That is strange, I always close Thunderbird with the Alt + F4 keyboard combination and never have any strange behavior from JAWS because of it.

I've observed an interesting issue with TB and JFW 18 where JFW is
flakey after closing TB with Alt+F4.
The interesting bit is that if you close TB from the file menu, Alt F,
X, JFW behaves normally.
This does not happen every time, but often enough to cause me to use the
alternate shutdown method.
FYI.

Try alt space then the letter n to cminimize the current windoe and
see if
yours comes up.  If not, then just alt tab until you get to the new
document.

Yes, I still have the problem when working with already named documents.

I've encountered something similar in Word 2010. But once I name the new 
document, I can switch back and forth without a problem. Does what you
describe with Word 2016 happen after you've named the newly opened
document?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Jaws 18 and MS Word 2016 document focus problem

Hi,

I am running JFW 18, Windows 10, and MS Word 2016.

When I open a document when another document is already open I have a
lot of
trouble getting Jaws to focus on the newly opened document. Jaws+T says
that I am in the new document.  However, Jaws will not read the
document and
focus returns to the previous document.
Sometimes I can move the Jaws cursor to text in the newly opened document 
and route the PC cursor to the Jaws cursor.  However, this only works
part
of the time.
Sometimes I can resolve the problem by alt-tabbing to another program and 
then alt-tabbing back to the newly opened document.  But, again, this
works
only part of the time.

Sometimes I can resolve the problem by restarting Jaws.

I have tried going back to the default user settings
(control+spacebar, Z).
That does not resolve the problem.

Does anyone have any ideas?
