Hi,
I have done all this already and it still does not work correctly 100% of
the time.

Hi, look do the following and your problem will go away
One open the control panel. To do this
1 press the start button windows key.
Press the letter c.
2. now go to the task bar option. You can access this with the letter

In the task bar tab you need to unmark the hide inactive icons.
Press enter close control panel and now the jaws list system tray icons

Hi,
I've had this problem though primarily with the Select A System Tray
dialog
box. Jaws has a difficult time correctly placing focus in this window
for
some reason. About 70% of the time I can reliably select the firstor
second
option in this window. Anything below that and Jaws doesn't properly
select
the item that Jaws is reading. The only way I've been able to reliably
access the System Tray is by accessing it on the task bar and I do it
this
way:
1. Open the Start Menu
2. Hit escape.
3. Tab over to the System Tray button. Jaws will only say button here.
You'll know you've passed it if you hear Jaws say Desktop.
4. Press Spacebar.
5. Now you can either arrow down to the item you want or press the
first
letter of the desired item. Then you can either hit Enter on it to
perform
what is essentially a double-left mouse click or you can press the
context-menu button to perform a right-mouse click function.
Note: I know this sounds dumb, but you have to do this correct the
first
time. If you Tab over to the system tray button, press the spacebar and
then
accidently press the left or right arrow key, or even if you tab again
after
having selected the button, it seems to mess everything up. To correct
it,
I'll Alt-Tab a couple of times, refresh the screen, then start the
process
all over again. It's a hassle, I know, and I really wish Freedom
Scientific
would address this problem with the System Tray. If Insert-F11 can't
work
reliably, then why even have the feature?
