No, just on occasion. However, I did try Control+shift, and
that fixed it. The problem is, I have to do this in every program I run. What's
up with that, I wonder?
Hello Annabell:
Does the problem you are having, happen on a
day-by-day basis, in every session of Windows you run?
Sincerely

I did try that, and that's when Alt, Control, and Shift
start behaving as though all three are being typed together with any other
key.
Hi, Annabelle. It's OK, some people are just
victims of corporate programming telling them they have to have the latest
greatest new thing to be functional safe happy adults. Even if that doesnt
make them act like one... Smiley Face.
I may have missed it but did you try
the ctrl + shift to disable alt gr?

you're not my father. I would appreciate if everybody please call me
Annabelle. So, back to where we started. What do I do to fix the Right Alt
key? Is there a way to make it behave like the Left Alt key? I mean, Left
and Right Shift keys behave the same for the most part. Why not the Alt
keys?
This is turning into a personal attack... Not
cool...

I agree with
Annabelle. Why use an electric stove, when cooking over an
open fire works. Why ride in a vehicle when you can ride on a
horse. Why ride a horse when you can walk. Why walk with shoes when
walking bare foot is cheaper. You get my meaning of course.
Some love living in the past which in some ways is not that bad.
Where it becomes bad is when they refuse to move forward in their thinking
and complain about everything new. To quote Annabelle, I am not
changing my colours for anyone. One should not complain about the health
of a horse when they know it is very old. They should also not complain
and expect the old horse to still function like a younger horse. Brian, I
think you need to help Annabelle and
do like some dog trainers do. Take the clients money then tell them
their dog is beyond hope and they should just put him or her down.
Not even for
yourself? I too was a big fan of XP and am currently a Windows 7
user, but I know that all good things must come to an end and so I will
have to move on to Windows 10. They say that it is better and more
stable, but there is a learning curv and the older I get, I just don’t
have time for that. I wish that if something was not broken, that no
one would fix it. By the way, When did this topic get
hijacked?

I agree with Brian,
Windows 7 is a thing of the past and you really should make the jump to
Windows 10 whenever it is that you get a new computer. Besides the fact
that Windows 7 will have no more support in less than a year, Windows 10
at least by now is so superior to Windows 7 in almost any way, crashes
which I had on a very regular bases with Windows 7 are probably reduced by
95% in Windows 10, it’s Stabil and fast and as Brian also said, all
screenreader support and development is for Windows 10. You may like
things others don’t have, but really, a floppy drive, I mean why on earth
would you want a floppy drive? If you have old floppies put what’s on them
on a USB stick or an external drive or a DVD, but I’m really curious what
the point of one is?
Also, you would be much
better off with a 500 Gb or so SSD as your main system drive, then add a
good quality hard drive with a larger capacity if you need lots of
storage, the system performance will be double or better overall and if
you want a fast system you really do need an SSD or your hard drive
becomes the proverbial bottle neck in your nice new
machine.

Sieghard
Windows 7 is what I use, so even if support ends, I'll still be
happy with what I have.

The end of support for
Windows 7 is also now only 8 months away, so it makes no sense, if one is
going to continue into the future under the Windows ecosystem, to use
Windows 7.
The folks that develop JAWS and other screen readers
aren't going to "instantly" drop support for Windows 7, but it will
eventually be dropped, and probably much faster than support for XP and
Vista were dropped during the Windows 7/8/early-10 era given the changes
in the underlying architecture of Windows.
