Never mind, figured it out.- That, while great for you, won't help others who may come upon this topic looking for answers themselves. Thus, I'll offer the followng tutorial, written by Bill White: Creating a Desktop Shortcut for a Program/App Under Windows 10 by Bill White Steps 1 through 8 create a permanent desktop shortcut to the AppsFolder. This is optional. If you prefer not to do this, then you can simply hit WinKey+R, then enter shell:Appsfolder, then hit enter and continue at step 10. 1. Go to your desktop and make sure nothing is selected. To do this: press CONTROL plus SPACE, then JAWS (or other screen reader) should say, “Not Selected.” If you need to, hit CTRL+SPACE again. 2. Press Applications/Menu Key or SHIFT plus F10, and Arrow down to the New Submenu, then press ENTER. 3. ARROW down to Shortcut then press ENTER. 4. When it asks you to type the location of the shortcut, type: %windir%\explorer.exe shell:Appsfolder 5. TAB to the Next button then press ENTER. 6. When it asks for a name for the shortcut, press the DELETE key then type: AppsFolder 7. TAB to the Finish button, then press ENTER. 8. Now, on your desktop, you will have a shortcut that reads: AppsFolder 9. If you press ENTER on the AppsFolder shortcut, a special Windows system folder will open containing all of your apps. 10. Use First-letter Navigation to find and select the app for which you want the shortcut on your desktop. 11. Hit the Applications/Menu Key, or SHIFT+F10, down arrow to Create Shortcut, then press ENTER. 12. When it tells you that a shortcut can’t be created here, and it asks if you want a shortcut on the desktop, press ENTER on Yes. 13. That’s it. Now you will have a shortcut for your chosen app on the desktop. If you followed steps 1 through 8, there will also now be a shortcut to the AppsFolder on your desktop, you’d just pick up at step 9 rather than step 1 the next time you need a desktop shortcut for an app. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 Science has become just another voice in the room; it has lost its platform.

Re: Putting computer to sleep
By the way, and I don't care what the issue is, it absolutely never, ever hurts to try the following:
Using DISM (Deployment Imaging Servicing and Management) and SFC (System File Checker) to Repair Windows 8 & 10 I'd suggest that, now, as a first step to see if it may clear up the problem. -- Brian - Windows 10, 64-Bit, Version 21H2, Build 19044 Science has become just another voice in the room; it has lost its platform.

Re: Putting computer to sleep
Paul,
Thanks. That's one differential diagnostic down. Next is what graphics driver is being used for your display and what graphics hardware (e.g., Radeon R7 [AMD], NVidia, Intel) is being used?

Assuming that you are running a recent version of Jaws and are using Adobe Reader to open the PDF file, Jaws will perform an automatic OCR and attempt to read the context of the document to you.
I know that Jaws 2021 and 2022 will do the automatic OCR. I am not certain how far back you need to go when this feature was built into the program.
I had this problem in the past and FS had me perform a Jaws repair and the problem was resolved. Jaws recognizes that the PDF is a scanned image and attempts to perform an OCR to read the context of the image to you.

Greetings everyone:
I thought it might be helpful to the group if I passed along a solution for managing website favorites which works across all of the Windows browsers I have worked with over the years: Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome, and Microsoft Edge.
First, I created a folder within My Documents called Favorites. There is nothing magical about the name of the folder. You can call it anything you like. This is where you would store any Favorite that you create.
Second, using Edge or any other browser, go to the web page for which you would like to create a favorite or shortcut. Press ALT+D or CTRL+L (it really doesn't matter) to move the focus to the address bar. Since the URL contained in the address bar is already highlighted (selected), press CTRL+C to copy the URL to the Windows Clipboard.
With File Explorer, open the Favorites folder you have created. Press CTRL+SPACE a couple of times to ensure that nothing is selected. JAWS should tell you when the line item is not selected.
Now, press Shift+F10 to open up a context menu and up arrow to New. Press right arrow to open the submenu and press down arrow to Shortcut. Press Enter.
Paste the URL you copied earlier into the edit field and tab once to type a name for the Shortcut. Then, press Enter.
That's all there is to it. Any time you want to manage or go to a favorite, use File Explorer first to locate the favorite and then press Enter to activate it.
Cordially,
Curtis Chong

Re: Del computer service
Mike B.
Hi Fred,
Go to the , Control Panel / Sounds /
Playback
Highlight the soundcard, then tab to, Properties, and
press the spacebar to open.
Control tab to the Enhancements or Advanced tab, now tab
through to turn off any bass boost or audio enhancements settings.
I don't know what options you'll have, but once you're in
the right area you can experiment to see what sounds best for you.
Stay safe and take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool
