Again. Anbd to clarify. When I tab once into the volume dialogue after typing sndvol , on my Toshiba laptop using Windows7 there is the Mute Speakers Button. The Mute System Sounds button is four tab key presses further on than that. ----- Original Message ----- From: "david" <davidwhitehead1...@cogeco.ca> To: <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Saturday, March 15, 2014 12:00 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Unmuting with JAWS 14 > Hello there; > > > If your using windows 7, > > 1, after you've booted the computer, > Wait a little bit for desktop to load. > > 2, now press, > Windows+r=run, > Type in: > sndvol > Press enter, > Tab once, press the spacebar, > This should unmute the sound. > > > > If you wish to put a shortcut to: > Sndvol.exe, on your desktop try the following; > > > > 1, go to desktop, > Windows key+m, > > 2, press the keystroke, > Ctrl+spacebar, > To unselect all icons. > > 3, press the applications key, and down arrow and enter on, New sub > menu. > > 4, now arrow and enter on, > New shortcut. > > 5, > Now type the following in the edit box, > sndvol.exe > 6, tab next, press enter. > You will see/hear; > sndvol.exe > your asked to give the shortcut a name, you can leave the sndvol.exe, > or you > could name it for example; volume. > Tab finish press enter. > > Now, if you would like a hot-key, > > 1, desktop, > Press the letter "s" until you hear, > Sndvol.exe > Or the letter "v" if you've named the shortcut volume, > > 2, now press alt+enter to bring up the properties, > > 3, tab until you hear; > Shortcut key none, > Here you could type s, or what ever letter you wish, Now press enter. > Now you have a shortcut with a hot-key. > > -----Original Message----- >>From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] >>On > Behalf Of Flor Lynch > Sent: Friday, March 14, 2014 10:03 PM > To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com > Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Unmuting with JAWS 14 > > That's the mute speakers button, by pressing the tab key once.
