you can get the app specific function by holding down the FN key while

I hope this helps.

Re: Evaluating laptop keyboards for jaws functionality

Chris Hill
 

Hello.  There really is no way to know what you're getting with a mail-order laptop.  Also, the big box stores aren't going to be beaten by much on the price of a large item like that, they over-price small stuff but are pretty competitive on the big stuff.  Mail-order laptops aren't really worth the risk.


Now, as far as what you're dealing with, I've spent a lot of time in the last year looking at laptop keyboards.  There are generally other ways to do what you need to do.  For your home end, page up and page down, try holding down the fn key (usually it is either the left most key on the bottom row, or it is the second from the left and using the arrow keys.  On my laptop there is also a special combination for the applications key, I believe it is fn plus the key just to the left of the separate arrows.  You can always fall back on the applications combination that was around before the separate key, that was shift-f10.



Another sweet litttle trick manufacturers do is to make the up and down arrows as half-height keys, HP seems to like that one. The best keyboard I saw all year comes from Asus, and if I had to buy a laptop right now, I'd start looking there.

For starters you eather need to have someone go into the bios and change the defalt of the function keys.  They now are set for hp device operations, and you need to change it to just f keys.

 

If you do not do this then you would have to press the function key and along with your jaws key and f 7 to have the jaws action take place. And this would be for all f key operations.

The keyboard specs should be part of the details about the laptop before you place the order. Of course, putting your hands on one first is the best way to go. I have not used the jaws laptop layout, but it is suppose to give you all the functionality of the full keyboard.

Re: anti-virus program recommendation

I also use Windows Defender. In addition, I installed Microsoft's security configuration baseline for Windows 1809:
https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/secguide/2018/10/01/security-baseline-draft-for-windows-10-v1809-and-windows-server-2019/

If you have a good backup just in case, and you're comfortable running PowerShell scripts, it should be fairly clear from Microsoft's instructions what to do. If you don't have that background, then I'd suggest having the installation done by someone who does.

The baseline configuration enables various Windows security features, including virtualization-based security, attack surface reduction rules, network protection (blocking of known malicious Web sites), tighter user permissions, stronger BitLocker encryption, prevention of users from writing to unencrypted USB drives, etc.

Hi, Tom. My friend also had Avast antivirus, and used the tool to get rid of Avast. It says that it requires safe mode, but if you run it, it will still work, and will uninstall the antivirus program. Also, if using Windows 10, you can now go into safe mode with either Narrator or JAWS, and run programs in safe mode.

Uninstalling Avast is not in any way different than any other program.  Open Control Panel, Programs and Features, select the program you wish to uninstall from the list, then bring up the context menu and select Uninstall from it.

Unfortunately in my experience and according to  numerous messages on Jaws and tech lists this does not remove all traces of Avast. On my Win 7 computer I was never able to get rid of Avast until I had a complete reinstall of Win 7. Avast did have a free download of a program to get rid of what was left of a normal un install but it required going into safe mode.  Tom

Uninstalling Avast is not in any way different than any other program.  Open Control Panel, Programs and Features, select the program you wish to uninstall from the list, then bring up the context menu and select Uninstall from it.

ok so with control I, let me get your input guys, this should be a lot
easier. I wanna have a simple list of bookmarks, and not have it be
complicated. This shouldn't be hard. By default, where do you guys
save bookmarks

By default bookmarks go into the bookmarks toolbar folder
See if your bookmark has gone into there

Hey guys,

OK, perhaps some of you can help. So i am using the latest jaws, and
the latest firefox. I am bookmarking a website. I know exactly what
i called it. However, i put it in other bookmarks. I bookmarked the
page. However when i brought up my bookmarks, i didn't see it there.
The name of it starts with the letter I, i kept hitting that, and
nothing came up. Very strange. Any ideas on what to do?

Thanks,
Jed

I get this message with JAWS2019, but not with JAWS2018, which makes me think it's a JAWS setting.

You'll want to turn those off in Word and that will carry over to Outlook. I can't recall which setting is the one you want, but here are a few clues you can try:
Go to the Options dialog with Alt F, then T;
Under General, Tab to the first option to show mini tool bar and uncheck that.
Under Advanced, uncheck the box about showing options upon paste. Warning, this is a really long list of options. Once you find the one you want, maybe shift Tab back to the OK button or to the menu, because tabbing forward is cumbersome.
Under proofing, I think I saw a checkbox under Auto Correct that may also help.

Hey guys:
Using word2016, outlook2016, latest win10 and jaws2019 regular release;

When in outlook and word, and whilst writing emails and docs,
I get this message popping up a lot, and it is truly annoying;
"action: undo autoactions"
(both speech and braille display);
It flickers;

Am guessing that there is something in both word and outlook that needs to be turned off;
Something that jaws is seeing and reacting too;
I went into settings with alt+f, t, and am not sure what to turn off, maybe something in proofing?
But am not sure what to turn off;
Any ideas?
