Accessibility

Hi, I’m new to avast 4 and I am very impressed so far. I do however have one concern. It seems that the main user interface in not accessible with a screen reader. The menu is accessible but I can’t activate the menu without clicking on the menu button. Is there a keyboard hotkey to activate the menu? If not, can this feature be included in the next release? This kind of accessibility is extremely important to our organization as some of our users are blind and make use of screen readers.

In simple user interface you can activate the menu with SHIFT+F10 (or with “local menu key” on Windows keyboard).

Please try avast 6 it should work much mutch better with your screen reader :slight_smile:

Do you really think it helpful to reply to a topic that is almost 8 years old ???

kariuro, do you use screen reader capabilities of avast? Is it working ok with screen readers?

kariuro responded to an 8 year old thread.

FYI – take a look at kariuro’s recent posts.

I’ve read that… But it could have a reason, did a search and try to help… who knows…

Avast free is working Ok with screen readers :slight_smile:
