Hi Karen,
 
Are you running Windows 10 or 11?  I forget which OS version you're running.

Hi Mike,

How do I get it to run in the system tray?

Hi Karen,

 

If you don't run Jaws from the system tray this is normal, but if you do run Jaws from the system tray it is not. 

 

If you have Jaws set to run from the system tray try unloading Jaws and reloading, now see if you can access the menues by arrowing after pressing, Insert + J.

 

 

Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

I must have something set up differently. I can press insert plus j and it brings up the jaws window and reads the current version, like it would as a heading. It won’t let me get to the menus this way unless I press alt h. Is there a setting I need to change in Jaws?

Hi Karen,

 

Press, Insert + J, up arrow to, Help submenu, press enter, up arrow to, About, press enter and this is where you'll find the info you're looking for.

 

 

Stay safe and take care.  Mike.

Yes, for some reason all it tells me is the version and my number.

Hi Jean,
When I press insert j it only gives me the version number. I'm not able to up arrow at all.

Hi Karen!

You should be able to go to the about JAWS dialog and it will tell you how many upgrades you have left.

1. insert+J to open the JAWS context menu 2. press up arrow two time to get to the about option 3. press enter 4. press insert+alt+W to virtualize the dialog, this makes it easy to browse what it says.
or you could switch to the JAWS cursor by pressing the numeric keypad - key.
