Thanks for your suggestions. I will keep looking around and asking questions. After doing this, I will give the microsoft technicians a call and see what they have to say. I really like this feature.

I used Firefox, which is my browser of choice. I assumed the "e-mail link" was a very similar option to the "send link to"...in IE. When you do this, it should open your e-mail client. How do you normally send links to someone, if not by e-mail? Well, I just opened internet explorer, which I still have on the PC of course, despite not using it. I open the "send to" submenu, and from here I can choose either "send page by e-mail", or "send link by e-mail", and of course there is also a item for sending a shortcut to your desktop. I also note that, like you, nothing happens when I choose these e-mail options. I assume this is because I don't use IE and have not set it up to work with outlook, or, indeed, any e-mail client. Is this a new computer or OS setup you are using? How recently did this in fact work for you? I do not not know why this doesn't work in IE, and it does in firefox. I checked program associations and of course they are fine. So unless someone else has a different idea, I would suggest trying something else. IE, pasting the article directly into an e-mail, or simply copying the link and opening the message manually, pasting the liink therein. You could also do a google search to see if others are experiencing the same issue. A quick look on my part would seem to suggest this is so, but I'm planning to stick to firefox as my browser of choice, wehre everything works properly, more or less. :) -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Fred Adams Sent: December 7, 2017 11:29 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Problem sending articles I am using IE 11 browser and when I am on a web site and reading an article that I would like to forward to some else I run into this problem. I press the alt key and then arrow up to send to and then arrow to send page or down arrow to send link and press enter key nothing happens. I have used this many times over the years just fine. I have not been able to find my problem. I am not talking about forwarding an email from the end box. Hope I have made myself clear. The problem must be in my settings.

Are you talking about sending a link via e-mail? If so, this should open whatever e-mail client you are using. This works fine for me with Windows 10, Firefox ESR 52 and MS Outlook 2010. They all play nice together. Maybe check your applications in your browser. You should have one for "e-mail. Make sure it's something you actually have set up/are using. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Fred Adams Sent: December 7, 2017 9:45 AM To: post jaws-users Subject: [JAWS-Users] Problem sending articles I am using W10 and jaws 2018 and I am not able to send articles or links from web site I am reading. When reading an article that I am reading would like to forward to someone I press the alt key and arrow up to send to and right arrow to send page or down arrow to send link and press enter but nothing happens. Has something changed with W10 or do I have a setting turned off some place. Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks much, FRED C.
