For one thing I want nothing to do with Chrome at this time, so that's not a factor with me. I'm just simply amazed at the level of such differing situations, such as the horrible time Tom Beller has had with IE 11.   Maria Campbell lucky1i...@gmail.com When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace. --Attributed to Jimi Hendrix On 1/29/2016 4:32 PM, Adrian Spratt wrote: After installing the latest release of JAWS 17, I’m getting limited menu access in IE11. For example, if I press the alt key to bring up the file menus, only “file” and “help” are available. With the JAWS cursor, I know edit, favorites, etc., are there, but I can’t access them.   I can get to favorites with alt-a. Here again, however, I encounter this weird binary situation where only two “favorites” are available to me.   I’m having a similar experience with Chrome with the right-mouse-click menu on links. (this undoubtedly explains the problem I had yesterday following Brian’s suggestion for handling PDF files in Chrome.)   I say this all occurred after I installed the current JAWS 17 release, but I’m not sure it’s the cause. I’m pretty sure I went into IE after installing the update and initially had no problems.   I also found this morning that JAWS wasn’t reading character-by-character in Word 2010. Fortunately, I fixed this problem by a combination of Office 2010 repair and a JAWS repair using the .exe file for the current release. However, these fixes made no difference to IE.   For the record, I also ran a Malwarebytes scan, and no problems were detected. Also, I’ve had no Windows updates in the past two days.   I lean toward thinking this is a JAWS problem. Has anyone experienced it and, if so, did you find a fix? _._,_._,_ -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/ JFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@groups.io To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw+unsubscr...@groups.io Archives located at: http://www.groups.io/g/jfw/threads Alternative archives located at: http://n2.nabble.com/JAWS-for-Windows-f2145279.html If you have any concerns about the list, posts received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
