JessDail<p>who here uses <a href="https://caneandable.social/tags/TWBlue" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>TWBlue</span></a>?

I'm not sure when it started, but mine is completely inaccessible. Anytime I try to use PictureSmart, FS Companion, or anything else that uses the results viewer, it opens, but I can't read anything. JAWS won't do anything while on that window, and escape doesn't close it like it should. I tried repairing JAWS but that didn't fix anything, so I'm wondering if it's a script I use causing the problem. The only scripts I have installed are Leasey and the Zoom pro scripts by <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://dragonscave.space/@brian_hartgen" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>brian_hartgen</span></a></span> and a few scripts for things like Discord and Unigram by Doug Lee. I'm starting to contemplate a complete reinstall of JAWS though because not being able to use the results viewer is causing me more and more pain.<br><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://mastodon.social/@freedomscientific" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>freedomscientific</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/mastoblind" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>mastoblind</span></a></span> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://rblind.com/c/main" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>main</span></a></span> <br><a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>blind</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/tech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>tech</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/accessibility" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>accessibility</span></a> <a href="https://allovertheplace.ca/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a></p>

I'm having a wierd issue with my left arrow key, that is exclusive to Reaper.

JessDail<p><span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://tweesecake.social/@serrebi" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>serrebi</span></a></span> What's wrong with the web client?

Mrs. Future-to-be Andrews<p>One thing I miss about Outlook is that while using JAWS 2025, I would hear whether or not I replied to a message while arrowing through messages in a particular folder. Does this functionality exist in Thunderbird? I haven't been able to find any information on this. <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Blind</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Screennreader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Screennreader</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Thunderbird" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Thunderbird</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Outlook" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Outlook</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/JAWS2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JAWS2025</span></a></p>
Mrs. Future-to-be Andrews<p>Is it just me, or is searching for something in the Windows 11 Start Menu search box using a screenreader is annoying? In Win 10, I used to be told the first match. Now, arrowing through things is highly unresponsive, and even reading what I've typed there is a pain. <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Windows" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Windows</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Blind" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Blind</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Screenreader" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Screenreader</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/Technology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Technology</span></a> <a href="https://universeodon.com/tags/JAWS2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JAWS2025</span></a></p>

Jessica Dail<p>does anyone know what the Kenisis keyboard mode does? I enabled it once but immediately switched back to desktop mode because most of the commands I'm used to weren't working as they previously had. I have not tried it since the release of <a href="https://mastodon.hams.social/tags/Jaws2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Jaws2025</span></a>.</p>
Robin Frost<p>I always say I'm never afraid to say I was wrong. And so apparently I am wrong and <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://dragonscave.space/@brian_hartgen" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">@<span>brian_hartgen</span></a></span> is right. I've finally been hit with a bug in <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/JAWS2025" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JAWS2025</span></a> and it's a bad one. When in <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/MicrosoftWord365" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>MicrosoftWord365</span></a> if you navigate to the ribbon, mailings tab and create envelopes Word crashes when using <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/JAWS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>JAWS</span></a> but not when using Narrator and <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/NVDA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>NVDA</span></a>. This is unacceptable. Anyone have an installer for 2024? <a href="https://dragonscave.space/tags/Oy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>Oy</span></a></p>

I'd love to play it but can't figure out how to access my steam account at the moment. Do I enter my email or username? Also, it seems to default to Chinese, but I speak English &amp; can't find a way to change the language setting. Any tips or advice?</p>
