Hi all,
Someone reported on JFW list (hosted on Groups.IO) that the user cannot interact with certain web content displayed in Edge 79 beta, along with a thread on Win10 forum about inability to interact with web content shown in Edge with other screen readers. This issue can be traced to the fact that, in Edge 79 (upcoming stable version), UI Automation is enabled (several reports were sent to Microsoft about this issue). Unfortunately, as an NVDA core developer (not me) notes, UIA implementation in Chromium-based web browsers (including Edge) isn’t solid yet.
To work around this for now, you need to disable UIA support in Edge and other Chromium-based web browsers (if your browser exposes this option). To do so in Edge 79:

function key row on keyboard stopped working
Stan Holdeman
With Windows 10, Jaws 2020 and an HP laptop I have a Magic keyboard attached thru a hub. The function keys and all other top row of keys have stopped responding. The board has some years on it. I assume it has worn out. Just checking to see iif there might be something fixable that I don’t know about.

Re: Keys Seemingly Stuck Down

if it is sticky keys, you can press the right shift key 5 times and then answer no to the dialog. this will turn off sticky keys.

being a jaws user since jaws 2.0 this problem has been around since then, lol! I always can get the keys to unstick by pressing both afending keys at the same time several times and the problem goes away.

Unfortunately, Richard, re-starting doesn’t seem to solve my problem but I suspect you are right that it is something to do with sticky-keys functionality; it definitely isn’t anything wrong with the keyboard itself. But I se a suggestion about trying to jiggle the alternative alt key, so will try this the next time it happens. Interestingly enough, it never happens when I am using the internet. Alison

Hi Alison!
About your issue with keys seemingly being stuck down, I have seen this before as well. Most often, it is either or both of the alt and windows keys. I have never figured out how or why this happens. For me, it is not a mechanical thing, like the keys physically being stuck down due to something like a crumb. I think it has something to do with something like “sticky keys.” I have a vague recollection that a certain combination of keystrokes in Windows causes keys to act like they are always pressed down. I do not know what that combination is. But, apparently one can trigger this without knowing or intending to do so. For me, the problem goes away after a restart.
HTH, Richard
From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of CJ &AA MAY
The keys don’t actually get stuck down but behave as though they are. We have tried cleaning them. I had a feeling that this was discussed before Christmas and I wasn’t alone with this issue where the computer behaves as though the alt key or windows key is still depressed. I think I will take Ed’s advice and wait till the summer before upgrading Jaws and take advantage of Sight and Sound’s Summer Deal as it looks as if it will cost me around £350 to upgrade from Jaws 18 to the current version. Alison
From: main@jfw.groups.io <main@jfw.groups.io> On Behalf Of Richard Turner
First, the problem with the keys acting like they are jammed down may not be a Jaws issue, so no one should say one way or the other if that will solve your problem. Maybe you could specify what you have tried already to resolve that issue. The current version is Jaws 2020, so if you have just Jaws 18, you would need 2018, 2019 and 2020, but since you get a little better deal doing them in groups of two, you may want to do through 2021. Or, you could go with the subscription model at $90 per year and jump right into the 2020 version. You'll have to do the math to see which makes the most sense in your situation. HTH,

Hello yes one year subscription for 9999 ear or you can purchase the subscription for 2-5 years Of the Jaws subscription. Suppressing berries on how many years you purchase on the subscription. Finally I went to note that the subscription is only for the home version of jobs and not for the professional version. If you need the professional version then you have to buy it outright.
