You were probably running JAWS from the system tray. Go to the options menu and then to basics. Check the box that says "run JAWS from system tray" and use the space bar to check it. Then tab to ok and press enter. You will need to restart JAWS for the setting to work. Now when you press insert J, you will go right to the menu.

This is no different than previous versions, you can't tab around in the jaws window like you can with window-eyes and cobra and narrator. In the jaws home use window, use the alt key to go to the menu bar. You should be able to get the options menu from there. Likely it'll be the first menu you get, so you ought to be able to press alt, and then press enter to open the options menu. Is this what you're looking for?
