[JAWS-Users] Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
Hello all, I've heard about this on another list so thought I would pass this on. To make JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer: 1. Open Windows Explorer. Then, press insert+6 to open Configuration Manager. It should say, "explorerframe.jcf - JAWS Configuration Manager". This is fine as you should only do this for Windows Explorer. 2. Press alt+s to open the set options menu, then v to open the Verbosity Options dialogue box. 3. Tab to the preferences button corresponding to your current verbosity level and activate it. 4. Down arrow till you hear, "control type checked". Press space and you should hear, "control type not checked". 5. Press enter to activate the ok button. 6. Back in the Verbosity Options dialogue box, tab to the ok button and activate it. 7. Save your changes with ctrl+s. 8. Close Configuration Manager with alt+f4.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
Hi Chris; Thank you very much for this great tip but, with what Operating System does this tip refer to? In XP Pro & Home when you invoke the Windows key + E keystroke, Jaws reads, "My Computer, Tree view, My Computer Open ", then when you open the configuration manager jaws reads, " Internet Explorer .JCF Jaws Configuration Manager. " I tried opening Windows Explorer through Start Menu / Programs / Accessories / Windows Explorer and received the same results as using the Windows + E keystroke. The question is, how does a person get into the Windows Explorer .JCF using XP Home or Pro? All help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
That is, of course, using Windows XP.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
Hi Patti & Flor; I realize that Windows Explorer, My Computer, IE,etc are 1 in the same, per say. I asked the question so that someone with less Jaws experience wouldn't feel like they were doing something wrong when they got the My Computer or Internet Explorer message when the Windows key + E keystroke was invoked or accessing Windows Explorer through Start Menu / Programs / Accessories. Also, when not hearing Windows Explorer announced when opening the configuration manager. Now with the both of you explaining what happens some people won't feel reluctant to give this tip a try. Thanks for your responses and explanations. Take care.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
Odd! That is what I thought too and when I use Windows+E I get the announcement that windows explorer opens however Jaws+T tells me it is internet explorer 6 and Jaws+Q announces browsui.dll as does Jaws+6 when configuration manager comes up. The actual version of Internet Explorer running on this machine is version 8. Any ideas what is going on here? Thanks.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
Hi Dale; What email program are you running at the time you open Windows Explorer and invoke the Jaws/insert + Q keystroke? When I open W E with my Outlook Express running I get the IE6 message because, I'm assuming, Outlook Express6 is open but, when I invoke the Jaws/insert + Q keystroke with IE8 open I get Internet Explorer8. I am probably not explaining * why * worth a crap but, if I had even a clue of what I am talking about it would scare the hell out of me! I am just a lamen user of this squawk box. Perhaps someone with more experience will have a better explanation will chime in and explain * why * to both of us. LOL Take care.
