You can in Office visit the trust center and approve all docs from a
specific source if you get a lot of docs from this person. I will have
to search for the path to the trust center if you want follow up.
Additionally, I've found that trying to save a protected doc results in
a Word/Excel dialog seeing if you want to remove protection. Click yes
and the process is quicker than using the ribbon menus.

Hi Tom,
Try the steps from any 1 of the notes below:
There is a way to turn off protected view for Word documents.
1. From within Microsoft Word, Press Alt F followed by the letter T for
Options and press Enter.
2. Press T to highlight Trust Center.
3. Press Tab until you get to Trust Center Settings and press Enter.
4. Use up and down arrow keys to highlight Protected View.
5. You can tab to four checkboxes, and you can uncheck the ones that you
feel are safe to uncheck. Perhaps the last one regarding data execution
should remain checked.
This is what I have done at my work location and all seems to be well.

Microsoft Office 2010 treats imported documents in a special way if they
originate on the Internet. The document is opened, but is placed in
something called "Protected View". Jaws will not read a document in that
state.
In this mode, if you use a Say All command, a message appears explaining
what Protected View is and why the document was handled that way.
To change from Protected View to an editable version, press Alt F and arrow
down to a button called "Allow Editing" and press Enter on that option.
Once the document has been altered in this manner, it will read normally.
It is recommended that the document be saved in the new editable format
since it will not remain in that condition if the user exits the document.

The protected view won't let jaws read and the non commercial use causes him
to not be able to edit
I have made a work around by tapping the right mouse button and escaping
then we f6 twice and tab once to enable in this document and tap the space
bar to accept
then he can read and write in the document but we need to do all this each
and every time
Keep Smiling,

I believe it has to do with security settings. I have no idea how or if
this can be changed.

You can fix this easily by going into trust center settings, then arrow down
to protected view and tabbing to the various file types in that dialog box,
then, for each file type, unchecking all of the check boxes.
It would appear that Jaws is not reading the dialog box correctly, and so it
may read as check the box to allow editing, however, this is not the case,
and the boxes must be unchecked. Make sure you arrow down the list of file
types, then tabbing to the checkbox to uncheck it.
The checkboxes should read as "Save" and "Open", though only some of them
have the open checkbox, but again, you'll have to do this for all file
types.
Hope this helps.

Hello,
I am using word 2010 with j14 918.
In the last version, 13, I could perfectly navigate in a protected view
documents. So now it seems impossible to do. Some of you can reproduce this
problem?
Best,
Juan.

I had that very same issue yesterday, and I went into the trust center and
unchecked the boxes for protected view and I was able to read it.

Take care.
