? Hi Addison
Press JAWS + Control+ V (for Victor) twice quickly from within Firefox. This will present the version information in the virtual viewer so you can copy it using standard text editing commands.
All the best.

Hello there I’m asking how can I get what version of firefox I’m using to copy clipboard so I can tell you all what version of firefox I have ? I hope you understand what I’m asking Addison

Cohn, Jonathan via groups.io
Hello, I'm not sure what you are asking here. Are you wanting a specific version of Firefox for your computer? Generally, Firefox will automatically upgrade about every 6 weeks. There are ways to reduce this or prevent automatic updates, and there are also ways to download a specific version of Firefox though generally, I would recommend against doing that.

In the latest JAWS update, I suppose you know that you can use the JAWS quick keys within a Google document to move to and speak comments. But I see that you can't actually explore the text of the comment word by word or letter by letter. If this is new to you, press the layered command INSERT+SPACE then G. To hear your choices for commands, press question mark. Kind regards, Curtis Chong

Re: Success with win 11 and Jaws 2021
Randy Barnett <blindmansbluff09@...>
yes that's correct. But at this point in time most people don't have any use for legacy mode. And I did have to enable secure boot and tPM. But what's weird is after I turned off legacy mode and turned on the Otother two options. my computer boots in about 10 seconds. It is way faster. before I made those three changes it was taking almost a minute to boot and I was really disappointed with the boot speeds after they replace the motherboard that was defective. but now it's awesome! I'm not sure why this is. Other than Legacy mode is just slow.

Re: Firefox version 91.2 Jaws2021
Curtis Chong
Greetings:
Not all browsers behave identically. It is certainly more than a simple question of branding. I myself often toggle between Microsoft Edge (Chromium) or Google Chrome with occasional forays into Mozilla Firefox. On my system, Firefox seems to have a problem if, for example, I bring up a list of 600 books in BARD with all of the books displayed on a single page. Google Chrome loads a bit more quickly. Microsoft Edge often generates these verbal alerts telling me that the page is still downloading. Google Chrome does not do this nor does Firefox.
In the end, it all comes down to which performance characteristics you, the user, find helpful and which ones you don’t. Since I do a lot with Google Workspace and Google Meets, Chrome is my “go to” for most (but not all) things.
Kind regards,
Curtis Chong

Re: Firefox version 91.2 Jaws2021
Hi, All three are Chromium-based browsers, Google Chrome included. The differences lies in branding, purpose, and features they add on top of base Chromium code – Chrome and Edge are optimized for services from Google and Microsoft, respectively. Cheers, Joseph

A fresh (and you do need fresh) copy of the Media Creation Tool (MCT) will actually bear the name of the Version of Windows it builds the ISO for as part of it's name. I note in several of my tutorials: "The naming convention for the tool is MediaCreationTool9999.exe, where the 9999 will actually be the Windows 10 Version number for which media will be fetched." And I always encourage anyone who may happen to have a Windows 10 ISO that the downloaded, even for the current version, one month or more ago to get a fresh copy using the MCT if they need to use it again. The components used to create the ISO file are updated on a regular basis, and it actually saves you at least some download time (if you choose to download recent updates as part of your install) because fewer of those updates will not already be part and parcel of the ISO as built. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H1, Build 19043 It is the function of creative men to perceive the relations between thoughts, or things, or forms of expression that may seem utterly different, and to be able to combine them into some new forms--the power to connect the seemingly unconnected. ~ William Plomer

Re: Restarting JAWS
Sieghard Weitzel <sieghard@...>
And instead of changing the keystroke you can always add a new one for the same function, instructions on how to change a keystroke were already given, adding one is the same, find the function you want in the keyboard manager and instead of selecting "Change keystroke" select "Add keystroke" and a duplicate record of the function will be created and you can assign a second key combination.

If Jaws locks up for some reason the first keystroke you should try is the Jaws restart command which first unloads Jaws and then reloads it. The fact Jaws is gone does not necessarily mean it has completely unloaded so this is always my first option. The keyboard shortcut is Jaws Key + Windows Key + F4, if you try this in a normal place like when Jaws is running and you are on the desktop or whatever you will find that after about 8 or 10 seconds Jaws restarts. If Jaws has locked up I usually give it at least 20 or 25 seconds to see if it sorts itself out, if not then you can manually reload Jaws.
