One of the choices is Adjust system volume and I hit enter on that choice. I then arrow to the volume level I want and hit enter and it's done. It is much quicker than this description.

This will open the volume control, and at that point you can simply use the up and down arrow keys, or the page up and down keys to change the volume level. Once you have the volume where you want it, simply alt + F4 to close the dialogue. Use caution when assigning a keystroke to your shortcut so that it does not conflict with a keystroke in another application. If you need help in creating a shortcut, let us know. HTH, Rick Justice Tomorrow's another day, another way! and if tomorrow never comes, problem solved! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kimber Gardner" <kimbersinbox1...@gmail.com> To: "jaws-users-list" <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Sent: Thursday, March 17, 2016 11:09 AM Subject: [JAWS-Users] Creating a shortcut key to control system volume Hi All, Is it possible to create a shortcut key/key combination to control the volume of jaws without having to open the systray then the speakers then the volume?
