GW Micro is proud to announce the highly anticipated release of
Window-Eyes 7.5. This version of Window-Eyes introduces several new
features, including a completely re-designed (and much more intuitive)
user interface, full UIA support, support for Internet Explorer 9 and
Windows Live Mail/Windows Live Messenger 2011, plus a brand new Remote
Assistance feature. In addition to these new features, Window-Eyes 7.5
also boasts a significant performance increase in Microsoft Office
products, along with many bug fixes and stability improvements.

Window-Eyes 7.5 is also the first version of Window-Eyes to re-brand the
notion of scripts into a more comfortable and recognizable term: apps.
Window-Eyes Apps embrace a broader sense of usage by including
everything from program enhancements that deal specifically with
accessibility issues to more convenience-oriented apps and everything in
between. While the underlying structure of these Window-Eyes
enhancements is the same industry standard that has been in place since
its inception in Window-Eyes 7.0, the concept of an app is more widely
known, and the use of this term will help eliminate the confusion often
associated with the more technical expression. Window-Eyes 7.5 will
include a number of new apps that have been designed to make your
applications more accessible and create a more enjoyable computing
experience overall.

Window-Eyes 7.5 is a paid upgrade for existing Window-Eyes users. If you
already own Window-Eyes 7.X and have an active software maintenance
agreement (SMA), you will be receiving your Window-Eyes 7.5 CD in the
mail soon. Please be patient; Window-Eyes SMA CDs are our first priority
but it might take several days before we are able to ship the CDs to all
of our SMA customers. You may also choose to download your Window-Eyes
7.5 upgrade for immediate installation. To download the Window-Eyes 7.5
upgrade, to check the status of your SMA count, or to determine your
upgrade eligibility, go to the Window-Eyes Help menu, and choose the
Window-Eyes Upgrade option. Alternatively, you can visit
http://www.gwmicro.com/upgrade <../../upgrade>, and follow the instructions.

If you already own Window-Eyes but don’t have an active SMA, you may
purchase an upgrade to Window-Eyes 7.5. Please contact GW Micro or your
local dealer for upgrade pricing. US customers can also refer to the GW
Micro Window-Eyes Upgrade Catalog page
(https://www.gwmicro.com/Catalog/Upgrades/) for applicable upgrade costs.

Window-Eyes 7.5 supports Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows
Server 2003 and Windows Server 2008. As of July 13, 2010, Microsoft
ended support for all Windows 2000 products. Window-Eyes 7.5, therefore,
will not install under Windows 2000, and requires at least Windows XP to
run.
