Another way of expressing this is that F5 refreshes the screen. It isn't something you turn off.

Let me add that I typically follow F5 with the JAWS command insert-escape. In describer mode, JAWS calls this "repainting" the screen. To my way of thinking, it functions as a JAWS refresh.

And what is the easiest way to turn off screen refresh? Thank you for your help.

In my humble experience, turning off the screen refresh will solve the
problems described below. I just press the F5 manual refresh command
when I need to, and that seems to work fine.

Yeah, not sure. It's a very useful command, but, it seems that
sometimes when web content is dynamic (iE, changing/refreshing/moving
regularly) it does not work. That's just my theory. I use this command
all the time but I know on the main page for a local food/restaurant
delivery service for instance, I cannot use this command to find a
restaurant on the page, and that's just one example. Not sure there is
a "fix" per se ... guess you could turn off automatic page refresh and
see what happens, but then you may run into other problems with a site.

Hi,

I Use JAWS 2019 with Chrome. Sometimes, when you perform a find
command [either with control+insert+f or with insert+f], JAWS
immediately says that there are no matching results. This is even
though I know for a fact that there are matching results on the page.
How can I fix this?
