>> Hello:
>>
>> I have a Windows 10 laptop and I find it harder to use than the 
>> windows 7 computers.  When I get email messages I cannot open them 
>> using the most recent version of NVDA or Jaws 16.  I can move down 
>> the list of messages with the arrow keys but I cannot open the 
>> message so it can be read.  On my Windows 7 computer I used Windows 
>> Live for email but it is no longer available.  I cannot afford to 
>> upgrade my version of Jaws.  It is impossible for me to use email 
>> with my Comcast web
> mail and with Outlook.
>> I hate the changes that Microsoft keeps throwing at us whether we 
>> want them or not.  It seems that Microsoft is making it harder for us 
>> with Windows 10.  Is there a list for Windows 10 users?

>> Rebecca,
>>
>> I am writing this response to both lists.  If you are using Office 
>> 365, the problem you are noticing is almost certainly an Outlook 
>> issue.  I am having the same problem.  In the latest Freedom 
>> Scientific podcast, Eric Damery stated that Microsoft changed how 
>> they communicated the AutoComplete information such that JAWS does 
>> not pick it up.  I found that neither the latest build of JAWS 18 or 
>> JAWS 17 reads this information any longer.  He stated that there 
>> would be an update for JAWS 18 that will fix this and that the JAWS 
>> 2018 Public Beta 2 will also fix this.  It appears to me that the
>> 2018 Public Beta 2 does seem to correct this.
>>
>> Those of us using Office 365 get updates pushed to us without any 
>> sort of notice, and things can change.  In meetings I have with 
>> Microsoft, I plan to ask how the negative impacts of changes like 
>> this are fed back to developers.  Of course they should not happen, 
>> but they do and they will.
>> Somehow their development teams need to understand that issues like 
>> this cause many of us to spend time trying to figure out what we are 
>> doing wrong, what we accidentally changed, not to mention writing to 
>> lists for help when it was a Microsoft change.
>>
>> One thing I have noticed with Outlook is that when there is an update 
>> that was pushed out, we often get the chance to find out what is now 
>> even more exciting.  This is a sign that one might want to be aware 
>> of anything that works differently.
>>
>> I am finding the JAWS 2018 Public Beta versions to be pretty stable.
>> That might be the quickest way to fix this problem.  It is not clear 
>> to me from the Podcast when the next build of JAWS 18 will be out, 
>> and also, whether there will be an update notice.  One might need to 
>> check the web site now and then to see if a newer build is available.
>> Others closer to the JAWS update cycles may have better information.
>> I would have had no idea of why this was happening if I had not 
>> decided to listen to the podcast this morning.
>>
>> Best regards,
>>
>> Steve Jacobson

>> I updated to JFW 18. Whatever, the latest version of JFW.

>> Anybody know how to correct this?
