Hey there, thank you for your input. So here is what happends.
If I shift tab I hear tree view, if I arrow down to music and I hear jaws
say music closed, I arrow left, and I hear jaws say Michael Jackson closed,
and of course I arrow left and it opens the folder
Then Itab and it takes me to the tracks.
So a different way of doing it but I guess a work around.
I do like hitting the enter key much better, this new way gives me a few
more keystrokes that would be nice to avoid.

Hi.
Could be you're somehow winding up with keyboard focus somewhere besides
the list box. This is a relatively common issue for me, you might try
shift+tabbing a couple of times and see if you can land focus back on
the list view.
Btw, I'm guessing you know this already but just in case, when you hit
enter on folders, JAWS isn't opening them, that's just Windows behaving
as it should to your keyboard input, and JAWS is just there to let you
know what's on screen.
Sorry if this seems extraneous. I feel drawn to point these things out
though because knowing these things can really help make efficient use
of one's computer in situations where there is no screen reader and one
is trying to get something done with no speech, or using a completely
different screen reader and you can benefit from knowing what
functionality will be consistent as it wasn't a screen reader thing to
begin with.

Hi listers,
Has anyone had this issue, or knows how to fix it.
My issue is this, I'm using windows 10 and latest jaws 17.
I updated jaws a few days ago and today I sat down to sort some music on
my
laptop.
I opened file explorer through a shortcut I have on my desktop which is my
music folder. I hear jaws say music multiview list box not selected
Michael
Jackson 1 of 4.
I arrow up and down through the folder and jaws announces the different
files.
I hear the file I want for example Michael Jackson and I hit enter on my
keyboard, and jaws opens it.
And then I hear jaws say Michael Jackson multi view list box track 1 not
selected, and then here's the problem.
I can't up and down through the files with the arrow keys jaws announces
absalutley nothing.
No matter what I do with the arrow keys no response, I alt tab back into
the
window but nothing.
My laptop is a touch screen, so if I put my finger on the screen and move
it
around jaws announces the file names for example track 1 or track 2, and
if
I double tap with my finger on the screen it opens the file as expected.
Does anyone know how to fix this? Could one of my jaws settings have
gotten
screwed up with the update? Or maybe windows update screwed up something
with jaws? Any ideas on how to fix this?i want to be able to use my
keyboard to go through my files and open them like before, I don't want to
use the touch screen. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards
Zoe
