I would also like to add, when you hold down the CTRL key and you press either the UP or DOWN ARROW keys, depending whether you want to select files in the forward or backward direction,the file to which you gave focus gets selected. JAWS does not tell you that the file has been selected. This is because focus has been given to the next or previous file in the list. JAWS says "unselected", before saying the name of the file.

When your focus is on the first item you wish to select you press the control key while pressing the down arrow. When you come to an item you want add to your selection list you press control and space and so on. HopI made it plain enough. Of course once you have every item selected you want you do the normal control c or x depending on whether you want to copy or cut to the clip board.
