Hello; although you didn't say what model of computer your friend is using,
it sounds like you need to change the behavior of the function keys.

using a dell computer, you can,
1, go to desktop,
2, hold down the FNKey,
now press the escape key.
now try the keystroke insert+f4.
you can also do, FNKey+insert+f4.




The impossible is the untried, Never under estimate the power of a dream.

Yes, I have already tested this one and it works as expected. I just
wanted Insert+F4 command to somehow work, but no success so far.

Hi Surendra,

When you alt tab to the JAWS screen/application, try alt F4 and see if you
get the shut down command.

Hi all,

I hope this Email finds you all in good spirit.

My friend has recently purchased a laptop equipped with Windows10.
Since he is not that tech savvy, he wanted me to install his prefered apps
and do all the necessary settings according to his liking. I installed JAWS
and NVDA successfully; however, I was unable to perform the Insert+F4
command to quit JAWS by any means, even when setting keyboard layout to
laptop. As I hit Caps lock+F4, JAWS speaks "Windows+P" and opens a
projection listbox with 4 options like, "Computer only," "Extend" etc. I
tried the same via an external USB keyboard, but to no avail. Besides,
Application key for bringing up a context menu is non-functional, I can
easily launch the same with
Shift+F10 though. Now, it really makes me wonder why such a strange is
happening. Your tips and tricks will be highly appreciated.
