Well I done fixed my default browser. I had inadvertently changed it to Edge
from IE, which was my former default. I went into the browser Firefox and
changed it there no problem.

Or you can open the browser you want and set the "default" option there.
Doing so will automatically un-default the current default browser. I've
found no difference among browsers in the way PDF files are handled,
especially if you have PDF files set to open in Adobe instead of the
browser.

 

True, I'm using Windows 7, but I imagine these conditions work across
Windows platforms.

I did what you suggested and it did not work.

Hi Lauren,

 

I'd suggest you change your default browser to Internet Explorer or Mozilla
Firefox depending on which one you wish to use.  To do this, hit your left
windows key to bring up the search box.  Then type default browser and arrow
to that choice and press enter.  Tab if necessary and you will find Edge
which is likely your default web browser.  Hit the space barr on that button
and you should get a choice of browsers to choose from.  Pick the browser
you wish and press enter.  Once changed, Edge will not launch automatically.
It is likely you cannot uninstall Edge, but even if you could, I wouldn't
recommend that as at some point, Jaws will work with it and hopefully, it
will be a better experience than Internet Exploder is.  Yes, I meant to say
Exploder.

Hi: 

 

When I try to open an attachment in Outlook 2013 using Jaws 17 and Windows
10, I right clicked and pressed enter on open and was hoping to get a choice
of which program to open the file, but it automatically opens it in
Microsoft Edge, rendering the file inaccessible to me. Should I uninstall
Edge, will that effect Jaws or Windows OS or how to I get rid of it being
the default program to open files in Outlook? 

 

Please advise! Thank you. 

 

Sincerely, 

 

Lauren
