Re: using Power Chute with JAWS
Mario
thanks Chris. I lost mine a few years ago because I didn't think installing PCPE would be useful and accessible.

but now that I replaced the battery, I see the version of the program is 3.1 and considered to give it a try.

Access to the NextDoorsite
Justin Mcdevitt
Hello Group,
For a number of years, I have been a member of the Nextdoor.com neighborhood site, specific to my immediate neighborhood and surrounding neighborhoods. Until recently, I have been able to post messages to the site which I attempted to do e arlier this morning. However, as soon as I opened the message link, and tabbed to the subject field, Jaws stopped speaking. Nonetheless, I tabbed to the message body field and began composing a message. Again, JAWS was silent, so I could not read the content of what I was writing. I have been using Google Chrome for a couple of months. Could this be a Google issue, or do I need to do a JAWS repair, try a different browser or is Nextdoor no longer accessible as it has been, necessitating bringing this to their attention. I would guess that some of the US members have and do use this site. Any help is appreciated.
Peace to all, Justin

Creating a group in outlook
Justin Mcdevitt
Hello Group, Up until recently, I had no real reason to create groups from my Contacts using Outlook. However, at this point, I’m involved with a number of activities within my community where this feature is something that would be convenient as a contact option. I had spoken with Bill White about this and rather to use the ribbon commands, he suggested using Control/Shift/L where I create a group name. After identifying a group name, I tabbed one time to the Members Table field, arrowing down to identify contacts to fill the group. At this point, I received a message that “Members list table is unavailable.” Am I on the right track, or it there another way to build a group?
Best, Justin

i found a bug regarding jaws+f10 running task list
mike mcglashon
Hey guys:
I found a bug in jaws2021, That, if I hit jaws+f10, Jaws only lists the running tasks in the same desktop where jaws is loaded;
This came up because I use multiple desktops, and, Jaws is only loaded in one of them;
Also, I do not believe that this bug is only for jaws2021, I believe this has been a phenomenon in even older versions;
It looks to me as if jaws never contemplated people using multiple desktops in windows 10;
Please advise as you like.
Mike M.

I clicked on one, and it was the search button. I typed in
something, and the search results were all unlabeled.

This is one reason I encourage people to think long and hard before disabling this sort of thing. Sometimes, it's just fine, but at others it allows you to accidentally trigger something with a single key press and never know that you've triggered it. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.

And the straight delete function will delete all existing messages in a conversation if the "parent/root" message is selected, whether the conversation is expanded or not.

When I select a root message in a conversation, and hit delete, I get a dialog box that says, "Delete applies to all items in this folder that are part of the conversation," with a checkbox for "Don't show this message again," and Delete selected messages and Cancel buttons. This presumes, of course, that conversation view is in use. -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.

Smart Navigation Mode
clarence carter
I notice that Smart Navigation mode does not work in some HTML E-mails in Outlook.
I have to move out of the E-mail and go back to get it to work. Then there are times when it works with no problem. I have it set to controls and tables.
Any ideas?

Re: FW: is there a way to delete messages with the same subject all at once?
Cohn, Jonathan
Current versions of Outlook usually have a "ignore function that will delete the conversation and move replies to that conversation to some place other than the Inbox. I don't remember if Ignore /mute functionality in Outlook is configurable (Sorry too many mail clients). But for me it shows up as the first item in the home ribbon when reading a message.
