Wayne, I also have word 2010. Lately, I've found that pressing the alt key, then the f, followed by I, e works. Like Justin, I used to find the sequence began with alt-f pressed together but not lately, at least with Word 2010.
One more thought. I might say to myself, "one and.." between each key press. Thus, alt, one and, f, one and, I, etc. sounds silly, I know, but I think it takes a moment for each key press to be processed. Then you should get an outer space sound, at which you press the spacebar for "Yes." Then the document will open. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of wayne smith Sent: Wednesday, July 19, 2017 4:37 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Protected Mode Justin, I tried the Alt-f i and e sequence in a Word 2010 doc and it did nothing. Is this method for later versions of MS Word only?

Can anyone tell me how to get a word document out of protected view? I am using JAWS 17, Word 2013 and Windows 10 on a Dell Laptop. Many thanks in advance.
