but how do i do it?- If you already have Windows 10 then you can either use the Update Assistant, which just entails going to the Windows 10 Download Page, then activating the Update Now button, or Doing a Windows 10 Repair Install or Feature Update Using the Windows 10 ISO file If you anticipate having a lot of questions about either Windows 10 or 11 as a screen reader user, please consider joining the Windows Access for Screen Reader Users Group (Formerly: Windows 10 for Screen Reader Users Group) Group Archive: https://winaccess.groups.io/g/winaccess/topics Subscribe: winaccess+subscribe@winaccess.groups.io Post: winaccess@winaccess.groups.io Unsubscribe: winaccess+unsubscribe@winaccess.groups.io Group Owner: winaccess+owner@winaccess.groups.io Help: winaccess+help@winaccess.groups.io Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H1, Build 19043 The stoical scheme of supplying our wants by lopping off our desires is like cutting off our feet when we want shoes. ~ Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) |

You need the media creation tool and once done you make a usb stick with it. Then you can just run setup and install or have media tool upgrade the pc. If you mean with a usb stick from scratch, you need to start the system while holding down f8. Then with sighted help select the right boot device, then after a little keep hitting windows control enter and narator starts. On 07/12/2021, Brian Vogel <britechguy@...> wrote:

That is f12, because f8 gives you the windows startup menu for how to start windows.

For drive selection on boot you need f12, and USB will only show if setup in BIOS as a boot device. On 12/6/2021 8:35 PM, Shaun Everiss wrote:

With any install of windows. You can use narrator for startup installtions. Just hit windows key + control + enter key. That will turn narrator on and off. you can use narrator until you get another screen reader installed you know better.

There is no one, universal key press to kick you into boot options of UEFI/BIOS across brands of computer and brands of UEFI/BIOS.
On HP machines, it's Escape during a cold boot. On Dells I believe it is F12. There are some that use F2. Way back when, F8 was often used to invoke Safe Mode, but it wouldn't surprise me if some machine may have used it to trigger BIOS. You have to determine how one gets into BIOS for a given machine. Also, if you are doing a first-time install of an operating system on a machine that's never had one, or a completely clean reinstall of Windows, you do have to get into UEFI/BIOS to do so and there is no screen reader support at that level, and in all probability never will be. By contrast, a Repair Install or Feature Update can be triggered from within an existing running Windows instance and will be accessible using Narrator once the process gets far enough along to allow it to be invoked, and that's pretty early on. You generally have a very short period of time where all of the initial work is being done where Narrator will not start with CTRL + WinKey + Enter, but if you keep trying it eventually will come up. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H1, Build 19043 The stoical scheme of supplying our wants by lopping off our desires is like cutting off our feet when we want shoes. ~ Jonathan Swift (1667-1745) |
