Re: [JAWS-Users] my computer in win 8
Hi Steven, yes, in windows 8 the shortcut windows key + E will open File Explorer, with the Computer folder as the current location. If you want any more information on File Explorer on windows 8, see the following guide for Jaws users: http://goo.gl/6oSse David. original message: Will Windows E still bring up the Explorer?

Re: [JAWS-Users] my computer in win 8
Hello, Yes Windows key plus e still brings up Windows Explorer. Most of the Windows 7 keystrokes still work as far as I am aware.

Re: [JAWS-Users] desktop icon to start menu
Hi Tom, This won't work for all your desktop icons, at least it doesn't for mine, but you can try the following. I'm also assuming that we're talking about a Windows 7 system. 1. Highlight / select an icon on the desktop that you would like to put a shortcut in the start menu for. 2. Press your applications/ context menu key, if your laptop has 1 but, if it doesn't the keystroke, Shift + F10, will open the context menu. 3. Arrow down to, pin to start menu, press enter. This should put a shortcut in your start menu for the icon you had selected on the desktop. As I stated earlier, I didn't get the, pin to start menu, option in the context menu for certain desktop icons. HTH Take care.

[JAWS-Users] Copy to flash drive
Hi all, I have XP and 14.0 and Outlook Express. I want to copy around 100 e mails that I have in various folders in Outlook Express and paste them on to a flash drive/thumb drive. {same thing?}. Do I just put the flash in to the USB port go to e mail, select all of the desired messages, then paste them in to the appropriate drive/device in My Computer? This seems easier than trying tocopy them in to My documents. Thanks for any help. Rich For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/
Re: [JAWS-Users] Copy to flash drive
Hi Rich, You have to save the email as some kind of file whether it be an .eml or, .txt file before you can copy it onto your flashdrive. As a test try to copy an email while it is close paste it somewhere. It won't work. It has to be saved as with a file extension to it in on order for it to be copied. So in short, you will need to save the emails somewhere outside of OE in order to be saved to your flashdrive. HTH Take care.
