Hi, David. You probably want to change the behavior of the ENTER key in

Microsoft Edge to send a left mouse click, now that Microsoft Edge has been

fixed. This is because some elements on a web page expect a left mouse

click, and won't activate with a simple Enter command, especially links that

show up as headings in JAWS, and don't show up as a link.
