Ann,
If you have other versions of JAWS, and you've rebooted with one that has the
"automatic start" turned off, that may be your problem. If you have JAWS 10
active (check your Help/About dialog) then close and reopen and make sure that
the "Automatic start" is still checked. I can't see why anything else at that
point could cause that version of JAWS to not load on reboot.
In other words, perhaps you're rebooting with a different version of JAWS that
is not set to automatically load.

Yes I just went there and automatic is checked.
I might uninstall Jaws10 and reinstall. It is not a big deal because all my
hot keys work for Jaws 7.1 through Jaws10.
I'll let you know the outcome if I uninstall.

Ann,
At this point, the only thing I can suggest is that you open JAWS (Ins+J)
and then in the Options/Basics dialog, make sure that "Automatically Start
JAWS" is checked.

Hi Dave and Everyone,
Thanks for all your feedback. Well at the time of my typo I just turned
off machine because I did not know what windows+l did.
My problem is that Jaws will not come up after rebooting. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ann

Ann,
Have you been able to resolve? I see you've been given several
different instructions.
If you're running with a password requiring you to start Windows, then
after Windows+L you'll need to enter your password to unlock.
If you are working in an environment where the network is managed by a
server then you'll usually be prompted to press Ctrl+Alt+Delete to initiate the
password entry process. However most individual computers don't have this
nuance.
Simply put, unless you have a password, just hit enter and you'll be
back in your desktop.
BTW Windows+U is the utility manager and narrator usually comes up, but
it is not the panacea for Windows+L.
Also Windows +L is not a toggle for Windows+L.

Hi All,
I typed windows+l which is the key combo to lock the key board. I
was forced to reboot. I did not know what this key was so is there a way to
unloc the keyboard, like shift+windows+l?
Also as a result of my typo, when I reboot JFW10 in Windows XP will
no longer automatically come up after rebooting. I went into Jaws window and
box is checked.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Ann
