The Accessibilities sub-menu
provides you with tools which are intended for users with vision,
hearing, or mobility impairments. As well, some features can be used by
anyone to help out with daily tasks (like the magnifier). You also have
the option to run the Accessibility Wizard to help you choose what
setting is best for you. This is the first available option under the
Accessibilities sub-menu; let’s take a look at the rest of the options.
