Maybe you should try interacting with the interface after selecting it in 
MenuExtras.
I have never had to do this on either of my Macs, but it is worth a try 
nonetheless.

I think if it is in the MenuExtras area, it is running.
Once you have gone to MenuExtras, and put focus on Encrypt.me 
, I assume you do a VO + spacebar to activate the item.
Once you have activated the item, use VO + right/left arrow to navigate the 
interface.
When you have located Settings, press VO + Spacebar to open the menu, and arrow 
down to Quit.
If that doesn’t do it, try restarting your Mac.

What do you mean by it is open when you try to delete it?
The interface closes when you CMD + Tab, away from it.  It will return when you 
go back to MenuExtras, and select it again.
If you want to exit Encrypt.me  while it is running, do the 
following:
1.  Go to MenuExtras, and select Encrypt.me  to open the 
interface
2.  Navigate to Settings, and arrow down to Quit Encrypt.me 
.

Re: Mannually Checking the Spellings in TextEdit?

2021-02-08 Thread Brad Snyder 
Highlight the mis-spelled word, and open the Shortcut menu, using VO + Shift + 
M.
You can also go the MenuBar, select the Edit menu, and arrow down to the 
Spelling and Grammar submenu.

Re: accessible vpn

2021-02-08 Thread Brad Snyder 
Yes, now I know what you are referring to.
When you go to the MenuExtras area, and select the Encrypt.me 
 item, it opens an interface.
To close the interface, just do CMD + Tab, and select Finder or any running 
application, and this will close the Encrypt.me  interface.
