[JAWS-Users] feature to change how long jaws freezes for.
Hi all, I've heard that in jaws 18 in the latest release there is a feature that's not documented where in the dot ini file you can change how long Jaws stays silent before restarting. Has anyone heard about this and how to change it? -- Adam Morris Jaws certified 2016 email: a...@damorris.com For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] New KNFBReader app for Windows 10
From what I can tell, it does a brilliant job of scanning. I'm using a Cannoscan. I think that's what they're called. The small portable scanner.

Re: [JAWS-Users] C Cleaner Inquiry
Another work around, is to check the heading of each section. This will cause all of the checkboxes to be checked, so that when you come across them as you go through each of the items, the item will be checked by default, so all you have to do is uncheck them. I should also note that this method also forces the checkboxes to show, so no having to worry about the checkboxes being invisible anymore. Hope this helps. Scorpio -Original Message- From: Mike B.

Hello Mike: Try just going to the previous page with Alt-LeftArrow. BTW, You don't need Winrar, you could use 7-Zip instead, that handles .rar .zip .gz and others.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS & YouTube
Mike, I just took a quick look at the page without testing it. Here's how I handle such situations. Instead of pressing enter by itself when clicking on a link for one of the videos, press shift-enter, which will open that video in a new window. When you're done, just close that window with alt-F4. You'll be returned to the window with the original list. I hope this method works in this case. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

There are some types of data I want to retain, such as passwords. I go down the list item by item to make sure anything I want to preserve won't be deleted.

However, JAWS still fails to verbalize this detail for the other items until I go through the same process item by item. The reason it would be useful for JAWS to verbalize the status of each item in the list is that CCleaner doesn't check everything by default. For example, the default for passwords is unchecked. So, chances are when CCleaner runs, it won't delete items you want to keep. But you never know.

Re: [JAWS-Users] C Cleaner Inquiry
I appreciate the thought. However, I just followed these steps, and the result is a much worse problem. Now, when I arrow up or down the list of items to check or uncheck, only one item is verbalized at a time. I have to arrow down, tab once, shift-tab back to the list to hear the next item. Moreover, I can't change the status of any checkbox. I tried to undo this operation by deleting the new window class, but it hasn't changed the behavior. I also uninstalled and reinstalled CCleaner, but the behavior stays the same. Any suggestions for how I can undo the impact of this operation?
