I use FF 46 often and don't need any plug in for JAWS to announce the
download status. just press control+j while the download is in progress
and just wait a second or three. you can try pressing the insert+up
arrow or the insert+tab to hear the status repeated.
never needed the status plug in
although... I use JAWS 16. so if JAWS 17 doesn't announce the status of
the download after pressing control+j, then this would be a bug in 17...
I think?

Hi Tom,
With the download in progress try pressing, Control + J, & to hear again
press, Insert / Jaws key + Tab. You might have to have the Status add-on
installed, I don't recall, & I don't have Firefox installed to test it.
Take care.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] How To Get Download Status Reports With Firefox 46
Hello.
I am currently downloading and saving the latest version of Jaws 17, and I
have discovered that, in Firefox 46, I can't get the download percent status
indications like I used to in earlier Firefox versions.
My sighted wife was able to get the download percent notifications started
by clicking on a download status window at the top of the screen, but I'm
not sure how to get to that on the keyboard with this new version of
Firefox.
If anyone has any suggestions to remedy this issue, I'd appreciate them very
much.
