Hi Dave,
Just tried with NVDA on my windows laptop and it works fine for me.
Don't think I've changed anything from the default on windows explorer.
However, I do notice that the menu bar in windows explorer seems weird in
Windows 10.
The ribbon seems completely different to other applications.
And I can arrow straight out of the ribbon and into the file list?
Tim

Subject: [vicsireland] File Explorer Question
Hi All,
I have a question about being able to get information about files in File
Explorer on Windows 10.
On my old Windows 7 machine, I could arrow right from the file name and it
would tell me the date the file was last edited. Another arrow right told me
the file type, word, excel, text document or indeed file folder.
On Windows 10, as far as I can tell, I have detailed view selected, and have
tried others, but can't get this information. Is there a way to get this
information in Windows 10?
If I use Narrator, it reads the file name followed by that information, but
all in one string of speech, as opposed to arrowing to it. But Jaws and NVDA
don't give me the info at all.
Also, NVDA says "check box checked", Narrator says "selected", but Jaws does
not give this. Is there a way to toggle the check boxes on and off, and if
they are on, why is Jaws not reading them.
I have Jaws 2019 and up to date NVDA.
Many thanks,
Dave
