Hi James,

If what you are saying is that you want to be able to shut down with a single keystroke rather than having to take intermediate steps such as pressing Windows key+x then u, one option might be to change what the power button does. You can set it to perform various actions such as sleep, shut down or hibernate. On my laptop, you can configure it to do different things depending on whether it is running on battery or mains power. Probably the easiest way to find the options is to go into Control Panel, and type "power" without quotes into the search box. Then press tab until you hear "Change what the power buttons do" and press enter. Cheers, Ed

Re: Issues with Jaws 2018 losing focus in Firefox 60.x
Hello,Cristobal.
I have once experienced this on a laptop with a missing display driver. I installed the required display driver and the problem was solved. It may or may not be related.
Thanks.
Kind regards. Hanif

Re: Deleting wireless profile
Nino dagostino
Hello:
I called the Microsoft answer desk and learned that you have to have the network active before you can delete it.
I had a wireless profile on the computer but it was not connected so there wasknow option to remove the connection.
When we connected the connection then the forget button showed up.
Thank you.

Hi Kevin ,

Not sure why its not doing it, as it’s a standard windows 10 key stroke. Just to check you are holding down the windows key whilst pressing x, is that correct? On on my PC when I do this jaws says context menu, then pressing the cursor keys up or down lists the quick access menu options I mentioned.

Issues with Jaws 2018 losing focus in Firefox 60.x
Cristóbal
Hello list, I’ve asked this question before, but am really noticing it more and more these past few days. Using the latest Firefox 60.X and Jaws 2018, Jaws focus seems to be going blank every few seconds. It doesn’t’ matter if I’m actively navigating the page or if it’s just passively there. Jaws will just say blank and maybe speak the title of the page I’m on, but there’s no feedback if I arrow around or use the navigation keys. I can get focus back easy enough by maximizing the window or pressing tab/shift plus tab or alt plus tab out of the window, but for one thing, it’s annoying as all get out and it’s occurring so much now, it’s becoming quite disruptive. This has more or less been there for a while now, but either I’m really just getting tired of having to deal with it and am simply noticing it more or it is as I feel, picking up more in frequency. One thing I have noticed is that when I get a sound alert from an incoming email from Outlook for example, Jaws will lose its focus. To be clear, this also happens just randomelly as well, but it’s pretty consistent with this incoming email alert correlation. Anyone else dealing with this problem? I emailed VFO a while back and got the standard “we’re not experiencing this. It could be your set up.” Response. I’m dealing with a similar issue in Outlook 2016, but that’s for another email. Anyway, please tell me I’m not the only one fighting with these Jaws focus issues… Thanks, Cristobal
