And a big, "Oops, my bad!," on the ALT+F4 bit, which does, as Richard said, close a program. But the principle of these being Windows keyboard shortcuts, unrelated to JAWS or any other screen reader,

I had not paid much attention to this thread but since it was continuing I read through all the posts. To close a document in Windows, you can use either Control+w or control+f4. Both keystrokes

Shirley, Once in a while I'll get into a situation where a modifier key, such as alt or control, temporarily won't function as it should. Sometimes, you can remedy this by pressing each of the

And, for the record, ALT+F4 is a Windows keyboard shortcut, completely unrelated to the screen reader in use (or not in use), so unless someone did something to do a custom remapping, which is not

Hi, I recently got the same message for the first time. No one else was using the message. It appeared to be a fluke of Outlook. Once I did a reboot of the program and computer all was well. I

Hi Sieghard, I posted the J2020 update to the list on 12/10, but you must have missed it. Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool. Go Rams! Arguing with a woman is like reading a software license

And the December update for Jaws 2020 came out today.
