If you press alt+enter on the This PC icon, this will bring up the system properties, in which case, you have to tab to system tools, press enter, then tab to disk clean up, where you can choose which drive you wish to run the disk clean up wizard on. An easier way of accomplishing this task is to open up This PC, then arrow to the drive you wish to run a disk clean up on, and press alt+enter. This will bring up the drive's properties, then tabbing to the disk clean up button, you can press the spacebar, and the wizard will automatically scan your drive for unnecessary files to be deleted. I can't remember if it will delete cookies and the like, as I think you'll have to go into Internet Options for that, but at least you'll be able to delete temporary internet files and Windows temp files and such like. I should also point out that when you have the drive's properties opened, a press of control+tab will take you to the tools page of the drive where you can run a scan disk, a defrag and a back-up, depending on your preference.

The Defragmentation service is true, as Windows 10 keeps your hard drive defragged constantly so as to maximize the storage space and it's information retrieval. In terms of the Disk clean up, I don't believe this has been automated in Windows 10, but as of Windows 8.1, disk clean up is still a manual task, though, I suppose that you can automate it by setting it as a scheduled task once a week, or so, but again, you can always set Internet Explorer to empty temporary internet files automatically once you finish browsing. That has always been in the Internet Explorer settings, but in terms of emptying out your recycle bin, or cleaning up dump files and/or log files, those you must do manually, since the computer can never know which ones you want to delete and which ones you don't.

If you press alt+enter on the This PC icon, this will bring up the system properties, in which case, you have to tab to system tools, press enter, then tab to disk clean up, where you can choose which drive you wish to run the disk clean up wizard on. An easier way of accomplishing this task is to open up This PC, then arrow to the drive you wish to run a disk clean up on, and press alt+enter. This will bring up the drive's properties, then tabbing to the disk clean up button, you can press the spacebar, and the wizard will automatically scan your drive for unnecessary files to be deleted. I can't remember if it will delete cookies and the like, as I think you'll have to go into Internet Options for that, but at least you'll be able to delete temporary internet files and Windows temp files and such like. I should also point out that when you have the drive's properties opened, a press of control+tab will take you to the tools page of the drive where you can run a scan disk, a defrag and a back-up, depending on your preference.

Re: [JAWS-Users] how to create email signatures in outlook 2013 with JAWS 16?
Dacia, here they are: 1. Alt f to get to the file menue. 2. T to get to options. 3. Arrow down once to mail. 4. Tab six times to get to the word signature. 5. Hit your spacebar. 6. Tab three times. 7. it will read signature to edit. 8 Arrow up or down until you find the email address that you want to use with your signature. 9.Tab twice, and it will say, New signature. 10. Hit enter. 11. Type a name for your signature. I usually use the account name or subject name, so I don't forget on which emails I want the signature. 12. Tab and space on the okay button. 13. Then you land on the signature page. As you tab read your choices for font, etc. 14 When you get to the edit box type in your signature, then tab and check the okay button. 15. You are then given a screen of other choices. Tab through to decide whether you want to check or uncheck any of these boxes. Once you tab to the okay button and click it, you are back in your inbox and have created your signature. 16. If you have a single account your signature should be placed in your message automatically. These were sent to me by a lister. I appreciated them, but with 16 steps, I usually copy mine, when I send my first e-mail, then paste it until I copy something else like I did here. Then I just write it and copy it again for the time being. I keep hoping someone has simpler steps for doing that.

So, I'm wondering if I'll have a similar issue.

Using IE 11, when I encounter a Google search result that is labled as a PDF and activate the link, the document will not get processed by Adobe Reader XI which is also already installed on this computer. I did a little investigating and discovered that the Adobe PDF Reader add-on for IE 11 is not listed on the list of add-ons on the Manage Add-Ons option on the IE 11 Tools menu. This means that the Adobe PDF Reader add-on was probably never installed and therefore, , IE 11 cannot process PDF documents. So how do I install the Adobe PDF Reader add-on in IE 11?

Mike, is that Office 2013? I tried it, but it didn't look like that.

I use notes all the time. Here are some of my comments about notes: With Control+Shift+n, it is really easy to open a new note and jot down notes about anything you want. During a phone call I create a note and jot down notes from the conversation create a note to keep a To-Do list throughout the day by adding items as I think of them, and deleting them as they are completed., If someone is giving me their contact information, I put it in a note, and then copy and paste the various pieces of information into a contact when I have more time. Just press Escape when you are done with the note. It is automatically saved in the Notes folder. I have my notes arranged in a list with the newest note at the top of the list. When you do not need a note any more, navigate to the note in the list, and press the delete key just as you do to delete an e-mail message. The notes look like a small square sticky note. Those with sight change the colors of the notes to represent a category of note. I do believe that you can assign an Outlook category to a note just as you can do with a message. You can create subfolders under the Notes folder and moves notes into the folders, or create a new note while you are in that folder.

Re: [JAWS-Users] using outlook 2013 with JAWS 16
I have the same programs, and so far have not experienced that. My biggest problem in Outlook is being able to keep Sender's address and read an e-mail address, which I used to be able to do by using the Applications key and going into Properties. How long have you have them? I've had mine for only a week, in fact, a week today. Actually, JAWS was loaded late last Saturday afternoon. My husband was savvy enough to hold off on JAWS to the very last so that it would be least effected by loading of things. We did transfer my e-mails the next day, but otherwise, JAWS was last. He said that he had a time of it getting 13 off the old computer, which he stripped to just about bare bones to use as an extra back up for himself. He has thousands and thousands of picture files.

Re: [JAWS-Users] using outlook 2013 with JAWS 16
So far, you are making sense. I wanted to forward a birth announcement last night, and when I put in my cousin's first two letter her name came up. Then when I wanted to send it, a user on one of our lists name came up. Finally, I deleted that name, knowing I could get it again, so tried again, and the one that had been right under the list user's name came up, so I started tabbing and tabbing, and finally got out of that and think I got it sent to only my cousin. The other person is in England, so I might never know, since when she gets back home might just delete all her e-mails. Thanks for help. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of LeDon Sent: Saturday, August 15, 2015 1:46 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] using outlook 2013 with JAWS 16 OK, here's what I do. First I open outlook. Then to send an email, I press, ctrl n. That brings up an email and jaws announces , to. So then you know that you have to type in the name or email address you want this email to go to. I start typing the name of the person that I want to send the email to, Elaine, for instance. When I have entered , the letter, E, outlook tries to fill in the email address for me. If the wrong one comes up I use the arrow keys to search for her. If Elaine is not one of my email contact cards and I have never sent her an email then she will not come up. Then I have to make a contact card for her. To make a contact card you must be in your outlook list, then you type ctrl, Y to bring up the contact card and fill it out. Then the next time you want to send her an email, she will be filled in your, to, box as soon as you start to type her name. Here's the thing, the, to, box should be automatically filled in for you if you have a contact card or if you have ever sent her a email to her. For instance, if I have replied to an email that you sent me, then when I want to send you an email, I just start typing your name in the, to, box, because outlook conveniently keeps a list of all of the emails that I have replied to your name will come up. Nice, isn't it? I don't know if this all makes since to you. But if you would like to contact me off of the list I will try to explain it better.

Re: [JAWS-Users] question about exporting contacts to outlook?
Ask someone on the list, but I think that if you go Alt F and go through the prompts, there are import and export. You would be exporting from Century Link and Importing to Outlook, which of course you know. I think that the pathways are in Alt F. What I don't know is the process to establish the destination to Century Link and be sure that it arrives in Outlook intact. Good computer guy only got my addresses and not my distribution lists. We knew that going in, that probably they would not transport. I did have my addresses backed up in a document file so that worst case, we could re-enter all of them by hand.

Of all the things I disliked, having no control of updates was at the top of the list, closely followed by Edge, and also the lack of decent accessibility options for low vision users.

There is a solution since Internet Explorer is also an option with Windows 10 and apparently, Windows Live Mail and Outlook do work with the new operating system. 3. Is there enough of a difference between Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 to make the change worth the transition? 4. Will Jaws be able to work with Edge and the e-mail client later on?

I used my KNFB reader ap to check the progress; however, the only time I needed visual assistance was at this window that stated express settings and once next was clicked, narorator began telling me it was getting my comp ready and aps were being loaded etc. My jaws began talking which is where I'm confused, because I read that we must reinstall jaws but all is working so should I reinstall jaws?

After removing and reinstalling, the apps area and the tile area worked much smoother. Microsoft also recommends a fresh install of Jaws 16 after installing windows 10 from either w-7 or w-8.1. It is not that difficult to do. After uninstalling jaws 16, turn on Narrator with windows key+enter, to close the programs and features window, and go to restart your computer, press enter. Wait for a reasonable time until you know that the sign in screen is up, type your password and press enter. Again, wait for a reasonable time, press windows key+enter to start Narrator. go to your download folder where you will have put the jaws 16 program file, down arrow to the jaws file. press caps lock key+escape to exit narrator, or skip this step and wait until the installation of jaws has started to close narrator. , now press enter on the Jaws 16 program file to start installation. Depending on your computer you will either have to press enter again for the Jaws instillation, or the ALT+y, for the users account dialog which will pop up. finish installing Jaws, Important, if you chose to keep your share settings, which I would and did do on my computer. jaws 16 will install and after you hit finish, it will come on speaking, no restart. Make sure you reset your short cut start up key for jaws. Make sure you check the setting and check the box for jaws to come on at the log on screen before restarting.

Re: [JAWS-Users] How can I kill jaws 15 without killing jaws 16?
Ron, several years back, I got rid of an earlier JAWS, maybe 8 or 7, after loading 9, but the guy from Freedom Scientific helped me, so I can't remember exactly what we did. I'd hate to tell you what I think I remember and it not be right. Now, I make a record of any kind of instruction, but even now, if I'm on the phone with them, I just do whatever they tell me to do, in order to take as little of their time as possible, since I know they have a lot of customers to serve.

Jim, of course, no screen reader got 8, then updated to 8.1. He had signed for 10 when available. Last night it appeared, so he down loaded. It took about an hour.

Also, in yesterday's issue of the Flying Blind email, there was a good article on How to Install Windows 10, and it covered doing it from Windows 8.1 and Windows 7, the two processes are quite different. From other material that I read from Freedom Scientific, it seems that but for the Edge browser and the Mail app in Windows 10, Jaws and the new operating system should get along very well at this time.

Best to you from, Carolyn - Original Message - From: Liuda balciu...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Thursday, July 30, 2015 8:41 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Google Search Results Not Numbered Good evening. Having Google results numbered or not numbered does not affect you, IF you do not use this feature often. If you are using Google and read results occasionally, this is not a problem. For some of us, we use this feature often to carry out certain responsibilities in life and the work we do. When I read the results and they are numbered, then as I go through each individually downward, I mentally note which numbered results are the best and would be the first to be researched. When at the bottom, then I can recall that numbers 2 and 5 are the first I need to research. Now, if the results are NOT numbered, then I must start from the top and perhaps go through them a couple of times to again orientate myself and determine where those results are which if numbered are a snap to access. Again, for those who do not use Google often, this may not be a concern. For others of us who must use Google as a considerable part of our daily life experiences, then time becomes a real factor. I am in the process of editing a book and moderate 3,300 members of Yahoogroups forums. For each I must do a great deal of research, not to mention other aspects of my computer operations. I hope this helps to explain it further for everyone. If you need a certain feature to be easily accessible in JAWS to make your life so much easier, I am on your team and eager to help you. In the same token, I hope there can be some solution to this problem, so I don't need to use JAWS 14 more than I use JAWS 16. Right now as I write this message, I am using JAWS 14, even though 16 is totally paid for and updated.
