[Athen] Braille Display Drivers, Win10 Updates and JAWS

[Gregg, Tomas A]

Greetings,

 

I am in the research phase of looking for a new braille display to use in
our office. Part of the reason for this is our current Humanware Brailliant
BI40 (purchased back in 2013) braille display drivers get destroyed each
time during Windows Updates on Patch Tuesdays. This means once a month I
have to repair/re-install the drivers in order for the braille display to be
recognized by JAWS.

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue with their braille display, Windows
10 and JAWS 2018 or 2019? Are there any braille displays that people
recommend that don't have this problem with Windows 10 and JAWS?

 

Sincerely,

 

Tomas
