George, Did you say you are using Jaws 2018?
In my 2018, jaws-key, which is really the insert key, plus numpad 3, gives me just the total number of items in that folder. While, insert plus numpad 8, or the tab key give me the item number and the total number of items.
It is the same in 2019. I just checked with both versions. So, that must be a settings issue somewhere, but I really don't know where that setting might be.

All that does is tell me the number of Item and that 1 is selected.
It does not tell me which number the Item is of how many there are...thanks.

Hi George,

Will Jaws key + 3 / Page Down, on the numpad work for you?
Take care. Mike. Go Rams!

Nope! Not for me in JAWS 2018...

For me both Jaws Key+Tab as well as a simple say line, Jaws

It does not read it when you simply arrow down or up through the
list of files.

I went to my "my documents" folder and pressed insert+tab and this is
what

I
heard:
Not Selected 2016Low-Vision Expo images‎8/‎22/‎2018 ‏‎5:29 AM File
folder

1
of 885

Jaws 2019, Windows 10

But, Window-Eyes would have read the index number automatically.

I also have this situation. It appears that somehow a maximum of 13
is the count in any Folder where I have many additional files.

If I pres Enter + T it reads the file name and whatever it's place in 13.
And, when I press Enter + Tab I hear the same.

Thanks.

In most cases, insert+tab will read the current item, plus how many

I hope this works in your case.

I used to use window eyes. It would read the number if items in a
folder after reading off a file name. Is there a way to do this in
jaws? Right now jaws only reads item names in file explorer not how
many items there afterwards

Thanks
