Greetings Marie:

I do not understand why some folks are having this issue with Chrome. I do
understand that this is indeed a real issue for those folks where this is
happening.

This is not a universal issue for all Chrome users, however. Also, I am
wondering if people can try this with something like Narrator or NVDA to see
if the behavior changes.

I myself cannot get to the menus with Narrator, but with NVDA/JAWS, the
menus work for me, including getting to my book marks in Chrome.

Warmly,

Curtis Chong

I just opened Chrome and find that I can not get to the bookmarks with any
of the keystrokes previously mentioned. It has been so reliable and simple
to get to the list with Alt+f+b but now no luck. I did see right away that
the "show Bookmarks bar" was not checked so I checked it but still no luck.
I closed Chrome and re-opened with the same problem and the show bookmarks
bar was once again unchecked. I am running Win 11, jaws 2022.

Hi, Tom. Have you restarted your computer since you began having trouble
with ALT plus F taking you to the help file in Chrome?

Hello.

I assume you mean control shift O for accessing the bookmark list, rather
than control shift OTC.

When I press control shift O, I do get a bookmark list, but is more complex
than the one I used to get with alt F followed by the letter B.

The new list has more actions with each bookmark, and is rather difficult to
navigate consistently with Jaws.

If anyone has any clarifications on this, or any other work-arounds, I'd
greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

Tom Behler

Hello, everyone.

Up until today, I could easily access my bookmark list in Google

Chrome when in the main search window by pressing alt F and then B for

bookmarks.  Once there, it was very easy to arrow down or use

first-letter navigation to get to the bookmark I was looking for.

Now, wheneber I hit alt F, I land in a help menu, and have to

physically navigate to my bookmark list by using my arrow keys.

I'm not sure what has changed or why.

I'm also not sure how to get things to function the way they

previously did.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you!
