad to say FS have now got rid of that awful voice.
Best wishes,
Joan.
