I'm considering it. The only thing I don't like is that it seems to use the alphanumeric keys for typing, no matter where it is, which doesn't make a lot of sense to me. That means you can't really us

Thanks for all the recommendations. IIRC, since people seem to be really worried about this, I never touch the Winamp library. I hit shift-l and point it at my albums folder. It starts playing but eve

Yes, really. It will be in the middle of playing music, and it will crash. I'm using a minimal installation, no device sync stuff, no Winamp Agent, no library. I have no idea why it crashes and I'm fr

I see Gom has the player, player Plus which I assume you pay for, and something that's free called Gom Audio. Which one do I want to mess with?

I use VLC for videos, yeah. I'd still use Winamp, if it wasn't crashing fairly regularly. If I knew of some fairly easy thing to try to stop that, I'd install Winamp and give it a shot. But I'm fairly

No. It crashes. It stops playing audio, Windows says there's a problem and it's going to close the program and let me know if there's a solution. You know, crashing. If it was just stuttering every on

Well, I'm trying Gom Audio, as opposed to the player because I have VLC for video playback. Any tips on setting it up? F5 gets you to general preferences and ctrl-p plays and pauses, but that's about

Is there no way to set the audio output device? I have multiple sound cards. I don't see one in either the preferences or the context menus.

Me too, or if anybody wants to gives tips on VLC for audio playback, I can try that too. Gom Audio is gone, I loaded albums into it, it started playing, and then pretty much locked up my machine, or a

Both of those have their own settings, both under preferences I think. If you go in there and check for updates, they should work. It did for Windows App Essentials anyway. I don't know why the automa

so anybody got tips for VLC then? I'm sorry, I'm gonna need a little more than play and pause and moving through a file. Can I load playlists? Can I open folders? Can I arrow through a list of files a

You can also hit windows-x. Applications and features is the first thing. Pick that. Tab to the list, get to skype, not skype classic but the other one, hit enter to expand, and tab to uninstall.

In the new Windows app thing? Sure. In fact I think it's the only way to use it really.

Really? Do we have a full list anywhere? I called the Microsoft disability thingy and asked about documentation for the new skype, and they never got back to me. That suggests it either doesn't exist,

Thanks Joseph! Hopefully this will get some people to try it out. I still wish it would pop up a window for messages, because if I'm away from my computer when they come in, the way I tend to catch th

Thanks. I'll stick with either Foobar 2000 or VLC then. So far, Foobar is winning, except for all of the customization work you have to do setting up your own hotkeys.

Pretty much everything with NVDA, save some synthesizers and training materials that go beyond the user guide, is free. Here's focus highlighting. https://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/focusHighlight

Thanks! I appreciate the investigation. I need to mess with Foobar more though I kind of like it, but I'm keeping my options open. Plus I usually install VLC for videos, so it would probably be handy

I'm not sure if we can help you. Google says: "After you sign in and set up your screen reader, you can get details on all features in the Classroom Help Center." About screen readers, it says: "You c

Anybody got anything on this? I swear I saw a post about it, unless I'm confusing it with mail, a while back. At the time I didn't need a calendar/reminder program, and now I do. I figure if Windows h
