Can't access settings combo box in google chrome
Juanita
Hi all:
I’m using jaws 2018 and public beta 2019 and Windows 10. On the google chrome home page, nothing I’ve tried will let me access the settings combo box. I’ve tried alt-down arrow and enter. I’m trying to get to advance settings to allow popups. Thanks in advance for any suggestions for solving this problem. Juanita

Hi,
It’s not a combo, just press enter on Advanced Settings, and all the items will appear below it in browse mode.
All the best

This worked beautifully, though I don't know why. I still can't activate the buttons under settings. What am I missing? I can't tell if a button is pressed or not. Thanks for your help. -----Original Message-----
