Hi Jim,

I did what you said and made a hot key for Thunderbird and when you 
press the hot key it does the same thing the program still does not 
respond when it opens just like when I enter the icon on the desk top.

I sure wish I knew what is wrong with it this problem just started this 
week.

well thanks for your help any way I will keep trying and let you know if 
I figure it out.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] customizing W-10 with Jaws, anniversary update

Hi Jaws users list, this is my updated section of my W-10 and Jaws, complete
guide for the anniversary update to W-10. Please read and let me know what
you all think about the guide. This helps me to determine if I am helping
you all learn about W-10.

Section, Customizing Windows 10 with Jaws.

Customizing w-10 with Jaws.

Overview.
Each section starts with***.
1. Reinstalling Jaws 17.
2. Setting default programs in w-10.
3. Changing your folder options, now called File Explorer Options, in w-10.
4. How to Turn off the background apps in w-10.
5. How to change how Windows updates are delivered.
6. Live Tile Region, now called, pinns view list box.
7. The All Apps region, now called, apps view list box, of the Start button
area.
8. How to put the, This PC, Icon on the Desktop.
9. How to put a shortcut to your user folders, on the Desktop.
10. Making Program shortcut Icons, on your Desktop.
11. How to put a shortcut, for iE on your Desktop or Taskbar.
12. Using a Pin to log-in to w-10.
13. How to Verify your Microsoft Account in Windows 10, I think this is
correct.
14. Miscellaneous.
15. Making your W-10 desktop look like W-7.
16. The Notification area and the Notification Chevron button.

1. ***Reinstalling Jaws 17.
1. The first thing you may want to do on your Windows 10 computer is,
Download the latest version of Jaws 17 to your Download folder.
2. If you upgraded to w-10 from w-7 or w-8.1, you should for best
performance, uninstall Jaws, you can keep shared components and shared
settings, so, uninstall Jaws 17.
3. You then can use Narrator, press Windows key+Enter, to turn Narrator
on/off, to go to your download folder where a downloaded copy of Jaws 17
should be already downloaded.
4. Now, install Jaws 17, Freshly on to your new w-10 computer.
5. This has proven to increase the performance of Jaws on w-10, especially,
in the Start button area, and in the Settings area of w-10.
6. Redo your Jaws shortcut keystroke, Control+ALT+J.
7. Redo your Jaws setting to make sure, that it is set to come on at the
log-onscreen.
For whatever reason these two settings are not saved, all other Jaws
settings are preserved.
8. If you are using Open book, you should do a fresh reinstall of this
program as well as, any other screen reading programs, on your w-10
computer.


2. ***Setting default programs in w-10.
1. windows key+I, Opens the settings area, search edit box.
Tab one time, You are in a horizontal list of 9 items, use your right and
left arrow keys to move across the items.
2. Right arrow to System, press enter, tab one time, down arrow to default
apps and press enter.
3. Tab across this window, look for the internet browser which by default is
Microsoft edge.
4. Press the spacebar on the edge, tab to IE 11, press the spacebar, this
will set IE as your default browser.
Do the same thing with all the different default programs, for example,
email clients.
5. Tab to, say, WLM email client default, press the spacebar on it, tab to
say, Outlook 2016, and press the spacebar, to set Outlook 2016 as your
default email client, .


3. ***Changing your File Explorer Options:
The "Old folder Options" is now called, File Explorer Options.
So for an easier way of finding it, do the following.
1. Press the Windows key or Press enter on the Start button.
2. Start typing, file explorer options.
3. Press down and up arrow, look for File Explorer Options, Control Panel,
press enter.
4. By default, on the general tab the first item is set to Quick Access.
Down arrow one time to change it to, This PC if that is what you wish, I
like the quick access setting better.
Tab to, browse folders, open each folder in the same window, radio button
checked.
Tab again to, Click items as follows double click to open an item single
click to select, radio button checked.
Tab again to, Privacy show recently used files in quick access, check-box,
mine is unchecked, press the spacebar to change.
Tab again to, Privacy show frequently used folders in quick access
check-box, mine is unchecked.
Tab again to, Privacy clear button, this will clear the privacy tabs.
Tab again to, Restore defaults

Re: [JAWS-Users] update now available to speakDropbox fixing win10 anniversary update bugs

[valiant8086]

Hi.


Welcome to my world. That happened to me too. Maybe restarting the 
computer will work. I ended up finding the speakDropbox context menu on 
my touch screen, because it wouldn't put keyboard focus in the window, 
which so far as I know is no fault of speakDropbox. When you hit the 
context key on speakDropbox or do what ever it takes to activate the 
menu, the menu may open but doesn't gain keyboard focus for some odd 
reason, there's no way with the keyboard so far as I can find to focus 
it, and once it is open speakDropbox is stuck, it locks up when that 
menu is open. So yeah, there may be tricks to get it to happen but just 
a computer restart might get it working long enough to update.



By the way, if you're updating it with the downloaded installer, you 
could kill speakDropbox from task manager in order to be able to get the 
installer to run, that should work fine.

Hi Aaron and all,


I'd like to thank Aaron publically for his fast response to the dropbox
issues especially since the program is free.

Keep up the great work!

Hi.


After I got over my major headache today, I got messing around with
speakDropbox again. I can't get it to reproduce the issue I had before
that I couldn't get it to click the dropbox icon when I double pressed the

respective keystroke. I have no idea why it works now because I've
stripped out all the related test code until it's back the way it is in
version 15, so until I can reproduce that issue, I'm calling this release

ready. So update your speakDropbox's, even those running on windows 10
versions prior to Anniversary update will benefit, since I finally changed

the alt+win+m keystroke that opens speakDropbox's own menu to
shift+alt+win+m instead, so that it works in windows 10 where alt+win+m
just doesn't work at all.


If you need a fresh download or if you want to learn what speakDropbox is

if you don't know what I'm talking about, the link to the speakDropbox
downloads page is

http://valiant8086.com/applications/speakDropbox/

the purpose of speakDropbox is explained there.


Of course, as long as you don't have the crazy issue I just had while
trying to update my installed copy, you should be able to get it to update

itself from the version menu item in speakDropbox's own tray.



Btw, I've received multiple requests to make a speakOneDrive. I intend to

try, but I think I'll extend the functionality of speakDropbox and rename

it so that it can speak various icons including One Drive. This would of
course not use any more cpu time than it already does if not configured to

support one drive or anything else besides dropbox, so let's not be
concerned that such a change will result in increased cpu consumption if
you just want it to work the way speakDropbox currently does. Any
suggestions on a name for such a creature? Also, any further requests for

tray icons to support? Google drive is not applicable as it doesn't
actually display any useful status.


Just to be safe, I'm not positive I'm going to do anything yet, but I am
definitely intrigued. Just please don't get too excited in case I don't
get my lazy butt in gear and make it happen.


Good luck happy dropboxing and so on!

Hi.


The documentation you pasted below is now out of date. though Not enough 
to make a difference on whether this helps explain the difference of 
speakDropbox as compared to Dropbox.

Hi Justin,

Hope the following explains it well enough:
Welcome!
Welcome and thanks for trying out SpeakDropbox. For other applications that
I've written see my web site at
http://valiant8086.com

What is this thing anyway?
SpeakDropbox is a lightweight application that runs on the system tray and
looks for a
Dropbox
  icon in said tray. If found, it watches the tool tip text for that icon and
can automatically read it out loud or play sounds when there is a change to
said tool tip text. As a result, SpeakDropbox is able to announce out loud
or produce alert noises when the Dropbox app is up to something like
downloading
a file, uploading a file, indexing, connecting, downloading file list, etc.
Additionally, it allows for manual checking of said tool tip from anywhere
with a configurable keystroke (especially useful when using sounds only and
wanting to find out what Dropbox is up to when you hear one of the sounds),
and a double press provides an easy way to open the Dropbox menu from
anywhere without the need of using "system tray listing" functionality in
your screen
reader or simulating a click on the Dropbox tray icon. SpeakDropbox will
probably be most useful for people who are blind or visually impaired and
using
a Screen Reader like
NVDA (Non Visual Desktop Access),
as it uses the Screen Reader to provide the speech output. however, it will
speak via the Microsoft Speech API 5 or later using the computer's built in
voice if there is no Screen Reader that it supports present. In other words,
if you're not blind, or visually impaired, or if you have a screen reader
that SpeakDropbox does not support, you may still have use for this
application.

Requirements
list of 3 items
. Same as Dropbox for windows itself
. Dropbox, of course
click here to visit their web site
. if using with screen reader, SpeakDropbox supports the following
list of 4 items nesting level 1
1. JAWS, not sure how far back, 10 at least
2. Window-Eyes, no clue how far back, I'm guessing earlier than 7.0
3. System Access, to my knowledge it's not really possible to be running an
old system access so how far back is not applicable
4. Dolphin Supernova and Hal, no clue what version, most likely it'll work
though is my guess
list end nesting level 1
The reason I'm not totally sure about how far back these go is I didn't
write the code I use to access the screen readers and the documentation for
that
doesn't tell me. If you're using something ancient and you wonder, try it
and see if it works.

Installation
Run the installer. It will want administrator privileges, so if you have
user account control turned on, the UAC prompt will come up. Follow the
installation
wizard to choose where to install it and where to put the start menu
shortcuts and whether you want SpeakDropbox to start automatically each time
your
computer is started. the installer will give you a chance to check all the
settings made. If all is well, hit install. Installation should take about
10
seconds. On the last page there is the opportunity to choose whether to
start SpeakDropbox immediately, view documentation and view the change log
to see
what's new.

how it works
SpeakDropbox will hang out in your system tray and look for a Dropbox icon.
if it can find one, it will watch for that icon to change it's tool tip.
When
SpeakDropbox detects a change to the Dropbox icon, it will automatically
read out what the tool tip now says, after stripping some of the information
away
so as not to be rattling on about transfer rates and the like as that every
time the speed changes which, for most people, is pretty much continuously.
It can also play a non obtrusive sound to alert you when something is
happening, either in addition to or alternatively to the spoken output.
These can
both be disabled in the tray menu, enabling for use of SpeakDropbox to have
quick read outs of the Dropbox icon only when desired, by pressing the
keyboard
shortcut, and having the ability to open the Dropbox menu and Dropbox folder
but not having to put up with continuous Dropbox status updates. If it can't
find a Dropbox tray icon, it will announce "No Dropbox Icon found". It
should be able to pick up the icon automatically if you start Dropbox after
already
having SpeakDropbox running. Also it should be able to pick it up again if
you have to exit and restart Dropbox and you leave SpeakDropbox running. You
can click or press space or enter on the SpeakDropbox icon in the tray to
bring up a menu of options that will allow you to make SpeakDropbox:

Hi Jaws users list, this is my updated section of my W-10 and Jaws, complete
guide for the anniversary update to W-10. Please read and let me know what
you all think about the guide. This helps me to determine if I am helping
you all learn about W-10.

Section, Customizing Windows 10 with Jaws.

Customizing w-10 with Jaws.

Overview.
Each section starts with***.
1. Reinstalling Jaws 17.
2. Setting default programs in w-10.
3. Changing your folder options, now called File Explorer Options, in w-10.
4. How to Turn off the background apps in w-10.
5. How to change how Windows updates are delivered.
6. Live Tile Region, now called, pinns view list box.
7. The All Apps region, now called, apps view list box, of the Start button
area.
8. How to put the, This PC, Icon on the Desktop.
9. How to put a shortcut to your user folders, on the Desktop.
10. Making Program shortcut Icons, on your Desktop.
11. How to put a shortcut, for iE on your Desktop or Taskbar.
12. Using a Pin to log-in to w-10.
13. How to Verify your Microsoft Account in Windows 10, I think this is
correct.
14. Miscellaneous.
15. Making your W-10 desktop look like W-7.
16. The Notification area and the Notification Chevron button.

1. ***Reinstalling Jaws 17.
1. The first thing you may want to do on your Windows 10 computer is,
Download the latest version of Jaws 17 to your Download folder.
2. If you upgraded to w-10 from w-7 or w-8.1, you should for best
performance, uninstall Jaws, you can keep shared components and shared
settings, so, uninstall Jaws 17.
3. You then can use Narrator, press Windows key+Enter, to turn Narrator
on/off, to go to your download folder where a downloaded copy of Jaws 17
should be already downloaded.
4. Now, install Jaws 17, Freshly on to your new w-10 computer.
5. This has proven to increase the performance of Jaws on w-10, especially,
in the Start button area, and in the Settings area of w-10.
6. Redo your Jaws shortcut keystroke, Control+ALT+J.
7. Redo your Jaws setting to make sure, that it is set to come on at the
log-onscreen.
For whatever reason these two settings are not saved, all other Jaws
settings are preserved.
8. If you are using Open book, you should do a fresh reinstall of this
program as well as, any other screen reading programs, on your w-10
computer.


2. ***Setting default programs in w-10.
1. windows key+I, Opens the settings area, search edit box.
Tab one time, You are in a horizontal list of 9 items, use your right and
left arrow keys to move across the items.

apps and press enter.
3. Tab across this window, look for the internet browser which by default is
Microsoft edge.
4. Press the spacebar on the edge, tab to IE 11, press the spacebar, this
will set IE as your default browser.
Do the same thing with all the different default programs, for example,
email clients.
5. Tab to, say, WLM email client default, press the spacebar on it, tab to
say, Outlook 2016, and press the spacebar, to set Outlook 2016 as your
default email client, .

So for an easier way of finding it, do the following.
1. Press the Windows key or Press enter on the Start button.
2. Start typing, file explorer options.
3. Press down and up arrow, look for File Explorer Options, Control Panel,
press enter.
4. By default, on the general tab the first item is set to Quick Access.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] customizing W-10 with Jaws, anniversary update

Hi Jaws users list, this is my updated section of my W-10 and Jaws, complete 
guide for the anniversary update to W-10. Please read and let me know what 
you all think about the guide. This helps me to determine if I am helping 
you all learn about W-10.


Section, Customizing Windows 10 with Jaws.

Customizing w-10 with Jaws.

Overview.
Each section starts with***.
1. Reinstalling Jaws 17.
2. Setting default programs in w-10.
3. Changing your folder options, now called File Explorer Options, in w-10.
4. How to Turn off the background apps in w-10.
5. How to change how Windows updates are delivered.
6. Live Tile Region, now called, pinns view list box.
7. The All Apps region, now called, apps view list box, of the Start button 
area.

8. How to put the, This PC, Icon on the Desktop.
9. How to put a shortcut to your user folders, on the Desktop.
10. Making Program shortcut Icons, on your Desktop.
11. How to put a shortcut, for iE on your Desktop or Taskbar.
12. Using a Pin to log-in to w-10.
13. How to Verify your Microsoft Account in Windows 10, I think this is 
correct.

14. Miscellaneous.
15. Making your W-10 desktop look like W-7.
16. The Notification area and the Notification Chevron button.

1. ***Reinstalling Jaws 17.
1. The first thing you may want to do on your Windows 10 computer is, 
Download the latest version of Jaws 17 to your Download folder.
2. If you upgraded to w-10 from w-7 or w-8.1, you should for best 
performance, uninstall Jaws, you can keep shared components and shared 
settings, so, uninstall Jaws 17.
3. You then can use Narrator, press Windows key+Enter, to turn Narrator 
on/off, to go to your download folder where a downloaded copy of Jaws 17 
should be already downloaded.

4. Now, install Jaws 17, Freshly on to your new w-10 computer.
5. This has proven to increase the performance of Jaws on w-10, especially, 
in the Start button area, and in the Settings area of w-10.

6. Redo your Jaws shortcut keystroke, Control+ALT+J.
7. Redo your Jaws setting to make sure, that it is set to come on at the 
log-onscreen.
For whatever reason these two settings are not saved, all other Jaws 
settings are preserved.
8. If you are using Open book, you should do a fresh reinstall of this 
program as well as, any other screen reading programs, on your w-10 
computer.



2. ***Setting default programs in w-10.
1. windows key+I, Opens the settings area, search edit box.
Tab one time, You are in a horizontal list of 9 items, use your right and 
left arrow keys to move across the items.
2. Right arrow to System, press enter, tab one time, down arrow to default 
apps and press enter.
3. Tab across this window, look for the internet browser which by default is 
Microsoft edge.
4. Press the spacebar on the edge, tab to IE 11, press the spacebar, this 
will set IE as your default browser.
Do the same thing with all the different default programs, for example, 
email clients.
5. Tab to, say, WLM email client default, press the spacebar on it, tab to 
say, Outlook 2016, and press the spacebar, to set Outlook 2016 as your 
default email client, .



3. ***Changing your File Explorer Options:
The “Old folder Options” is now called, File Explorer Options.
So for an easier way of finding it, do the following.
1. Press the Windows key or Press enter on the Start button.
2. Start typing, file explorer options.
3. Press down and up arrow, look for File Explorer Options, Control Panel, 
press enter.

4. By default, on the general tab the first item is set to Quick Access.
Down arrow one time to change it to, This PC if that is what you wish, I 
like the quick access setting better.
Tab to, browse folders, open each folder in the same window, radio button 
checked.
Tab again to, Click items as follows double click to open an item single 
click to select, radio button checked.
Tab again to, Privacy show recently used files in quick access, check-box, 
mine is unchecked, press the spacebar to change.
Tab again to, Privacy show frequently used folders in quick access 
check-box, mine is unchecked.

Tab again to, Privacy clear button, this will clear the privacy tabs.
Tab again to, Restore defaults button, this will reset all file explorer 
settings to the default settings.

Press Control+Tab, to go to the view tab of file explorer.
You land on, Folders view, reset folders button, this will set all folders 
to this view.

Tab again to, the treeview of files and folders.
I only make one change to these items.
Hide extensions for known files types off.
Now Shift+Tab to, reset folders view button, press enter, press the spacebar 
to confirm.

Tab to OK, press enter.

Keep up the great work!

Btw, I've received multiple requests to make a speakOneDrive. I intend 
to try, but I think I'll extend the functionality of speakDropbox and 
rename it so that it can speak various icons including One Drive. This 
would of course not use any more cpu time than it already does if not 
configured to support one drive or anything else besides dropbox, so 
let's not be concerned that such a change will result in increased cpu 
consumption if you just want it to work the way speakDropbox currently 
does. Any suggestions on a name for such a creature? Also, any further 
requests for tray icons to support? Google drive is not applicable as 
it doesn't actually display any useful status.



Just to be safe, I'm not positive I'm going to do anything yet, but I

[JAWS-Users] speakDropbox on windows 10 anniversary update

[valiant8086]

Hi.


I'm aware that speakDropbox isn't working properly on the Windows 10 
Anniversary update. I've got my local code fixed so that it again 
automatically reads the status changes and plays the associated sounds, 
but I'm having trouble getting it to support clicking on the Dropbox 
icon as you could do with two quick presses of the speakDropbox hotkey. 
Also, I've changed the open speakDropbox's own menu keystroke formerly 
alt+win+m, to alt+shift+win+m as alt+winn+m doesn't work in any windows 
10 version. That's an old fix that I never got published, but right now 
it's moot, because I can't even get it to open speakDropbox's own menu 
in the anniversary update. I may end up releasing a version that can at 
least read status changes on win10 but doesn't support the shortcuts to 
open the tray icons by simulating clicks on them. Better than nothing I 
guess. Either way, we should have at least somewhat of a fix in the next 
couple of days I hope. If I do issue an update that doesn't fix 
everything, a subsequent update later on that fixes the rest of the 
challenges provided I manage to work something out would be forthcoming.

Re: [JAWS-Users] WLM buffer issue

[David Ferrin]

So this is not only known but reproducible. It has been going on for a 
number of versions already. In fact I am not certain if it goes back further 
than 17 or not.

It does it in other mail programs too, Dave, particularly if the previous
message was a large html file i.e. something like the Komando newsletter.

This has been going on for quite some time already and I feel it is time 
to mention it. Often but not always while reading a list of messages the 
following happens. I delete a message and while the next message pops up 
JAWS just freezes until I either hit the 5 on the number pad or the up 
arrow. Then it starts reading normally. I figured it was some sort of 
hitch in the get along as the southern folks say, but it is annoying when 
it keeps happening.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Thunderbird

[Jim Pursley]

Anna..the program does not respond when it opens.  What do you have to 
do to get it to respond?  I need to tab from the first screen ttwice - 
first through the tree list and then to the email list. then all is fine.

Hi Jim,

I did what you said and made a hot key for Thunderbird and when you
press the hot key it does the same thing the program still does not
respond when it opens just like when I enter the icon on the desk top.

I sure wish I knew what is wrong with it this problem just started this
week.

well thanks for your help any way I will keep trying and let you know if
I figure it out.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Thunderbird

[Jim Pursley]

Agree, Mario, about opening/response time.  Version 45.2 seems to have 
increased the time between clicking a message open for reading and JAWS 
starting to read it.  This said, I select to read in HTML so I've always 
figured that HTML pages take awhile longer to load. But I thought Anna's 
latest issue on this thread related to opening the program.  I've 
noticed no more delay in getting the In Box than prior versions had - 
the In Box fills a message at a time.


I probably know a lot less about Tbird than either you or Maria know, 
but I'm learning.  I've no plans to bail to another email client.

[Greg Washington]

When on the column or row you want to autofit press  the alt key+h and then
the letter o to get to the right menu.  Then arrow up and down until you
find what you want to do.  HTH.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Thunderbird

try a hot key.  From the Thunderbird icon on the desktop hit the 
applications key and hit the letter r for properties.  Arrow down to 
shortcut key and write in the letter you want.  Tab to OK and hit 
enter.  Control alt plus your letter should open the program forthwith.
