Andrew, just an update.
I’ve been using NVDA with it on one computer and Narrator on the other. Yes,
NVDA is much nicer to work with for sure. Hopefully I just stopped the
incessant beeping when doing edits or playing previews. I haven’t checked that
yet, but from what I can tell, it had something to do with mouse settings.
Thanks.

Alyssa, get to know NVDA. It will be a good friend (smile).

Thank you, David. I did not think Window Eyes was available anymore. I know how
to use it a bit but am not very familiar with NVDA.

Hi Alyssa,
the crashing while using Jaws has started with the Windows 10 creators update,
and Freedom Scientific are aware of the problem. There are no problems when
using either NVDA or Window-Eyes, so the recommended work around is to use one
of these other screen readers when using Audacity until the problem is fixed,
David.

Hi all.
I know I’ve missed messages on this subject due to life.
In the latest update to Audacity running Win 10 and JFW 18, I’m experiencing
crashes whenever I do nearly anything.
Is there a way to get around this, or does Windows need to fix something? It is
happening on two different computers unfortunately.
