Ease of Access Center mainly includes the following tools:

To input data into your computer using a mouse, joystick, or other pointing devices instead of a physical
keyboard, you can use On-Screen Keyboard.

• High Contrast

High Contrast is a feature that heightens the color contrast of some text and images on your screen. As a
result, those items are more distinct and easier to identify.

• Personalized keyboard

Adjust keyboard settings to make your keyboard easier to use. For example, you can use your keyboard
to control the pointer and type certain key combinations easier.
