Hi Roger,
I think the major problem with Windows 10 and Jaws is that the new internet
browser "Edge" does not work well with any screenreader. I believe that you
will need to make Internet Explorer the default for accessing the web.

Hi,

I'm not familiar with Cortana.
If the person is new to computers, I would suggest using the marvelsoft
talking typing tutor program.
The Missouri adaptive technology tap program is a source for obtaining jaws
software.

Hello everyone,
I am trying to help someone set up a computer that he just purchased.  It
has Windows 10, and I was able to get Cortana activated.  I was trying to
operate the computer using Cortana and realized that Cortana is listening to
the narrator.  I was thinking of getting JAWS for this guy but I am
concerned that there will be an issue.  Is there someone on this list that
utilizes both Cortana and JAWS?  If so, do you have to use a headset?

The man never learned keyboarding, and I'm trying to get him started with as
few keyboard commands as I can.  My hope is that this will come with the
comfort of learning.

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide.
