(Keywords: crash) 

If starting Nightly from the Windows 8 start menu with Narrator running, Nightly closes almost immediately again. Crash reporter does not come up. So we're probably not doing something right in our UIA implementation.

I'm not able to reproduce.

str:

1) launch metrofx
2) launch narrator
3) switch to the metrofx app

narrator doesn't know anything about our content, but I didn't experience a crash.
Jim, a blind person usually has Narrator running when starting MetroFX. ;) Try the STR the other way around, meaning start Narrator first, then MetroFX.

I tried this as well, still no crash. Will poke at it a bit to see if i can reproduce.
