Usually, if the program is displaying properly, you can find the maximize and close buttons on the top line using the Jaws Review cursor.

So are looking forward to improving my skills in using Jaws(even though I am a long time user of it smile). I have been having several issues with Jaws since version 15. For example, I am currently using Jaws 16 on a Windows7 home premium on a desktop computer. Starting with Jaws15, I have noticed that Jaws will no longer speak to me the close icon at the top of any programs or windows. I have confirmed with family members that the icon is in fact showing. I have spoken to my local Freedom Scientific distributor. But they just said. If it is there, than Jaws will read it. But like I said, family members confirm that they can see it and click on it. I do realize, that I can use the alt F4 command to close a program or window. But I find that alt F4 does not always close properly. So I like to be able to route Jaws to the PC cursor and then left click on the close icon. Has anybody else experienced this?
