Yes, it is all menus with submenus. Of course, ribbons seem to work fine. 

I called it Windows 10 2015 because I couldn't remember what the first
version of windows 10 was called (smile) I have tried to update, but that is
another story I am working on. But if updating would solve this problem, I
will work harder on the story. It is really inconvenient not to be able to
get out of submenus that you don't want to be within in the first place.

Thanks!

Hi,
Is this for all menus with submenus or just several? And you say you're
running a 2015 release of Windows 10?
Cheers,
Joseph

Subject: [JAWS-Users] getting stuck in submenus in Windows 10

Hello,

 

I am running Windows 10, the 2015 version, on a 64-bit Dell computer with
JAWS 17 and 18. The problem only happens in menus with submenus. When I am
arrowing through a menu that has submenus, I get stuck in the submenu. I
have a tough time getting out of the submenu and getting back to the main
menu. For example, If I go to the JAWS 18 icon on my desktop and press
enter, because the tandem item has a submenu it automatically opens and I
see "allow access to my computer ." and if I arrow down I see "get access to
a computer." If I arrow down again, I go back to "allow access to my
computer ." I have tried both left arrow and backspace to get out of
submenus, but they don't work. Escape just takes me out of the menu system
altogether. (I feel like that 1969 song "You got me going in circles" by
Friends of Distinction. Yikes! My age is showing.)

 

I have looked on the Freedom Scientific site and tried googling for an
answer, but this is a weird situation and difficult to describe for google.
Any ideas? Do I have something set incorrectly in Windows 10? Do keyboards
have drivers? I have looked on the Dell site for drivers with no luck. (My
search on Dell site just shows me a ton of keyboards I could buy.)

 

Any help will be greatly appreciated! Have fun!

 

Debby
