Keyboard manager is insert 8 on the number row, but I just went into it, and insert is there, but when I try to add a keystroke, my insert isn't seen as a keystroke. You would find insert by pressing I and down arrowing to insert and tap the applications key, and add keystroke. Maybe you can add the keystroke you said that key is doing, what was it? alt windows + Q? And maybe then that insert key will do the insert action.

Hi Loy, It is, because laptop mode, aside from all the other benefits, allows you to use the right hand home keys and surrounding keys, to act as the number pad when the caps lock is down.

Hi, Gene. The only thing I can think of that might help after you press the button to translate, is to press JAWS key plus ESCAPE to refresh the screen, so JAWS doesn't think you're still on the previous, untranslated page.
