Windows Enhanced 1.0.5

  by GW Micro This app has not been rated. XML Feed for Windows Enhanced 1.0.5

This app provides enhancements to Microsoft Windows, including:

Start Menu Enhanced Navigation (Windows 8 Only)

  • Insert Left/Right - Move forward and backward between groups.
  • Insert Up/Down - Move up and down through the items in a group logically.
  • Insert Home/End - Move to the first and last items in a group respectively.
  • Control-Insert-Tab - Displays a dialog containing all of the start menu items in a tree view.

    • Toasts and Balloon Tips

  • Toast window messages (such as those from installing apps, or inserting media that causes autoplay to run) are announced automatically. In addition, both toasts and balloon tip messages are saved so that you can review them at any time, using the Toast and Balloon Tip History option in the Windows Enhanced app menu. You also have the option to route the mouse to toasts and balloon tips automatically so all you have to do is a single left click to perform the default action.

    • Audio Support and Mute options

  • Windows Enhanced also provide you with the ability to enable audio support in safe mode. When enabled, your audio device will be enabled so that Window-Eyes can speak if you boot into Safe Mode (note: some audio hardware does not support this feature).
  • You can also use Insert-M (by default) to toggle the master volume's mute property on and off.
