I've only ever used Internet Explorer with JAWS. Which would be an 
easier browser to transition to, Firefox or Chrome?


Thanks,

I don't know anything specific about what the major update will include, but even if changes are minor, I really think it's time for people on earlier versions of Windows to come on forward. I use Windows 10 with Jaws and NVDA for work and leisure everyday.

Chrome can be used with ChromeVox, its own screen reader, or with whatever you're using on your own system.
