If you type display theme in the start menu search box, and then hit enter on change the theme, or something like that, when tabbing around the dialogue, you might be able to find things like standard/classic themes etc, which should sort of be standard display configurations, but not too sure that'll affect start menu content as such - search for start menu in search box and see what you find, or look into other display dialogues.

Stay well

Hi Janie,

Apparently my menues are not showing up at all when I'm in the start menu,
according to Freedom Scientific's Tech Support.  So, they suggested going
back to the Windows default settings. Hopefully someone has information on
how this is done!  Thanks much, take care.
Mike

Maybe there is a setting we don't know of and some genius can suggest?
I can go to the start menu and tap the application key and up arrow to
properties and invoke the hot key/short key there
alt enter works as well
I have jaws 11/12
windows 7
Sorry not to be able to help you with other options!



Keep Smiling,

Hi Janie,

As I stated in my first post, when I press the application / context menu
key, shift + F10, right mouse click Alt + F for the file menu or any other
keystroke that might bring up properties, a send to option, or a shortcut
option does nothing!  What I mean to say all the above keystrokes don't do
anything when I invoke them, i.e, Jaws says nothing, I get nothing!  Are
these keystrokes supposed to work in the Start Menu?  If not, other than
changing display settings, which I have tried, what can I do to get these
keystrokes to work?  Thanks much, take care.
Mike

 Hello
 Did you try the application key and up arrow once? to properties
If this doesn't work, then use the application key and up arrow to send to
 sub menu and send to the desk top
 After getting the hot key then just delete from the desktop?
 Just a thought

 Hi All,

 I am attempting to open the properties of my Jaws shortcuts in my All
 Programs folder but, when I press the applications / context menu key,
shift
 + F10, Alt + Enter, the file menu, or do a right mouse click I cannot get
 the mentioned keystrokes to do anything.  I want to make shortcut
keystrokes
 for Jaws12 & 13 but, I would like to make them from the Start Menu rather
 than the Desktop.  As I would like to do for other shortcut keystrokes.
Am
 I supposed to able to open the properties / get access to shortcuts from
the
start menu? If not, other than the desktop, where in Windows7 32 bit, can
I
 make shortcuts from?  All advice / help will be greatly appreciated.
Thank
 much, take care.
 Mike
