Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS2018 & Windows10 -Login & BitLocker
I am using Jaws 2018 build 1710.42. It did improve some issues on my personal laptop, but has done nothing to address issues at work. I heard that there was an update that came out today. I'll give it a try, but I really think it has more to do with the security policies at work.

Frequently JAWS appears to be clipped when it initially launches prior to the login screen. When this happens, JAWS does not come back until after the user has logged in and they are on the desktop.

In addition, sometimes BitLocker comes up and wants some type of action from the user. Besides figuring out what is triggering what now appears to be a random launching of BitLocker, I am looking for any tips on how a JAWS user can get through BitLocker when it does come up. I'm guessing that there is not a solution.

Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS2018 & Windows10 -Login & BitLocker
There was a Jaws 2018 update pushed out this morning which among other things, addressed some log on issues with Windows 10. I haven't experienced these issues, but maybe give it a shot. -Original Message- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Joseph Lee Sent: Tuesday, December 12, 2017 8:44 AM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] JAWS2018 & Windows10 -Login & BitLocker Hi, A few questions: * Is this really a Windows 10 Version 170x machine? The new Narrator command is available from 1703 onwards. If Control+Windows+Enter doesn't work, try Windows+Enter. * Sounds like BitLocker (Pro and higher) is told to prompt you for a pin or a USB drive. In this case, screen readers may not be available at that prompt. The only way to circumvent this is turning off BitLocker completely 9unless your organization's policy says otherwise). I'll forward this to another list to see if folks there have any answers.
