Re: Working with multiple desktops in windows 10, using Jaws?
If you create a second, third or whatever desktop, it will create an exact copy of your main Desktop with all the icons. What Desktops are for is to use them if you need to work with many applications, say you have 5 applicartions open for work, but you want to have a few apps or browser tabs open for personal use, you can then create a second desktop and do that there. Now switch back to Desktop 1 and continue to do your work stuff, when you want to do anything personal go to Desktop 2 where you can do that. You can easily go back and forth between desktop 1 and 2 by pressing Windows Key + Control + Right or left arrow, e.g. if you are on desktop 2 and you want to go back to desktop 1, press Windows Key + Control + Left arrow, Jaws wills ay "Desktop 1", press Windows Key + Control + Right arrow when you are on Desktop 1 and Jaws will say Desktop 2 and that is where you now are.

Hi,
I created another desktop, to keep things tighty.
I’m wondering how to access this other desktop?
I did some research earlier, & found that you can press windows+tab, to access your list of virtual desktops. Once I was in the list, jaws announced, “desktop 1” or “desktop 2” respectively.
However, when I pressed space on, “desktop 2” nothing seemed to happen, because I still saw my 28 icons, which are on my original desktop.
Can anyone tell me how to navigate this area of windows?
Thanks,
Jessica

I would recommend running a test meeting before your real meeting with just
yourself and recording it to check your levels and your camera placement.

Hello Group, Later this week, I am going to deliver a presentation through Zoom which I would like to record. I know there is a Record button/option in the Zoom Menu. Is there anything that I need to be aware of in terms of setting up/activating in setting up the Record process? In terms of the camera, I would just need to position it so it is focused on me as I am doing the presentation. All help is appreciated.

Yesterday I purchased a Yeti USB mic.If your Blue Yeti is the same as mind, its built-in sound card is only intended for its own input, not input from Windows applications. The only way you'll get sound out of the Yeti is through headphones plugged into its 8-inch jack on the microphone's bottom. Your problem is the same as mine: the Yeti shows up in Windows asas both a microphone (which it is) and a speaker (which it ain't). I'm somewhat curious now to plug headphones into the Yeti, assign JaWS to it and listen for any sound. This phantom Yeti speaker is exactly what I get whenever Narrator runs before my Windows user profile and sound configuration load. Orlando

Re: Go to next link, whether visited or not
Also, if the only controls on the page are links, tab or shift+tab will take you to the next/previous instance regardless of whether said instance has been visited or not.
I realize that many pages have other types of controls interspersed on the page, in which case I'd definitely try Mr. Spratt's recommendation of using the links list, but if you know you have a page that is exclusively links or where other controls are either before or after the "link rich zone" you can use TAB and SHIFT+TAB once you're "in the zone." -- Brian - Windows 10 Pro, 64-Bit, Version 2004, Build 19041 The purpose of education is not to validate ignorance but to overcome it.

Re: Go to next link, whether visited or not

Mark, You may want to check out the Navigation quick keys Open the Jaws window with insert+j Tap alt. Right arrow to utilities, and down arrow to Navigation Quick Key Manager sub menu, right arrow to open it. Press enter on HTML/PDF... Press the letter a until you land on: Any Link. Tab to edit key assignment. I use links far more than lists, so I set this to the letter l. It will warn you of a key already assigned. If you want to do that, just hit OK. And hit ok until you are out of the dialogs. Then, you can use l or shift+l to jump to the next or previous link no matter if it is visited or unvisited.

Pressing insert-F7 brings up a list of the links on the webpage, and they’re shown in succession. If your focus is on the current link, chances are that opening the links list there will place you in the list at or near that link and the next. I find this varies by website.

I forgot to mention, that you can do this for all your documents downloads favorites folders and if you ever lose your hard drive they’ll all be on one drive and when you reinstall windows you just point them at the one drive folder after it downloads and it’ll all be back just like it was before.
