So what about if I install an update? Is that why the hot key disappeared, because I installed the last few updates?

So for example when Jaws 19 comes out you will have to put the hotkey back in again. Just remember that. Also if you go to the Jaws website and get a complete version of Jaws with an update and install it you will have to reinstall the hotkey for Jaws.

Thanks so much. I just did it. I was so sure I'd set it up but I think it was with old directions for an old version of Jaws.

Here are the steps to do that. 1. Press windows + M to go to your desktop. 2. Press the letter J until you hear Jaws 18. 3. Press the application key and arrow up one time and press enter on properties. 4. Tab two times and you should hear short cut key. If it says none then press the letter J If it says shortcut key ctrl+alt+J then just press the escape key. 6. Now tab until you hear ok, then press enter. Another dialog box may come up just press yes or continue then you should be done. Now you should have a shortcut key so when you press ctrl+alt+J it should start Jaws. Now if you use the other hotkey that now should work.

I wrote down to press Jaws key plus windows key plus F4 and this turns off Jaws. And if I press these keys again, they act as a toggle. Am I supposed to press them simultaneously? When I press them the first time, I can see with my hugely magnified Magic that the screen changes. But I haven't gotten Jaws to restart with those keys or with any others. I am having to resort to turning the computer off with the button and then turning it on again. Even though I can see that I've moved to the screen that says, "Shut Down", the key strokes don't work. But, after I press the button, just before the screen changes, Jaws says something, but then the computer shuts down. I have a 64 bit windows 7 computer. I'd sell my soul for a key stroke that would just get Jaws working again without having to shut down the computer and wait for it to start and load.
