Re: Which version of Firefox Quantum works best with JAWS 2019?
Chris Hill
Not necessarily. Unfortunately the latest version has broken some controls, I think the thing I need to use that is now broken is a combo box. It doesn't work with nvda or jaws either one.

Personally, as much as I like Firefox, I believe I'll be forced into Chrome before all this is over.

Using latest 1803 version, Jaws 2019 and MS office 2016, what is the most efficient and Jaws friendly way to search the calendar for a past appointment? Used to do this on Office 2010 and have not since updating to Office 2016 but old way does not produce the same results. Googled this but did not find any good answered so before doing more advanced searches figured I’d check with the list.

You will now have to go to www.freedomscientific.com and find the download link to get the final release or wait until the DVD arrives in your mailbox. DVD will be shipping shortly. Original message:
