You need to use the insert key on the laptop layout…not the enter key

Hi, even when using the laptop layout the caps lock won’t allow you to use JKL 
and the letters above and below as they will act as if you were using the 
number keypad without the num lock on.

Brandon,
 
On a laptop you need to use CapsLock + J. CapsLock is the alternate to Insert 
on a laptop layout, if you have that selected in your JAWS/Options/Basics 
dialog.

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
