Subject: [WebAIM] VS.NET 2017 inaccessible Installation UI

Has anyone on this list run into zero accessibility with the Visual Studio
.NET 2017 Community edition installation screens?



I have tried the installation on Windows 10 Pro in a virtual machine. JAWS
18 only announces the window title. Nothing else is announced on the screen
where to select the components to be installed or the next screen after
that.



I was not sure if JAWS 18 is lacking certain features to interact with this
UI. I noticed that in my virtual machine JAWS 18 OCR is not installed due to
lack of video drivers.



I would like to know if anyone faced such an issue on a real physical
machine. Either way, the UI should be keyboard accessible. Microsoft cannot
brag about accessibility and disregard this main factor in its application.
