I already have a shortcut key for starting JAWS. But how do you close JAWS after a crash if you can't see the screen and use the computer mouse?

    Yes do the following

    Tap the windows key, and the start menu pops up

    Tap the letter on your keyboard, and a run dialog box pops up

    Type the version of jaws in the box, i.e. jaws9 if you are running
    that version, and hit enter and jaws will start.

    Occasionally, a crash or other glitch causes JAWS  to stop
    speaking.  When this happens, is there any way to close and
    restart JAWS without sighted assistance to restore it to
    normal? Thanks.

Hi, Try insert windows f4.  That should do it.
