You do have to uninstall Jaws 15 since it is incompatible.  You have to have
at least Jaws 16.

His is not true; they are incorrect.  I have been using Windows 10 since
September, and I started with Jaws 16.  There are some inaccessible
components.  For example, the Edge browser is not accessible with Jaws, and
the calculator does not seem to be accessible.  I heard it said that the
Edge browser is accessible with NVDA, but I have not yet tried it.  Good
luck.

Warm regards,

I just got off of the phone with the Microsoft Help desk regarding
accessability. I spooke with Url who informed me that JAWS still isn't
compatible with Windows 10. When I tried to download Windows 10 last night,
it prompted me to uninstall both Freedom Scientific & open book. This is why
I called Microsoft regarding this issue. If anyone out there knows of a work
around, please share it. 

 

Also, I was told that the free upgrade for windows 10 will be available
until July 2017. I hope this has helped some of you.
