Why is it unacceptable? If a simple keystroke can solve a real annoyance, I'm relieved. In fact, I use JAWS key+escape out of habit in all sorts of situations, such as where edit fields fail to be detected by JAWS in webpages.
However, it does not solve this particular email problem. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List <jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com> On Behalf Of Dennis Long Sent: Monday, April 30, 2018 6:19 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] still having issue with Outlook and HTML messages They told me to press insert plus escape I wrote back that is unacceptable -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Cher Bosch Sent: Monday, April 30, 2018 4:12 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] still having issue with Outlook and HTML messages I don't like having the links killed. Here is what VFO wrote back today. I'm trying out changing to running JAWS in the factory default mode. Cher Hello Cher, Thank you for contacting VFOT Technical Support. Please ensure all Windows updates, including Office updates, are installed and applied. If the issue persists at that point, please try running JAWS in the factory default mode to determine if the issue still occurs. To do this, press INSERT+SPACE followed by Z. This keystroke is a toggle, so pressing it again will disable default mode when finished. If the issue does not occur when running JAWS in default mode, you will need to remove user settings. To do this: 1. If using Windows 7: A. Navigate to Start>All Programs>JAWS (version number)>Explore JAWS>Explore My Settings. B. Highlight all the files in this folder and delete them. 2. If using Windows 8 or above: A. Navigate to your Start screen, type the word "utilities", and select the Utilities option populated for the version number being used. B. Select the option for Explore User Settings. C. Highlight all files in this folder and delete them. If the issue still occurs when running it in Default mode, please run a /type repair on JAWS, as follows: 1. Navigate to the JAWS 2018 installer file. If you don't have it, you may download it from http://www.freedomscientific.com/Downloads/JAWS 2. With the file highlighted, press SHIFT+F10, or hold down the SHIFT key and right click it. 3. Select the option that says "Copy as Path". 4. Press WINDOWS+R to invoke the Run dialog. 5. In the edit field, press CTRL+V to paste the path, then a space at the end of this string. 6. Write the following text exactly (excluding the quotes): "/type repair" 7. Press ENTER or click OK. At the end of the repair, JAWS will prompt you to reboot the machine. If this does not resolve the issue, set Outlook back to default views, as follows: 1. Close Outlook. 2. Press WINDOWS+R to invoke the Run dialog. 3. In the edit field, type the following without the quotes "outlook.exe /cleanviews". 4. Press ENTER. 5. If the issue persists, repeat steps 1 and 2 above. 6. In the edit field, type the following without the quotes "outlook.exe /resetnavpane". 7. Press ENTER. If your issue is still not resolved after having tried all suggestions above, please call our Support hotline at (727)803-8600 for further troubleshooting over the phone. We are available Monday-Friday from 8:30 AM to 7:00 PM EST.

Either JAWS or Outlook must be closed to resolve this. I have hoped to see this fixed several versions ago and am continually disappointed. This problem occurs in multiple versions of JAWS- including the latest 2018 April update- in multiple versions of Outlook and on both Win 7 and Win 10- and is being experienced by many users. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Dennis Long Sent: Monday, April 30, 2018 9:04 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] still having issue with Outlook and HTML messages Did that is there anyway when changing it to read email in plain text to have it put you at the top of the message automatically? -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Dave...Oregonian Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2018 9:25 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] still having issue with Outlook and HTML messages Dennis, Please then send a message to supp...@freedomscientific.com and complain.

Cher -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of JOHN RIEHL Sent: Saturday, April 28, 2018 10:39 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: [JAWS-Users] still having issue with Outlook and HTML messages Hi. I'm still having the vexing and annoying issue of the latest issue of JAWS periodically changing how it reads Outlook messages (windows-7, Outlook 2010). JAWS will be doing a great job of reading a message, then, for no apparent reason, when I bring up the next message, read all kinds of info: "Table 1, row 1, nesting level 3." etc. I have to close Outlook and, sometimes, JAWS and bring them back for JAWS and Outlook to function normally again. I'm doing nothing to cause this to happen except bringing up the next e-mail message. This does not happen with every message, but it is repeatable, in that if I read e-mail long enough it will, inevitably, happen. Frankly, this is unacceptable. It would be helpful if the VFO folks who monitor this list could at least acknowledge the problem. I'm happy to spend time on the phone with VFO tech support so they can see the problem. I know I'm not the only one who is experiencing this issue. Thanks. John, a frustrated JAWS user. PS For whatever reason, this does not happen at work with JAWS Professional and Outlook 2013. Thanks.
