Hi Karen!
You should be able to go to the about JAWS dialog and it will tell you how many upgrades you have left.
1. insert+J to open the JAWS context menu 2. press up arrow two time to get to the about option 3. press enter 4. press insert+alt+W to virtualize the dialog, this makes it easy to browse what it says. or you could switch to the JAWS cursor by pressing the numeric keypad - key.

Karen:
With JAWS set to run from the System Tray, the JAWS
window is accessed easily, by pressing INSERT+J, when you are using the JAWS
Desktop keyboard layour or, CTRL+SHIFT+CAPS LOCK+J, when you are using the JAWS
laptop keyboard layout.

Okay here we
go. Steps for turning on System tray icons and how to rearrange the
system tray icons if you would like to do this.
Turning on
system tray icons: 1. Windows key + I, for Settings, then tab 1 time to,
System. 2. Navigate to, Personalization, press enter, then tab 1 time to
get into the list of options. 3. Down arrow to, Taskbar, press enter. 4.
Tab several times to,Select which icons appear on the Taskbar link, press
enter. 5. Tab through these icons, & press the spacebar to toggle or
turn off / On. If an item is checked it's, On, if it's unchecked it's,
Off. Items that are turned on appear in the system
tray.
Here's how I
rearrange the system tray icons running Windows 10 Pro Version 21H2
latest:
1. Windows
key + I, for Settings, tab 1 time to System, right arrow to Personalization,
and press enter. 2. Navigate to, Taskbar and press enter. 3. Tab several
times to, Show Badges on Taskbar..., and make sure this is, Off /
unchecked. 4. Tab a few times to, Notification Area, Select which icons
appear on the taskbar Link, and press enter. 5. Okay now to put the System
Tray in the order you want it in. Tab through all the icons making a
note of which ones you have checked / turned on because you're going to
uncheck all of them. 6. Uncheck all the icons. Now you will go
through and check the icons in the reverse order you want them in
because , the 1st one yu check will be at the bottom of the list, the
2nd will be 2nd from the bottom, the 3rd will be 3rd from the bottom etc.
etc.... After you're done open the system tray to make sure it's the way
you want it and Alt + F4 if it is, there's not an Okay
button. Note: If you have the Action Center showing in the system
tray I don't know of any way to get that to show anywhere else except at the
bottom. Rearranging the icons using the steps above will put them in
the order you want them, but they'll all be above the Action
Center.

Hi Karen!
You should be able to go to the about JAWS
dialog and it will tell you how many upgrades you have left.
1.
insert+J to open the JAWS context menu 2. press up arrow two time to get to
the about option 3. press enter 4. press insert+alt+W to virtualize the
dialog, this makes it easy to browse what it says. or you could switch to
the JAWS cursor by pressing the numeric keypad -
key.

Okay
here we go. Steps for turning on System tray icons and
how to rearrange the system tray icons if you would like
to do this.
Turning
on system tray icons:
1. Windows key + I, for Settings, then tab 1 time to,
System.
2. Navigate to, Personalization, press enter, then tab 1
time to get into the list of options.
3. Down arrow to, Taskbar, press enter.
4. Tab several times to,Select which icons appear on the
Taskbar link, press enter.
5. Tab through these icons, & press the spacebar to
toggle or turn off / On. If an item is checked it's, On,
if it's unchecked it's, Off. Items that are turned on
appear in the system tray.
Here's
how I rearrange the system tray icons running Windows 10
Pro Version 21H2 latest:
1.
Windows key + I, for Settings, tab 1 time to System, right
arrow to Personalization, and press enter.
2. Navigate to, Taskbar and press enter.
3. Tab several times to, Show Badges on Taskbar..., and
make sure this is, Off / unchecked.
4. Tab a few times to, Notification Area, Select which
icons appear on the taskbar Link, and press enter.
5. Okay now to put the System Tray in the order you want
it in. Tab through all the icons making a note of which
ones you have checked / turned on because
you're going to uncheck all of them.
6. Uncheck all the icons. Now you will go through and
check the icons in the reverse order you want them in
because , the 1st one yu check will be at
the bottom of the list, the 2nd will be 2nd from the
bottom, the 3rd will
be 3rd from the bottom etc. etc.... After you're done
open the system tray to make sure it's the way you want it
and Alt + F4 if it is, there's not an
Okay button.
Note: If you have the Action Center showing in the system
tray I don't know of any way to get that to show anywhere
else except at the bottom. Rearranging
the icons using the steps above will put them in the order
you want them, but they'll all be above the Action Center.
Stay safe and take care. Mike.

If you

If you
have Jaws set to run from the system tray try unloading

I must have something set up differently. I
can press insert plus j and it brings up the jaws window and
reads the current version, like it would as a heading. It
won’t let me get to the menus this way unless I press alt h.
Is there a setting I need to change in Jaws?

Press,

Hi Karen,
Okay here we go. Steps for turning on System tray
icons and how to rearrange the system tray icons if you would like to do
this.
Turning on system tray icons: 1. Windows key + I, for Settings, then
tab 1 time to, System. 2. Navigate to, Personalization, press enter, then tab
1 time to get into the list of options. 3. Down arrow to, Taskbar, press

press enter. 5. Tab through these icons, & press the spacebar to toggle
or turn off / On. If an item is checked it's, On, if it's unchecked it's,
Off. Items that are turned on appear in the system tray.
Here's how I rearrange the system tray icons running Windows 10 Pro
Version 21H2 latest:
1. Windows key + I, for Settings, tab 1 time to System, right arrow to
Personalization, and press enter. 2. Navigate to, Taskbar and press
enter. 3. Tab several times to, Show Badges on Taskbar..., and make sure this
is, Off / unchecked. 4. Tab a few times to, Notification Area, Select which
icons appear on the taskbar Link, and press enter. 5. Okay now to put the
System Tray in the order you want it in. Tab through all the icons making
a note of which ones you have checked / turned on because you're going to
uncheck all of them. 6. Uncheck all the icons. Now you will go through
and check the icons in the reverse order you want them in because , the 1st
one yu check will be at the bottom of the list, the 2nd will be 2nd from the
bottom, the 3rd will be 3rd from the bottom etc. etc.... After you're
done open the system tray to make sure it's the way you want it and Alt + F4 if
it is, there's not an Okay button. Note: If you have the Action
Center showing in the system tray I don't know of any way to get that to show
anywhere else except at the bottom. Rearranging the icons using the
steps above will put them in the order you want them, but they'll all be above
the Action Center.

Karen The advantage for me is by running it from the system tray it keeps the Jaws window out of the, Alt - Tab, order when Alt - Tabbing amongst open windows, but the Jaws context menues can still be accessed via the, Insert + J, keystroke, as mentioned by Gene I believe. One caveat seldom mentioned is that you can tell Jaws to run from the system tray, but you don't have to have it show in the system tray.

run Jaws from the system tray this is normal, but if you do run Jaws from the
system tray it is not.
If you have
Jaws set to run from the system tray try unloading Jaws and reloading, now see
if you can access the menues by arrowing after pressing, Insert +
J.

I must have something set up differently. I can press insert

Hi Karen!
You should be able to go to the about
JAWS dialog and it will tell you how many upgrades you have left.
1.
insert+J to open the JAWS context menu 2. press up arrow two time to get to the
about option 3. press enter 4. press insert+alt+W to virtualize the dialog, this
makes it easy to browse what it says. or you could switch to the JAWS cursor
by pressing the numeric keypad - key.

Hi Mike,
So if I put it in the system tray, when I alt tab through
other programs that are open, it isn’t one that I would alt tab through? So if I
had Outlook and two documents in Word open and I was doing alt tab to go between
them, Jaws wouldn’t be a part of that?
Karen
The advantage
for me is by running it from the system tray it keeps the Jaws window out of
the, Alt - Tab, order when Alt - Tabbing amongst open windows, but the Jaws
context menues can still be accessed via the, Insert + J, keystroke, as
mentioned by Gene I believe.
One caveat
seldom mentioned is that you can tell Jaws to run from the system tray, but you
don't have to have it show in the system tray. I do it this way so it cuts
down clutter in the Alt - Tab order and also shows one less icon in the system
tray.

Not having a JAWS window makes it less obtrusive and gives it
a greater appearance of running in the background. You can hit jaws key + j to
access the menu so there’s no disadvantage.

It really should be the default, but maybe it isn't
so because having it in the alt tab rotation may cause some beginners explore
the Jaws settings, which sadly is rare.

Hi Karen,
The advantage for me is by running it from the system
tray it keeps the Jaws window out of the, Alt - Tab, order when Alt
- Tabbing amongst open windows, but the Jaws context menues can still be
accessed via the, Insert + J, keystroke, as mentioned by Gene I
believe.
One caveat seldom mentioned is that you can tell Jaws to

also shows one less icon in the system tray.

Hi Karen!
You should be able to go to the about
JAWS dialog and it will tell you how many upgrades you have left.
1.
insert+J to open the JAWS context menu 2. press up arrow two time to get to the
about option 3. press enter 4. press insert+alt+W to virtualize the dialog, this
makes it easy to browse what it says. or you could switch to the JAWS cursor
by pressing the numeric keypad - key.
