Freedom Scientific announced today the compatibility of the latest updates of the JAWS® 16 screen reader and MAGic® 13 screen magnification software with Windows® 10. Windows 10 is scheduled to be released on July 29, 2015, and will be offered as a free upgrade for devices running Windows 8.1 or Windows 7.
“Over the past few months we have worked with Microsoft to ensure compatibility with Windows 10. The newest versions of JAWS and MAGic are ready for Windows 10, without the need for paid upgrades,” said Eric Damery, Vice President of Software Management at Freedom Scientific.
