And like mentioned here the Win + B really is a Windiws, not a screen reader shortcut, and when using it the Application key activates the systray application menu whatever screen reader is used or not. But for some reason some screen reader manufacturers have added a screen reader dependent shortcut key to access the system tray and others. That seems both very practical but confusing, on the other hand, because some times it may be difficult to make difference between the Windows and the screen reader shortcuts. That's not a very big problem when using the applications by yourself, but when assisting somebody who uses another screen reader or no screen reader at all that may be a bit confusing some times, but not for advanced users who are aware of the differences.
