Moderated finding time with jaws
|
Rahul Bajaj
Hi, I use JAWS 2022. When I press insert+f12 to find out the time, JAWS says nothing in response. How can I find out the current time using a keystroke on my Windows laptop?

Hi, Rahul. Depending on what laptop you have, you must either press a keystroke such as FN plus ESCAPE (if it is a Dell), or maybe left Shift Key plus ESCAPE, or you may need a sighted person to go into the BIOS before Windows boots up, and disable "Action Keys" in order for you to get the legacy function key behavior you are wanting.

Hi, Rahul. I was not clear, apparently. I am not asking you to press F12 at all, I am saying the FN key next to the CONTROL plus ESCAPE, or FN (next to the CONTROL key) plus the left Shift Key. Otherwise, you will need a sighted person to see the screen before Windows boots up, and go into BIOS, and disable Action Keys.

You are using the keystroke which gives the time and date. Since this is not working, there is a different issue. Suggest contacting Vispero Technical Support.
What has changed on your system? How long has this problem persisted?
Cordially,
Curtis Chong

Hi, although it does not address the insert key
issue, you can confirm that it is or is not the computer's secondary use of the
F-keys, by trying:
caps lock F12
Assuming you are using laptop layout.

If Rahul did not have access to a sighted person to help with going into BIOS, and disabling Action Keys. would using an external keyboard and making sure Jaws was using the desktop keyboard layout, be a useful fix, until he could get sighted help? Thanks, TJ On 2/2/2023 9:49 PM, Bill White wrote:

Van Lant, Robin
Rahul, On my HP Pavilion, I have to press the FN key, Insert and F12 together to have it say the time. If I don’t include the FN key, it toggles airplane mode.
