Hi Any hotkey, such as control+alt+j to start JAWS can only exist in one icon/shortcut on the system or it won't work at all. If you have icons for other versions of JAWS, check each one to see what shortcut key is assigned. If it's control+alt+j, press backspace to erase it, tab to OK and press enter.

It still doesn't work. -----Original Message----- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of david Sent: Sunday, December 04, 2011 8:09 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] can't run jaws from start menu search box hello there; first, when your using the run box, do not type a space between jaws and 13. type: jaws13 regarding your jaws icon, shortcut, highlight the jaws 13 icon, press alt+enter to bring up properties, tab over where it says, shortcut key none, type the letter j and press enter. -----Original Message----- From: Tasha Raella Chemel Sent: Sunday, December 04, 2011 10:50 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] can't run jaws from start menu search box Hi, Using windows 7, I can't seem to launch jaws from the start menu by typing jaws 13 into the start menu search box. I get an aerror message, but can't tell what it is because jaws is off. This is a big problem, because it means that if jaws crashes, it is difficult if not impossible to relaunch it. A control-alt-j keyboard shortcut also doesn't work.
