Hello there; If your need is to just mute jaws, You can press, Insert+spacebar, Then press the letter "s". Perform the same steps to unmute jaws, since this is a toggle.

Can someone tell me if there is a way to unmute jaws when I muted it. I am using Jaws version 13, and when I do insert F11 it takes me to the system tray. I think I go down 7 times until i get to volume control and hit enter there. Then I tab through the list and i notice it says "Mute for Jaws to activate hit space bar, and when I hit space bar, I know that jaws is muted. But is there a way to get jaws unmuted when I have hit the space bar to unmute it. I muted Jaws one time by hitting the space bar, and then restarted my computer, and I would have hoped that jaws would have come back on after booting up but it didn't, and the worst ghing is I had to call a sighted person to help me get Jaws unmuted. I wish there was a way to unmute jaws by doing a key board command unstead of having a sighted person do it for me.
