Yet you can manually start a program like Narator from the login
screen. You'd think it'd be the same thing.

That's because your desktop, hot keys, and so on, are user-specific. When you're at the login prompt, you are not a specific user, so you are not using a psecific desktop, and as a result, no hotkeys have been defined. It's a security measure. The whole idea of the login prompt is that you shouldn't be able to manually start any programs before you're logged in.

Okay, the thread regarding JFW in the login prompt raises an interesting question. How would one start a JFW session from the login prompt after a user has turned it off? I tried exiting JFW, logging out, then hitting my JFW hotkey after having set it up to run as a service, but nothing happened. I could log in regardless, and after I logged in, I ran the program as per normal. However, has FS documented a way of starting it from the login prompt, rather than having to actually log in first?--
