Mike, The live tiles are on the start screen. After pressing the windows key, tab across and you will come to them. Kurt

This is a setting I have not come across, or just didn't notice. I have accomplished getting rid of all the stuff showing in the Jaws Task List in all Jaws versions except for J16. Thanks to you all!

Upon reading your message, I remember an app doing this to me. Kurt -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

It looks like that's just the way it's going to have to be, but that's okay. Thank you very much for the advice & explanation. Take care. Mike. Sent from my iBarstool.

When you close a universal app (such as Skype UWP, Cortana, Microsoft Store and what not) on Windows 10, they will still run. The technical term for this is called "app suspension" (introduced in Windows 8.x) where the app window will appear to have closed but are in fact suspended. The JAWS window list command (JAWS Key+F10) lists top-level windows on screen, including windows for universal apps. The "true" ways to close universal apps are via Task Manager or going to Settings/Privacy/Background and preventing apps from running in the background. Also, someone suggested (here or somewhere) to use msconfig. No, this method won't work on universal apps at all. There will come a time in 2018 where you can open Settings app to control which apps start on startup, including universal apps.

Thank you very much for your reply, & a very happy New Year to all. ----- Original Message ----- From: John R.

In the startup tab, I suspect you have a lot of "crap"(your words) and uncheck the items as you down arrow through the list of startup items. About all I leave checked in the start up dialogue is Jaws. Everything else you can start as needed. Hope this helps.
