Hi Jm, I misunderstood the question. I thought she meant selecting & copying in general. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool.

Mike.... She was asking about Edge, specifically. Does that even work in Windows 7? I was under the impression it's for Win 10 only; maybe 8.1. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Mike B.

I post all updates & direct download for them whenever I find out about them, but I can be a little slow about it being I'm not up to date like all the cool / hip people! LOL Anyways, I'm running Windows 7, & selecting / copy text does work with Jaws 2018. Take care. Mike. Go Dodgers! Sent from my iBarstool.

Smile.. I'm currently running JAWS 18 with the September 2017 update. I got no notification of a later update and the Check For Updates in the Help menu confirms that I'm running the most current version. But I found this on the JAWS website: JAWS 18.0.4350 64-bit English - October 2017 The following is a list of improvements made between the JAWS 18 September 2017 release and the October 2017 update. list of 3 items . Resolved a customer reported issue with the 8400 series of Outlook 365 updates where JAWS was not automatically reading the suggested addresses when typing in the address fields of a new message. To check your Outlook 365 version, use the JAWS command CTRL+INSERT+V while focused in Outlook. . Addressed issues where Edge would unexpectedly stop working while navigating on various pages. . Added new Research It lookup sources to the French version of JAWS for two libraries for the blind in France. list end I found this only because I was helping a friend set up Edge and her arrows weren't reading down the page. A JAWS tech told her there was an October update. My Edge is reading properly. Should I put the new update in anyway? I plan to download 2018 but It will probably be a month or two before the Fall Creator's update finds my computer, so I thought I'd let more technical people test-drive the 2018 version of JAWS for the next few weeks. Also, the JAWS tech told my friend, if she understood correctly, that there is no virtual cursor in Edge. When I've tried to copy material in Edge, JAWS says, "selection using the virtual cursor is not yet supported in Edge." I had assume from this that the virtual cursor is being used. And my last comment, for those of you running JAWS 2018, are you now able to select and copy text, or is this still in the works? Thanks.
