Hi Chris;
Thank you very much for this great tip but, with what Operating System does
this tip refer to? In XP Pro& Home when you invoke the Windows key + E
keystroke, Jaws reads, "My Computer, Tree view, My Computer Open ", then
when you open the configuration manager jaws reads, " Internet Explorer .JCF
Jaws Configuration Manager. " I tried opening Windows Explorer through
Start Menu / Programs / Accessories / Windows Explorer and received the same
results as using the Windows + E keystroke. The question is, how does a
person get into the Windows Explorer .JCF using XP Home or Pro? All help
will be greatly appreciated. Thanks much. Take care.
Mike

Hi, Chris. Would you shed some light on how JAWS becomes less chatty with
"control type" checked? Thanks.

Subject: Making JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer
Hello all, I've heard about this on another list so thought I would pass
this on. To make JAWS less chatty in Windows Explorer:
1. Open Windows Explorer. Then, press insert+6 to open Configuration
Manager. It should say, "explorerframe.jcf - JAWS Configuration Manager".
This is fine as you should only do this for Windows Explorer.
2. Press alt+s to open the set options menu, then v to open the Verbosity
Options dialogue box.
3. Tab to the preferences button corresponding to your current verbosity
level and activate it.
4. Down arrow till you hear, "control type checked". Press space and you
should hear, "control type not checked".
5. Press enter to activate the ok button.
6. Back in the Verbosity Options dialogue box, tab to the ok button and
activate it.
7. Save your changes with ctrl+s.
8. Close Configuration Manager with alt+f4.
Hope this helps!
