Hi Mark,
Go to My Computer. From the Tools menu, select Folder
Options. Navigate to the View tab. Tab down to the section
titled "Advanced Settings, where there is a list of check
boxes and radio buttons. Down (or up) arrow until you hear
"Hide extensions for known file types". Make sure this in
unchecked. Click O.K. until you are back at the main My
Computer screen.
Files extensions for all files will now be displayed.
George.

Dear Christopher
I have done this, and when I first of all go into my "C"
drive it reads out the file extension for the first file
type, but then not for the rest. I have opened the view
menu as you suggest, but somehow the option does not seem to
work every time I arrow around the documents or folders?
Do I need to have some kind of setting activated in my jaws
version 7?
Many thanks
Regards
Mark

Hi Mark,
when in the list of documents, press alt v and it
will come up in the view menu, tap the letter d this will
make sure that you have the details displayed at the end of
the file name.
Hope that this helps.

Subject: [jaws-uk] File Types and Folders or
Documents
Dear all
Not sure if these two issues are a Jaws
issue or a windows issues?
1. How can I please find out with JFW 7.0
what types of documents I have stored on my PC, ie, a Doc
format file, a PDF format file or an HTML format. I am
aware that documents have file extensions after their names,
but jaws does not seem to be reading this out to me?
2. When I am arrowing around the files in
either owners documents or on my "C" drive, is there a way
in which jaws can tell me if the file name is either a
folder or document please? I think there is a different
type of visual symbol on the screen, but can not hear Jaws
telling me if I am on a folder with files in it or an actual
file document.
Many thanks for any help with this query.
Best wishes
Mark
