The extension to the file should just tell you the file type (JAWS should read Doc, docx, or pdf). I will email you instructions on how to set your default browser to Internet Explorer or Firefox.

Can someone tell me if this program, which seems to be new with Windows 10 is Jaws accessible? For instance, I entered on a file I wanted to open and the Edge launched, but I can't figure out how to actually access the file I want. Thank you. Sincerely, Lauren
