Why oh why can I not get Dragon to work with any search engine I use? It used to work great with almost everything, and then, it was hit or miss. Now, it works with absolutely nothing. I'm a quadriplegic and I use this software to allow myself to be more independent and proficient while using a computer, however, now I find myself typing more and more, because Dragon is not effective anymore. Nuance, as a company, has dropped the ball and has left those of us that rely on your software to make our lives easier because we are disabled, has added to the complications of our everyday lives, in that we can't do our jobs in a timely manner anymore because it is taking 2 to 3 times longer to complete a simple task by not being able to use add-ons for Internet searching, as well with other programs that we deem necessary to be productive in our daily lives. Please, please, please… Figure out what is wrong with your software and fix it. Many of us would appreciate your cooperation

I am a disabled Dragon user and am extremely frustrated with the lack of compatibility in both Edge and the new Outlook 365 UX. I love the new look and feel of Outlook, but have to constantly use the dictation box and cannot useany voice commands for email management. I had to revert back to the 2019 style interface just to delete messages by voice. Please work together to improve interoperability!

I agree with Michael, I use programs for appraisal, construction and home Inspections in the passed your program worked great for me. However, something has changed, and now it screws up my programs every time I try to use it; total waste of money. I should have just kept the old version.
