Hi Michael, This may not help but might be worth a try – Check which view your files are opening in. I like draft view and the shortcut for that is Alt +w then e. Sometimes that works. Cheers Zel

Re: The List
Mike B
Hi Pastor Gil,
Yes I am, and I've read a lot of crap that's
very 2 faced from people that if, the truth were told they wouldn't be looking
as good as what they're portraying. One truth is that the Jaws-Users linst
wouldn't have allowed this kind of talk about another list or other
people.
Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go dodgers! I believe that everything happens for a reason. Usually, the reason is that somebody screwed up.

Re: The List
For any Groups.io group, including this one, to independently locate the group and its addresses:
1. Go to the Groups.io Search page. 2. Navigate to the search box and enter your search terms, in this case try JAWS or JAWS Users, but you can use any word, words, or quote-enclosed phrase just like on any search. 3. All groups whose names or descriptions include your search terms are returned, arranged by name. 4. All group home pages are presented as links, that are also at heading level 5, so use your favored method to cruise through all headings at level 5, which will vary by screen reader. 5. Activate the link when you find what you think is the group of interest. 6. After reading whatever you may want to check out, probably the group description, use screen reader search to locate "Group Email Addresses". 7. The actual post, subscribe, unsubscribe, etc. addresses are presented as a list directly after the "Group Email Addresses" heading. Each address is a mailto link. The better you are about your initial search criteria when doing the search the less dross you'll have to slog through in terms of groups returned. If you search on something like, say, "horses" you are going to get many, many pages of results. If you use something like the phrase "Morgan Horses" (or any specific breed, enclosed in quotes) you'll get fewer, in the case of this particular example as of this writing, one. You can always add search terms and search again if you get too many results or remove a search term or two if what you gave gets you zero results. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 1903, Build 18362 Many of the insights of the saint stem from his experience as a sinner. ~ Eric Hoffer

A potential suggestion for the list:
Angel
When the old J F W lite list existed, its moderator
and owner, debbie Scales, deliberately found free programs which were Jaws
compliant. She shared them with the list. She died prior to the
advent of the Windows 7 release. Thus the list was never continued.
It would be nice if similar free programs might be found. To share
with the list.

Re: Jaws issue
Chris Hill
think you might have one more thing to try. Call Freedom Scientific. I suspect your problem is something nobody else is likely to solve for you. I haven't heard anyone mention it here before and all is well on my stuff.

Jaws issue
Michael Munn
Hi all, this is Michael. I'm currently experiencing an issue with Jaws in Word. Yestrerday, I asked my school's tech department to update my computer to the latest Windows 10 built 1903. After the update was completed, Jaws begin to act weird in Word. When I press the Left and right arrow key to read work by word instead of reading it, Jaws skip's them and read the next word proceeded to the word next to it. Some time, It won't read the next word period. I want to know what really cause Jaws to do this? My tech instructor and I tried every possible ways to troubleshoot and the issue still not resolved. here are the ways that we take to troubleshoot: · Open a series of documents in Word to make sure that it wasn’t one particular doc causing the problem. · and pasted text only into Word and this would work for a line or two. · Found a Windows 1903 packet that needed to be installed, downloaded and installed it. · Removed old downloads of JAWS, temp file cleanup, disk clean up. · Downloaded fresh JAWS install and ran a JAWS repair successfully. NVDA was able to, but not JAWS. We then opened Out look and did the same thing and Outlook can read the same text that I pasted from word with out any issue. All feed back are greatly appreciate it.

But you can do that without literally taking it offline. It's a simple matter to either lock the list and walk away if you want to encase the current content of the archive in amber and have it accessible for others (or at least members, if it was a private list) to search or to announce that you're walking away and the list is now unmoderated, making sure you throw open the permissions before you head out the door.

Re: The List
Cristóbal
Yeah… It just came off as a small and petty. Anyway… I think I’m going to hold off on joining. Who knows how many refugees from the old list will even hear about the new one. I’m guessing at first anyway, the majority of folks who join will be the same people on this blindtech and the other JFW list. Seriously… To just blow it up like that without even a heads up. There were probably a lot of folks on that list who need more help than others to find their way. Just to cast them out like that… Messed up. I believe that David guy is also a member of one or two other lists I belong too. Who knows if he’ll interact with them or if it was an entire withdrawal type of deal.
