Microsoft has included the Ease of Access Settings in Windows 10 which are meant for the visually impaired people. As Microsoft believes, technology should be inclusive, they have integrated the Narrator and Magnifier feature for blind people and people with visual distortion respectively. The Narrator reads out every text on your PC aloud, including notifications, calendar appointments, alarm, alerts, so that the PC can be used with a display. Narrator has a set of keyboard shortcuts which can be of great help for users.
Narrator is available in Arabic (Egypt, Saudi Arabia), Catalan (Spain), Cantonese (Chinese Traditional), Czech, Danish (Denmark), Dutch (Netherlands, Belgium), English (United States, United Kingdom, India, Ireland), Finnish (Finland), French (France, Canada, Switzerland), German (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), Greek, Hindi, Hungarian, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Mandarin (Chinese Simplified and Chinese Traditional), Norwegian (Norway), Polish, Portuguese (Brazil, Portugal), Romanian, Russian, Slovak, Spanish (Spain and Mexico), Swedish (Sweden), Thai, Turkish (Turkey).
