Re: JAWS freezes in Google DOcs
I agree that JAWS 2022 is better than 2021 but 2022 still has the problem. Since it appears to only affect Chromium based browsers, we believe it is because of something that the Chromium engine is

Re: JAWS freezes in Google DOcs
JaWS 2021 for me was almost unusable.
2022 works a lot better.
Thanks,

Re: JAWS freezes in Google DOcs
This sounds like a problem several people, including me, have noted. JAWS isn't freezing, it is loosing the focus, this seems to only happen in Edge and Chrome. And as far as I know, there is no fix

Hi, Karen. Here is more about the "Show Virtual Viewer on screen" check box, and about the Virtual Viewer itself. It comes from JAWS Help, Basic Settings, in the training help, Using JAWS.

If it is not in the System Tray, there may be other things that are going on to get it there. You may have to contact Tech Support at Freedom Scientific. It that doesn’t help fix the problem,

Re: checking the box for system tray
Hi,
Did you press ALT + F4 and restart JAWS?
After you restart JAWS, see if it is now in the System Tray.

Re: removing column and/or row titles in excel
the most direct way is
1. Open JAWS utilities on the JAWS screen
2. Arrow all the way down to 'explore my settings"
3. Open personalized settings.
4. Navigate to the file that has the same name as
