I didn't know about the ctrl+Windows+l keystroke. When was it introduced?

Hello Flor and Chris,
Many many thanks for your solutions to my German language problem. Flor;
your step by step,-down arrow twice, right arrow once etc.0 was what enabled
me to finally reach the proper list. Since those menus were being read to
me in Jaws version of German, they were neither G. or E., and I couldn't
tell where I was. It took me a half hour just to figure out what your
message said. Chris; your short cut is great since it avoids all the above.
Not being able to rid my computer of German locked up my machine for a
couple of days.
Thanks again, Bob S.

1. Bring up the JAWS context menu.
2. Down-arrow twice, and right-arrow once.
3. Down-arrow once, and right-arrow once.
You are now in the Synthesizer Language Submenu, from where you choose
your language.

Dear list,
Sorry the following turned out so long, but do need help!
Being interested in learning German, I found a couple of web sites
that look promising. I thought, though, that before down loading anything I
should check to see if Jaws would be able to read that language properly
when it appears on the screen. I went to Jaws 6 which is on my desktop,
entered, which brought up the context menu. I entered on open; found
language, and entered, found two items: Jaws language, which as I remember
contained American English, English, and Spanish. (sorry this is getting
so long)! closed that, and on the previous list found, language
synthesizer. Entered on that, and lo and behold found a long list of
foreign languages including German. Entered on that dis covered it did a
really good job of reading everything in my computer with a almost
un-understandable German accent; but did a beautiful job with some real
German I typed in.
Now the problem. I couldn't turn off the German talk!!! I tried
everything I know-which isn't very much; including reboot, complete turn
off. German was still there when computer turned back on. Finally after a
couple of hours, and an over-night rest and turning on computer again, and
some more piking around, German disappeared and English Jaws returned. My
question finally is, what should I do to close down the use of German and
returning to English?
