You have made the same unfortunate discovery I made previously the only available keyboard layouts now are the default and the laptop layout I myself never used the jaws keyboard layout however I often use the vocal-eyes keyboard layout when I needed to control window eyes using Dragon NaturallySpeaking unfortunately I know of no way of getting these keyboard layouts back however there is a utility that ships with window eyes that will help you the jaws user learned the default window eyes layout it is called jaws quick key. you simply press ensert j. You will then be prompted for the key you wish to press at this point issue the jaws command for example say title ensert t. You will be informed that the window as command is title and status of program control shift t another good reason this layout was removed is because under Windows 7 and Windows Vista the Windows and number pad commands are now system commands and because of the nonaggressive way window eyes hooks into the keyboard these commands are no longer usable by window eyes and they were used rather heavily in the jaws keyboard layout this does not explain however why the vocal-eyes keyboard layout was removed I hope that helps

If it is still available, how do I find it? Thanks. If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
