Re: [JAWS-Users] accessing the autorecovery task pane with Jaws 10
I located the .asd, but then Word wanted to know what program I wanted to use to open it. I told it Word, but then got an error. I'll check the link later and see if I'm missing something along the way. Thanks for the information.

Re: [JAWS-Users] accessing the autorecovery task pane with Jaws 10
Have you tried to press F6? This normally moves between open panes. You might have to press F6 several times. It will eventually return you to where you started. However, I seem to remember resorting to poking around the entire screen with the JAWS cursor until I found a control on the pane (not a button), and pressing the left mouse button. You should then be able to go back to the PC cursor and move through the controls in the pane normally.

Re: [JAWS-Users] accessing the autorecovery task pane with Jaws 10
And if that doesn't do it, set JAWS cursor to unrestricted and use it to search. If it's there, the JAWS cursor should find it. Then rout PC to JAWS and you're in business. If you're lucky, though, there's an easier way. At 02:09 PM 5/30/2009, you wrote: Hello Sherri, If I remember correctly, the names of the recovered files are shown in the recovery task pane.
