Hi Flor, In fact, at least back as far as Win98, pressing the F6 key, or tabbing to the address bar, will show the file path of the current directory. I have the same issue here with WinXP Home,but something took place in the system that changed the file path from being displayed.

Mike, I'm not sure. Those instructions from FSReader may have been recorded quite a long time ago. Perhaps if you also enable Map Network Drives? But ever since I checked the Address Bar of Windows Explorer - in 2007 some time - it's worked as we have found it to, rather than how you may suppose it should. Perhaps the Address bar does not display anything until you've typed or edited something into it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Mike & Barbara" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, August 16, 2009 2:32 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Nothing showing in address bar in window's explorer > Hi Flor, > > Yes sir, Jaws reads " Address edit combo 0 items ".
