Links, Feature To Read Links Across Verses In a List
I've noticed this issue. On some web pages the links are on the same line and sometimes they are on separate lines. I made no changes to the Jaws settings. Now that you brought this to our attention,

Logon, logoff and shutdown sound for Windows 10
