Re: [JAWS-Users] Disabling sticky keys
Thanks for the suggestion, but that checkbox was not checked. However, there was a link to setup sticky keys and when I clicked that a dialog came up where I could uncheck the checkbox to activate sticky keys with 5 quick presses of the shift key. So, your instructions got me to the right section, but one more step was needed.
