Re: [JAWS-Users] How Do I Change My Home Page in Internet Explorer
Hi Michele, I don't know the keystrokes offhand but I would first go to the Google page. Then go into the tools menu and into internet options. Under the General tab, press enter on save current page and that should do it.

Re: [JAWS-Users] How Do I Change My Home Page in Internet Explorer
Hi Michele, Probably the easiest way is to open the Run Dialog with, Windows key + R, type the URL of the home page you want to have as your default, www.google.com & press enter. This will take you to Google so, while in / on Google press, Alt + T, for tools, press the letter, O, for Options, & this will put you on the General tab, or 1 tab down from the beginning of the General tab. Tab once or twice to, Use Current button, & press the spacebar. This tells IE to use the current page as your homepage. Tab to, Okay, & press enter to save & close options. Now, close IE, & reopen, & Google should be your homepage. Take care. Mike Sent from my iBarstool.

Re: [JAWS-Users] How Do I Change My Home Page in Internet Explorer
another way you can do it is to bring up IE, go to the page that you want as your home page, Hit ALT-T, then arrow up to Internet Options and hit ENTER. TAB over to "use current" and hit the spacebar and then tab over to OK and hit the spacebar.
