Windows 10 clear text won’t stay on! (self.Blind)
submitted by FantasticWhit84
Is there a workaround to ensure that clear text will stay on? I’m so tired of having to turn it on and go through all of the prompts every time I start/restart my new computer! At first, I thought it was a ZoomText issue but quickly realized that wasn’t the case. I’m still getting used to being back on a Windows OS but I’m so happy to have a fully functioning ZoomText program back to meet my needs! I had previously posted about ZoomText issues on Mac and I finally had to break down and go back to PC.

I think ZoomText works better when Clear text is off, because it does its own font smoothing.

Definitely not what I’m experiencing at all, regardless of the program or app.

Yeah, You don't want font smoothing enabled when using ZoomText. What version of ZoomText you got?

I’m using ZoomText 2018. Like I said, when I keep Clear Text off, everything is almost unreadable. After enabling it each time, I’ll finally be able to resume my normal preferred screen settings, docked, and go on about my work. I can be on Windows, Chrome, Gmail, Word, etc., and all have the same issue. Unless there’s some new setting within ZoomText I’m unaware of that anyone can point me to to fix this, Windows needs to fix this glitch.
