It is also possible to change this setting via the JAWS Config manager. Just
hit JAWS key plus 2 on the numbers row. You'll want to go into the default
config manager if you want keys muted for all programs, and to get there hit
control+shift+D while in the JAWS config manager. This will bring up the
default config manager, then you need to hit alt+S to get into the options
menu, and hit Enter on the first set of options that comes up. This is the User
options dialogue, and tab until you get to key echo. Hope that helps some
more.Once you've adjusted the setting the way you like it, tab to the OK button
and click it. Hit alt+F4 to save and exit config manager and you're done.

Troy, Jaws key plus 2 on the num row changes the typing echo setting. Also
you can change it with Jaws key V, then T for typing echo and toggle among the
settings with the space bar.

Subject: problem with Jaws 8 muting keys
Hello All,
I have muted a bunch of keys under the configuration manager in the default
for Jaws 8 but the keys are still being spoken when I press them. Can
anybody help?
After I muted all the keys I wanted to the first time and found out that it
didn't work I went back to verify that they were muted and they were, and I
have tried shutting down Jaws and restarting it as well as totally rebooting
with no success.
I don't know if this has anything to do with it but I had Jaws 8 installed
recently but it was freezing on some web pages so I uninstalled it and went
back to Jaws 7. Jaws 7 was doing some stuff that I didn't like either so I
reinstalled version 8 and that's when the problem mentioned above started
happening where the keys are muted in the configuration manager but they are
still being spoken.
Troy
