You wouldn't have to find it on the desktop. Just hit windows key+r, and type in "jaws17" or "jaws18", depending on what version you want. Then, there it is.

[JAWS-Users] What, exactly, is a "region" (html navigation)
Hi everyone. I was recently talking to some people designing a website, and attempting to describe the experience using a screen-reader. I explained about quick navigation, the virtual cursor/buffer, and the various types of elements to which a screen-reader can quickly position its reading cursor. Although I have yet to talk to the actual developer, and I think he might have a greater understanding of this, I was unable to adequately describe a "region", and how navigating by regions, or quickly jumping to the "main region", has become essential on, for example, my bank website, which is full of junk. Essentially, nobody seemed very familiar with this idea of "regions". I found this page: https://www.w3.org/TR/wai-aria-practices/examples/landmarks/region.html Which provides a decent explanation. I'm still only vaguely sure what aria is, though. Does anyone familiar with web-coding on the list feel like chiming in, I wonder?
