Task Bar in Windows 11
Jerry Berrier
I am using JFW 2022, and I just upgraded to Windows 11. (Probably not a wise move) If I hit Windows-t to go to the task bar, I can arrow right or left to go through the items on the task bar. If I hit enter or space bar on one of them, it usually does nothing. If I go back into the task bar and do it again, the app opens. With Windows 10, I used to also be able to use first letter navigation. Open the task bar, hit c for calendar, then Enter. First letter navigation does not seem to work in Windows 11. I also tried it with NVDA and Narrator. Same result. Any thoughts?

Re: having trouble signing into Bard on my windows ten computer.

Jim, true most sites have the forgot “password” link. I guess Bard, bypasses that link and as Judy stated, you just need to change it. At least to change it they don’t, I hope want you to enter the old one for verification purposes? LOL.

Re: Jaws Screen Reader cost?.
Gerald Levy
And maybe if this list didn't have an absentee owner/moderator, there wouldn't be so much complaining about threads that drift off topic and turn into chit chat discussions that have nothing to do with JAWS. If the owner/moderator doesn't want to bother moderating this list, then he should turn it over to somebody who will.

Re: Jaws Screen Reader Changing subject lines
David Diamond
Muting the topic does not always solve the problem. I just gage who it is coming from and respond accordingly. If they are a chronic complainer, the delete key gets a workout. I tried just putting them in the block senders list but, often that blocks the entire group not the sender.

Hello, I just randomly read this post. This subject line has been up for days, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't have time to read every single post on this busy list. So the couple I have read had nothing to do with Jaws cost. A lot of us could miss something that may be helpful to us if all of you would write a new post with the correct subject line. This is really frustrating, as I assume the subject line fits the message, which it doesn't anymore. Please stop this. Judy & Libby

Narrator sense one of win10 additions is more than enough to: Installing windows from scratch navigating through the windows initial setup and after the above its good to install other screenreaders from files, or even with internet browsing and downloading. BTW, English is not my 1st language, I find win10 tts voice with narrator just fine to understand. I'm probably not the only one who really didn't get what you need narrator to do more than the above.

It's actually considered rude not to give accurately descriptive titles, which this one was at the outset, when NEW topics are spun-off of an existing one. This is not new, it is not difficult, and it should be standard practice to start a new topic when you know you're actually doing just that, and giving it a title that's reflective of the actual content. This is not an, "I'm tired of this topic, please stop!!," complaint, which should be met with precisely what you said, "Mute it." It's concern that this particular topic has now covered a number of completely unrelated ones that could very well be of interest to the membership, many of whom may have already muted this particular topic long ago. -- 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: Jaws Screen Reader cost?.
Judy
Hello, I just randomly read this post. This subject line has been up for days, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who doesn't have time to read every single post on this busy list. So the couple I have read had nothing to do with Jaws cost. A lot of us could miss something that may be helpful to us if all of you would write a new post with the correct subject line. This is really frustrating, as I assume the subject line fits the message, which it doesn't anymore. Please stop this. Judy & Libby

Re: Windows 11 and Office 365 with Jaws issue
Madison Martin
I'm not at all comfortable even attempting to do this, wish there was some other solution that doesn't involve uninstalling and re-installing programs, doing this for Jaws was hard enough using Narrator.

Microsoft Outlook becomes unresponsive and needs to be restarted sometimes when I'm accessing IMAP folders, but that has been an issue for years. Under Windows 11 and JAWS 2022, it does seem to be more responsive in general (save for that long-standing bug).

If you cannot figure out narrator, then jaws must be way beyond your capabilities in that case,
Its not difficult to get your head around the basics of any screen reader, especially if you have used one before

People come on, do you really think NVDA or any other screen reader will recommend another one? As for Narrator, I still can’t get it to work without it not using any terminology close to the left mouse button or right mouse button. Why is that important? Because when I’ve got a newer computer, it is virtually impossible to use narrator to install any other screen reader. Thus sighted assistance is mandatory.

Well it's not behind their backs. I have brought it up on a NVDA list where maintainers monitor and post and they all demonstrated no interest in including Jaws shortcuts as a selection, and state that folks just have to get used to what they think is the best user interface. Glenn

David & his pack of dogs <myguidedogis@...>
Brian, generally when I want to comment on changing the subject line, which is rare like you, I put in the subject line the topic. I almost missed your post because you forgot to change it and I thought you were commenting on my inability to use Narrator when setting up JAWS. True the cost of Jaws subject has morphed into something completely different. My main reason for changing the subject line is, if I complain about it not being changed, I leave myself open for the same criticism. Smile.

Gentlemen, 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

Hi Steve, And the global commands extension addon does much of the heavy lifting. Cheers, Ed
