?Actually, caps lock plus j reads the previous word. You need to press the 
actual insert key found besides the delete key on most laptop keyboards.

Insert+J on the laptop doesn't do anything. Is there another command to bring 
up Jaws on the laptop lay-out?
Thanks,

This is my method, too. fortunately, almost every hard key combination is for a 
rarely used operation. the one I hate the most is the virtualized window 
command, reassigned in JAWS 11 to JAWS key-alt-w. but the one no one has 
complained about is insert-j for the JAWS menus. Now that's unnatural, 
requiring you to use the left index finger for a key otherwise pressed with the 
right hand.

You'll notice I'm using the desktop layout.

HI Dave;

The way I invoke this keystroke is, right little finger on the Insert key, 
right thumb on the windows key, & press the F4 key with the left index finger.  
I have small hands so, I have to be creative with some keystrokes that should 
be part of that game called " Twister ."  LOLLOL

  Michael,

  That keystroke is supposed to completely (and very quickly) kill JAWS and 
  simultaneously create a debug file dump for analysis purposes. If you didn't 
  notice anything, then perhaps you didn't actually hit the Windows key.

  I agree with you. Some of these keystrokes actually hurt my 58-year-old 
  fingers.

  Mike mentioned some command of jaws key + windows key + F4. Using the
  insert key on the numpad, that's a really difficult stretch. In my
  perfect world, the jaws key would be in the middle of the keyboard
  right below the spacebar. I hate having to jump all the way over to
  the numpad with my right hand and frequently have to move my left
  hand out of position to cover a certain key, then have to move both
  hands back. Seems so inefficient...

  btw, what does this keystroke do? I tried it and heard my computer
  make a little sci-fi sound. Figured I'd better do it a second time to
  toggle it off, whatever it was.

  Michael
