ALT ESCAPE TAKES YOU THROUGH THE OPEN WINDOWS.

  Sorry, I meant control escape.  My mistake.   I know it works with the older 
versions of jaws but it's more of a windows command anyway, so should still 
work now.

  Alice,

   

  No. It doesn't work with JAWS 11, either. I think she may have made a mistake 
in the suggestion.

    I am using JAWS 9, and alt escape does othing. It does not take me to the 
start menu. 

        Is this a feature of later versions of JAWS? 

    Thanks!

      You can also get to the start menu by pressing alt+escape.  I know that 
doesnt help much when trying to get to the desktop, but still.

      that is strange.  Your best bet is to do a control escape, then press 
escape again, this will get you to the start button then you wil have to tab to 
the desktop. 

      I would suggest getting an external keyboard whether its USB or wireless.

        Hello,

         

        I just picked up an older laptop and I'm using Jaws 10. The laptop 
doesn't have a windows key, so I'm wondering how I would minimize things to get 
to the desktop, (normally, Windows key plus letter m)

         

        Thanks.
