Hi Jennifer, To shut down Jaws the keystrokes are, Insert / Jaws Key + F4, then Enter or, Insert / Jaws Key, Windows Key, + F4. The keystroke, Insert + J, is for opening the Jaws context menu when running Jaws from the System Tray.
Here is 1 set of steps to create a shortcut keystroke for starting Jaws: 1. Go to the Desktop by invoking the keystroke, Windows key + M, or, Windows Key + D. 2. Press the letter, J, until you land on the JAWS icon. 3. Press Alt + Enter to bring up the JAWS Properties page. 4. Tab to the Shortcut key field, and type in the shortcut key combination of your choice, like Alt-Control-J or whatever other combination you prefer. 5. Tab to Apply button, hit Space, then tab around again to the Okay button and hit Space. That's it. Now, when you press Alt-Control-J or whatever shortcut key you assigned, JAWS will be launched. HTH. Take care. Mike This email was sent from my, iGoDodgersBarstool. ----- Original Message ----- From: Jennifer Aberdeen via Jfw To: The Jaws for Windows support list.

How do I turn Jaws back on after turning it off? I thought it was alt+control+J, but that doesn't seem to work. I had shut Jaws off so my sighted niece could use my computer without any annoyance from Jaws, but the only way I know how to get it back on is if I restart my computer.
