That's why I don't use windows and don't play nexus. Even with screenreader partial solutions on windows sites use proprietary controls and since they're not standard controls no screenreader solution for windows will ever be anything but partial. I had to use windows at work for 18 years the first year was used just to find out how jaws worked on windows and the other 17 years were a waste. I was using windows at work before narrator was released too. The only good thing I can write about windows 3.1 is when it crashed you could delete c:\windows and everything below it and get a talking computer back until it could be reinstalled. Microsoft messed that up by putting windows stuff all over the hard drive with release of Windows 95. I promised myself if I lived long enough to retire I would use linux and that's how it has since turned out. Originally was given a laptop with windows on it after retirement and updates went fine until service pack 3 and the laptop went belly up. So tried installing linux on it and that didn't work so the laptop got trashed and I got a computer and got linux on it and went from there. When I was working windows and referbished nmci computers had to be supported by help desk personnel just to keep operating and me being on retirement I'm too remote for a help desk and haven't got the money to pay for a help desk or jaws updates either. If I had to use windows I'd install nvda and make some donations rather than install jaws to keep my expenses down. I have no state aid here and don't expect it either.
