And you could always go to your bank and if that is not possible call them as they may be able to do it over the phone with you.

You might consider Amazon’s Visa card. The only accessibility issue there for me was the combo boxes. As I recall, the solution is not to press enter at the combo box, which I normally do, but just alt-down arrow. Then arrow down to your choice, leave it selected, then press the PC cursor twice quickly to exit.

Whatever you do, avoid any credit card issued by Synchrony Bank. Its statements are completely inaccessible. Unfortunately, it’s the bank PayPal uses. PayPal itself is fine.

Hello List,

I need to apply for my first credit card soon.

I was what everyone recommended as far as accessibility of application completion and websites that work best with Jaws and Chrome.

Thanks,

Hi all,
I am unable to load Basic HTML view in Gmail. It says temporary error.
Tried on 2 laptops and on Chrome as well as on firefox. The problem
persists with my other account as well. What could be the issue?

The web site I’m looking at is:

www.astronautix.com.

The images are links, so I can enter on them and the image pops up

Are they just images on web pages? If so, can you give  one or two website addresses as examples?

Whether you can even save them depends on whether the website creator has allowed this, there are websites where you can't save images. If you can it can be sometimes hit and miss, but generally speaking you would have to be on the image, then press Shift + F10 and see if there is an option called "Save Picture".

I should add, that even windows 10 cannot protect itself when it is not booted up.
When one boots to WinPE, you are in windows, but not your windows, it is just like pulling out your hard drive and plugging it into another computer, only to make things easier for people, it calls your old C: drive c:, and the windows you are operating in is using X:.

Well I've never tried it with windows 10, but it works with 7.
I think another good way that would work well, but I haven't tried this for
backing up, is to boot to WinPE and go into administrative tools and storage
and make a VHD image of the C: drive.
You again would not want to include pagefile.sys and hiberfil.sys in this,
as it would just take up a lot of unnecessary space.
BTW, VHD is for virtual hard drive, which is a single file that acts like a
partition or separate drive.
That is what hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys are, VHD files, and that is
ultimately how windows makes backup images, if one looks in system volume
information, you will find a large VHD file.
You should also be able to use something like Macrium Reflect Restore or
possibly partition guru to restore the Windows VHD files.

Fascinating. What os? I can't imagine win 10 allowing that considering that you can't even access some files without changing permissions.

Have you ever tried to restore that? Frankly, I don't think you are getting it all, that sounds like a nice way to back up all the files on the system, but that isn't the same thing as an image.

There are two files that don't need to be zipped when doing this, because they are just windows temporary files, and they are typically as big as the amount of RAM your system has.
They are hiberfil.sys and pagefile.sys
They are both in the C: root, and cannot be deleted while your version of windows is running, but if you boot to WinPE you can delete them, and then proceed to make an image of the C: drive.
Then when you reboot, windows will recreate these files.

Hi list members, i want to make a system image, but i’m not sure which program that i should use. Are there any accessible programs that are built in that we could use to make a system image? I want to use this for my c drive. What program is built in that does this with accessibility for the blind built in. Thank you for any information that you might have concerning this question.

Hello:

Well, I’d say that most of it is accessible to nonvisual users. Very few things we can’t do with it which mot folks wouldn’t use anyway.

And it sounds like you are still using Windows 7 so I would say until you fully test this with Windows 10 and 11 now that people are starting to upgrade a safer option is to go with one of the many utilities out there who are made for this.
Even if it did work with Windows 10/11 there are many who may not feel like going through the steps of making this talking WinPE disk or drive and then using 7Zip which again most standard users don't have or need since Windows has a built-in zip utility and to then exclude these 2 other files you mention and so on.
This may be what you prefer because you enjoy tinkering with it, but I think most users want to run a utility which does the job and be done with it. I started out with computers probably around the same time as you or maybe even earlier and remember the days when all sorts of little tricks and modifications made things a little better, but I now sure enjoy an experience where I can basically install Windows out of the box without having to do a lot of stuff other than maybe changing a couple of things in File Explorer options, turning off fast startup or putting my user folder on the desktop etc.
