moderated Using Edge with Jaws

Kimber Gardner
Hi all,
I'm looking for some tips on using the Edge browser with Jaws. Honestly, I don't even know how to verify that I am running the newer more accessible version of Edge or how to check that. Also, are there certain settings that should be changed to give a better browsing experience? Any resources or suggestions will be much appreciated. Thanks, Kim -- Kimberly

My current version after installing the new chrome based one is:

Microsoft Edge Version 80.0.361.109 If you cannot get the new chrome based Edge to install, call Microsoft Accessibility 800-936-5900 and it will take about 3 or 4 minutes for them to get it installed for you. Richard "There's a nap for that." - an anonymous cat in a window in Portland, Oregon.

If using JAWS, open Edge and press insert+ctrl+v. JAWS will read the version number.

I may have missed this in one of your earlier messages, but which version of Jaws do you have and which version of Windows?
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
For Jaws press Jaws Key + J and then Jaws Key + Control + V For Windows press the Windows Key or Windows Key + R for the Run dialogue and type WinVer (short for Windows Version)

I'm not sure what the original point was of tping Edge update, but that does not get you to where you can update Edge.
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
You either download the newer version from the Microsoft web site or update it from within Edge itself. But edge update is not a recognized command. Richard "There's a nap for that." - an anonymous cat in a window in Portland, Oregon.

I have a question about Edge. I know how to add favorites, but I have no idea how to find them when I want to use them? What do I do? Thanks in advance for the help. Kevin, Jilly, and Valerie from a distance

Apparently, Manage Favorites is control+shift+o.

Hi list,
I haven’t followed this thread, but I want to know why chrome is better—or if it is better. I generally use Firefox now. I have used Edge now and then, but if it will work well for me using the chrome version, then I’ll try it.

I’m using the latest version of jaws and windows 10 with all current updates. I did not have the most up-to-date version of edge but I do now and I’m trying to get a custom to it. I’m sure they’ll be a learning curve but it does feel pretty familiar since I’ve been a chrome user for quite a while now.
