Cc: Nicole Massey Subject: RE: Jaws question Note also that some other programs set up the alt+ctrl+J shortcut, so it's wise to hit it while Jaws is working to find out what comes up and if it's not Jaws then change that shortcut. One of the Nero programs does this, for instance. > -----Original Message----- > From: Jfw [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Michal > Nowicki via Jfw > Sent: Thursday, April 23, 2015 9:50 PM > To: 'The Jaws for Windows support list.' > Cc: Michal Nowicki > Subject: RE: Jaws question > > Alt plus Ctrl plus J works only if you previously enable it as a > shortcut to start JAWS; there actually is no default shortcut to > launch JAWS, so I'm not surprised you can't find one.
